Ec2InstanceAttributes (dict) --
Provides information about the EC2 instances in a cluster grouped by category. For example, key name, subnet ID, IAM instance profile, and so on.
Ec2KeyName (string) --
The name of the Amazon EC2 key pair to use when connecting with SSH into the master node as a user named "hadoop".
Ec2SubnetId (string) --
To launch the cluster in Amazon VPC, set this parameter to the identifier of the Amazon VPC subnet where you want the cluster to launch. If you do not specify this value, the cluster is launched in the normal AWS cloud, outside of a VPC.
Amazon VPC currently does not support cluster compute quadruple extra large (cc1.4xlarge) instances. Thus, you cannot specify the cc1.4xlarge instance type for nodes of a cluster launched in a VPC.
RequestedEc2SubnetIds (list) --
Applies to clusters configured with the instance fleets option. Specifies the unique identifier of one or more Amazon EC2 subnets in which to launch EC2 cluster instances. Subnets must exist within the same VPC. Amazon EMR chooses the EC2 subnet with the best fit from among the list of RequestedEc2SubnetIds , and then launches all cluster instances within that Subnet. If this value is not specified, and the account and region support EC2-Classic networks, the cluster launches instances in the EC2-Classic network and uses RequestedEc2AvailabilityZones instead of this setting. If EC2-Classic is not supported, and no Subnet is specified, Amazon EMR chooses the subnet for you. RequestedEc2SubnetIDs and RequestedEc2AvailabilityZones cannot be specified together.
(string) --
Ec2AvailabilityZone (string) --
The Availability Zone in which the cluster will run.
RequestedEc2AvailabilityZones (list) --
Applies to clusters configured with the instance fleets option. Specifies one or more Availability Zones in which to launch EC2 cluster instances when the EC2-Classic network configuration is supported. Amazon EMR chooses the Availability Zone with the best fit from among the list of RequestedEc2AvailabilityZones , and then launches all cluster instances within that Availability Zone. If you do not specify this value, Amazon EMR chooses the Availability Zone for you. RequestedEc2SubnetIDs and RequestedEc2AvailabilityZones cannot be specified together.
(string) --
IamInstanceProfile (string) --
The IAM role that was specified when the cluster was launched. The EC2 instances of the cluster assume this role.
EmrManagedMasterSecurityGroup (string) --
The identifier of the Amazon EC2 security group for the master node.
EmrManagedSlaveSecurityGroup (string) --
The identifier of the Amazon EC2 security group for the slave nodes.
ServiceAccessSecurityGroup (string) --
The identifier of the Amazon EC2 security group for the Amazon EMR service to access clusters in VPC private subnets.
AdditionalMasterSecurityGroups (list) --
A list of additional Amazon EC2 security group IDs for the master node.
(string) --
AdditionalSlaveSecurityGroups (list) --
A list of additional Amazon EC2 security group IDs for the slave nodes.
(string) --
InstanceCollectionType (string) --
Note
The instance fleet configuration is available only in Amazon EMR versions 4.8.0 and later, excluding 5.0.x versions.
The instance group configuration of the cluster. A value of INSTANCE_GROUP indicates a uniform instance group configuration. A value of INSTANCE_FLEET indicates an instance fleets configuration.

Indicates whether Amazon EMR will lock the cluster to prevent the EC2 instances from being terminated by an API call or user intervention, or in the event of a cluster error.
VisibleToAllUsers (boolean) --
Indicates whether the cluster is visible to all IAM users of the AWS account associated with the cluster. If this value is set to true , all IAM users of that AWS account can view and manage the cluster if they have the proper policy permissions set. If this value is false , only the IAM user that created the cluster can view and manage it. This value can be changed using the SetVisibleToAllUsers action.
Applications (list) --
The applications installed on this cluster.
(dict) --
An application is any Amazon or third-party software that you can add to the cluster. This structure contains a list of strings that indicates the software to use with the cluster and accepts a user argument list. Amazon EMR accepts and forwards the argument list to the corresponding installation script as bootstrap action argument. For more information, see Using the MapR Distribution for Hadoop . Currently supported values are:
"mapr-m3" - launch the cluster using MapR M3 Edition.
"mapr-m5" - launch the cluster using MapR M5 Edition.
"mapr" with the user arguments specifying "--edition,m3" or "--edition,m5" - launch the cluster using MapR M3 or M5 Edition, respectively.
Note
In Amazon EMR releases 4.x and later, the only accepted parameter is the application name. To pass arguments to applications, you supply a configuration for each application.
Name (string) --
The name of the application.
Version (string) --
The version of the application.
Args (list) --
Arguments for Amazon EMR to pass to the application.
(string) --

(string) --
(string) --
Tags (list) --
A list of tags associated with a cluster.
(dict) --
A key/value pair containing user-defined metadata that you can associate with an Amazon EMR resource. Tags make it easier to associate clusters in various ways, such as grouping clusters to track your Amazon EMR resource allocation costs. For more information, see Tag Clusters .
Key (string) --
A user-defined key, which is the minimum required information for a valid tag. For more information, see Tag .
Value (string) --
A user-defined value, which is optional in a tag. For more information, see Tag Clusters .
ServiceRole (string) --
The IAM role that will be assumed by the Amazon EMR service to access AWS resources on your behalf.
NormalizedInstanceHours (integer) --
An approximation of the cost of the cluster, represented in m1.small/hours. This value is incremented one time for every hour an m1.small instance runs. Larger instances are weighted more, so an EC2 instance that is roughly four times more expensive would result in the normalized instance hours being incremented by four. This result is only an approximation and does not reflect the actual billing rate.
MasterPublicDnsName (string) --
The DNS name of the master node. If the cluster is on a private subnet, this is the private DNS name. On a public subnet, this is the public DNS name.
Configurations (list) --
Applies only to Amazon EMR releases 4.x and later. The list of Configurations supplied to the EMR cluster.
(dict) --
Note
Amazon EMR releases 4.x or later.
An optional configuration specification to be used when provisioning cluster instances, which can include configurations for applications and software bundled with Amazon EMR. A configuration consists of a classification, properties, and optional nested configurations. A classification refers to an application-specific configuration file. Properties are the settings you want to change in that file. For more information, see Configuring Applications .
Classification (string) --
The classification within a configuration.
Configurations (list) --
A list of additional configurations to apply within a configuration object.
Properties (dict) --
A set of properties specified within a configuration classification.
(string) --
(string) --
SecurityConfiguration (string) --
The name of the security configuration applied to the cluster.
AutoScalingRole (string) --
An IAM role for automatic scaling policies. The default role is EMR_AutoScaling_DefaultRole . The IAM role provides permissions that the automatic scaling feature requires to launch and terminate EC2 instances in an instance group.
ScaleDownBehavior (string) --
The way that individual Amazon EC2 instances terminate when an automatic scale-in activity occurs or an instance group is resized. TERMINATE_AT_INSTANCE_HOUR indicates that Amazon EMR terminates nodes at the instance-hour boundary, regardless of when the request to terminate the instance was submitted. This option is only available with Amazon EMR 5.1.0 and later and is the default for clusters created using that version. TERMINATE_AT_TASK_COMPLETION indicates that Amazon EMR blacklists and drains tasks from nodes before terminating the Amazon EC2 instances, regardless of the instance-hour boundary. With either behavior, Amazon EMR removes the least active nodes first and blocks instance termination if it could lead to HDFS corruption. TERMINATE_AT_TASK_COMPLETION is available only in Amazon EMR version 4.1.0 and later, and is the default for versions of Amazon EMR earlier than 5.1.0.
CustomAmiId (string) --
Available only in Amazon EMR version 5.7.0 and later. The ID of a custom Amazon EBS-backed Linux AMI if the cluster uses a custom AMI.
EbsRootVolumeSize (integer) --
The size, in GiB, of the EBS root device volume of the Linux AMI that is used for each EC2 instance. Available in Amazon EMR version 4.x and later.
RepoUpgradeOnBoot (string) --
Applies only when CustomAmiID is used. Specifies the type of updates that are applied from the Amazon Linux AMI package repositories when an instance boots using the AMI.
KerberosAttributes (dict) --
Attributes for Kerberos configuration when Kerberos authentication is enabled using a security configuration. For more information see Use Kerberos Authentication in the EMR Management Guide .
Realm (string) --
The name of the Kerberos realm to which all nodes in a cluster belong. For example, EC2.INTERNAL .
KdcAdminPassword (string) --
The password used within the cluster for the kadmin service on the cluster-dedicated KDC, which maintains Kerberos principals, password policies, and keytabs for the cluster.
CrossRealmTrustPrincipalPassword (string) --
Required only when establishing a cross-realm trust with a KDC in a different realm. The cross-realm principal password, which must be identical across realms.
ADDomainJoinUser (string) --
Required only when establishing a cross-realm trust with an Active Directory domain. A user with sufficient privileges to join resources to the domain.
ADDomainJoinPassword (string) --
The Active Directory password for ADDomainJoinUser .

RunJobFlow creates and starts running a new cluster (job flow). The cluster runs the steps specified. After the steps complete, the cluster stops and the HDFS partition is lost. To prevent loss of data, configure the last step of the job flow to store results in Amazon S3. If the JobFlowInstancesConfig KeepJobFlowAliveWhenNoSteps parameter is set to TRUE , the cluster transitions to the WAITING state rather than shutting down after the steps have completed.
For additional protection, you can set the JobFlowInstancesConfig TerminationProtected parameter to TRUE to lock the cluster and prevent it from being terminated by API call, user intervention, or in the event of a job flow error.
A maximum of 256 steps are allowed in each job flow.
If your cluster is long-running (such as a Hive data warehouse) or complex, you may require more than 256 steps to process your data. You can bypass the 256-step limitation in various ways, including using the SSH shell to connect to the master node and submitting queries directly to the software running on the master node, such as Hive and Hadoop. For more information on how to do this, see Add More than 256 Steps to a Cluster in the Amazon EMR Management Guide .
For long running clusters, we recommend that you periodically store your results.
Note
The instance fleets configuration is available only in Amazon EMR versions 4.8.0 and later, excluding 5.0.x versions. The RunJobFlow request can contain InstanceFleets parameters or InstanceGroups parameters, but not both.

string
[REQUIRED]
The name of the job flow.
string
The location in Amazon S3 to write the log files of the job flow. If a value is not provided, logs are not created.
string
A JSON string for selecting additional features.
string
For Amazon EMR AMI versions 3.x and 2.x. For Amazon EMR releases 4.0 and later, the Linux AMI is determined by the ReleaseLabel specified or by CustomAmiID . The version of the Amazon Machine Image (AMI) to use when launching Amazon EC2 instances in the job flow. For details about the AMI versions currently supported in EMR version 3.x and 2.x, see AMI Versions Supported in EMR in the Amazon EMR Developer Guide .
If the AMI supports multiple versions of Hadoop (for example, AMI 1.0 supports both Hadoop 0.18 and 0.20), you can use the JobFlowInstancesConfig HadoopVersion parameter to modify the version of Hadoop from the defaults shown above.
Note
Previously, the EMR AMI version API parameter options allowed you to use latest for the latest AMI version rather than specify a numerical value. Some regions no longer support this deprecated option as they only have a newer release label version of EMR, which requires you to specify an EMR release label release (EMR 4.x or later).
string
The release label for the Amazon EMR release. For Amazon EMR 3.x and 2.x AMIs, use AmiVersion instead.

The way in which EC2 instances are added (if ScalingAdjustment is a positive number) or terminated (if ScalingAdjustment is a negative number) each time the scaling activity is triggered. CHANGE_IN_CAPACITY is the default. CHANGE_IN_CAPACITY indicates that the EC2 instance count increments or decrements by ScalingAdjustment , which should be expressed as an integer. PERCENT_CHANGE_IN_CAPACITY indicates the instance count increments or decrements by the percentage specified by ScalingAdjustment , which should be expressed as an integer. For example, 20 indicates an increase in 20% increments of cluster capacity. EXACT_CAPACITY indicates the scaling activity results in an instance group with the number of EC2 instances specified by ScalingAdjustment , which should be expressed as a positive integer.

When the instance fleet launches, Amazon EMR tries to provision On-Demand instances as specified by InstanceTypeConfig . Each instance configuration has a specified WeightedCapacity . When an On-Demand instance is provisioned, the WeightedCapacity units count toward the target capacity. Amazon EMR provisions instances until the target capacity is totally fulfilled, even if this results in an overage. For example, if there are 2 units remaining to fulfill capacity, and Amazon EMR can only provision an instance with a WeightedCapacity of 5 units, the instance is provisioned, and the target capacity is exceeded by 3 units.
Note
If not specified or set to 0, only Spot instances are provisioned for the instance fleet using TargetSpotCapacity . At least one of TargetSpotCapacity and TargetOnDemandCapacity should be greater than 0. For a master instance fleet, only one of TargetSpotCapacity and TargetOnDemandCapacity can be specified, and its value must be 1.
TargetSpotCapacity (integer) --
The target capacity of Spot units for the instance fleet, which determines how many Spot instances to provision. When the instance fleet launches, Amazon EMR tries to provision Spot instances as specified by InstanceTypeConfig . Each instance configuration has a specified WeightedCapacity . When a Spot instance is provisioned, the WeightedCapacity units count toward the target capacity. Amazon EMR provisions instances until the target capacity is totally fulfilled, even if this results in an overage. For example, if there are 2 units remaining to fulfill capacity, and Amazon EMR can only provision an instance with a WeightedCapacity of 5 units, the instance is provisioned, and the target capacity is exceeded by 3 units.
Note
If not specified or set to 0, only On-Demand instances are provisioned for the instance fleet. At least one of TargetSpotCapacity and TargetOnDemandCapacity should be greater than 0.

If you do not set this value, the default of 0.18 is used, unless the AmiVersion parameter is set in the RunJobFlow call, in which case the default version of Hadoop for that AMI version is used.
Ec2SubnetId (string) --
Applies to clusters that use the uniform instance group configuration. To launch the cluster in Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC), set this parameter to the identifier of the Amazon VPC subnet where you want the cluster to launch. If you do not specify this value, the cluster launches in the normal Amazon Web Services cloud, outside of an Amazon VPC, if the account launching the cluster supports EC2 Classic networks in the region where the cluster launches.
Amazon VPC currently does not support cluster compute quadruple extra large (cc1.4xlarge) instances. Thus you cannot specify the cc1.4xlarge instance type for clusters launched in an Amazon VPC.
