AWS API Changes

2020/02/12 - Amazon Neptune - 2 new api methods

Changes This launch enables Neptune start-db-cluster and stop-db-cluster. Stopping and starting Amazon Neptune clusters helps you manage costs for development and test environments. You can temporarily stop all the DB instances in your cluster, instead of setting up and tearing down all the DB instances each time that you use the cluster.

StartDBCluster (new)

Link ¶

Starts an Amazon Neptune DB cluster that was stopped using the AWS console, the AWS CLI stop-db-cluster command, or the StopDBCluster API.

Response Structure

(dict) --
- DBCluster (dict) --
  
  Contains the details of an Amazon Neptune DB cluster.
  
  This data type is used as a response element in the DescribeDBClusters action.
  - AllocatedStorage (integer) --
    
    AllocatedStorage always returns 1, because Neptune DB cluster storage size is not fixed, but instead automatically adjusts as needed.
  - AvailabilityZones (list) --
    
    Provides the list of EC2 Availability Zones that instances in the DB cluster can be created in.
    - (string) --
  - BackupRetentionPeriod (integer) --
    
    Specifies the number of days for which automatic DB snapshots are retained.
  - CharacterSetName (string) --
    
    (Not supported by Neptune)
  - DatabaseName (string) --
    
    Contains the name of the initial database of this DB cluster that was provided at create time, if one was specified when the DB cluster was created. This same name is returned for the life of the DB cluster.
  - DBClusterIdentifier (string) --
    
    Contains a user-supplied DB cluster identifier. This identifier is the unique key that identifies a DB cluster.
  - DBClusterParameterGroup (string) --
    
    Specifies the name of the DB cluster parameter group for the DB cluster.
  - DBSubnetGroup (string) --
    
    Specifies information on the subnet group associated with the DB cluster, including the name, description, and subnets in the subnet group.
  - Status (string) --
    
    Specifies the current state of this DB cluster.
  - PercentProgress (string) --
    
    Specifies the progress of the operation as a percentage.
  - EarliestRestorableTime (datetime) --
    
    Specifies the earliest time to which a database can be restored with point-in-time restore.
  - Endpoint (string) --
    
    Specifies the connection endpoint for the primary instance of the DB cluster.
  - ReaderEndpoint (string) --
    
    The reader endpoint for the DB cluster. The reader endpoint for a DB cluster load-balances connections across the Read Replicas that are available in a DB cluster. As clients request new connections to the reader endpoint, Neptune distributes the connection requests among the Read Replicas in the DB cluster. This functionality can help balance your read workload across multiple Read Replicas in your DB cluster.
    
    If a failover occurs, and the Read Replica that you are connected to is promoted to be the primary instance, your connection is dropped. To continue sending your read workload to other Read Replicas in the cluster, you can then reconnect to the reader endpoint.
  - MultiAZ (boolean) --
    
    Specifies whether the DB cluster has instances in multiple Availability Zones.
  - Engine (string) --
    
    Provides the name of the database engine to be used for this DB cluster.
  - EngineVersion (string) --
    
    Indicates the database engine version.
  - LatestRestorableTime (datetime) --
    
    Specifies the latest time to which a database can be restored with point-in-time restore.
  - Port (integer) --
    
    Specifies the port that the database engine is listening on.
  - MasterUsername (string) --
    
    Contains the master username for the DB cluster.
  - DBClusterOptionGroupMemberships (list) --

        Specifies the status of the DB cluster option group.
  - PreferredBackupWindow (string) --
    
    Specifies the daily time range during which automated backups are created if automated backups are enabled, as determined by the BackupRetentionPeriod .
  - PreferredMaintenanceWindow (string) --
    
    Specifies the weekly time range during which system maintenance can occur, in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).
  - ReplicationSourceIdentifier (string) --
    
    Not supported by Neptune.
  - ReadReplicaIdentifiers (list) --
    
    Contains one or more identifiers of the Read Replicas associated with this DB cluster.

      - PromotionTier (integer) --
        
        A value that specifies the order in which a Read Replica is promoted to the primary instance after a failure of the existing primary instance.
  - VpcSecurityGroups (list) --
    
    Provides a list of VPC security groups that the DB cluster belongs to.
    - (dict) --
      
      This data type is used as a response element for queries on VPC security group membership.
      - VpcSecurityGroupId (string) --
        
        The name of the VPC security group.

      - Status (string) --
        
        Describes the state of association between the IAM role and the DB cluster. The Status property returns one of the following values:
        
        ACTIVE - the IAM role ARN is associated with the DB cluster and can be used to access other AWS services on your behalf.
        
        PENDING - the IAM role ARN is being associated with the DB cluster.
        
        INVALID - the IAM role ARN is associated with the DB cluster, but the DB cluster is unable to assume the IAM role in order to access other AWS services on your behalf.
