          The scaling policy type.

        • StepScalingPolicyConfiguration (dict) --

          A step scaling policy.

          • AdjustmentType (string) --

            Specifies whether the ScalingAdjustment value in a StepAdjustment is an absolute number or a percentage of the current capacity.

            AdjustmentType is required if you are adding a new step scaling policy configuration.

          • StepAdjustments (list) --

            A set of adjustments that enable you to scale based on the size of the alarm breach.

            At least one step adjustment is required if you are adding a new step scaling policy configuration.

            • (dict) --

              Represents a step adjustment for a StepScalingPolicyConfiguration . Describes an adjustment based on the difference between the value of the aggregated CloudWatch metric and the breach threshold that you've defined for the alarm.

              For the following examples, suppose that you have an alarm with a breach threshold of 50:

              • To trigger the adjustment when the metric is greater than or equal to 50 and less than 60, specify a lower bound of 0 and an upper bound of 10.

              • To trigger the adjustment when the metric is greater than 40 and less than or equal to 50, specify a lower bound of -10 and an upper bound of 0.

              There are a few rules for the step adjustments for your step policy:

              • The ranges of your step adjustments can't overlap or have a gap.

              • At most one step adjustment can have a null lower bound. If one step adjustment has a negative lower bound, then there must be a step adjustment with a null lower bound.

              • At most one step adjustment can have a null upper bound. If one step adjustment has a positive upper bound, then there must be a step adjustment with a null upper bound.

              • The upper and lower bound can't be null in the same step adjustment.

              • MetricIntervalLowerBound (float) --

                The lower bound for the difference between the alarm threshold and the CloudWatch metric. If the metric value is above the breach threshold, the lower bound is inclusive (the metric must be greater than or equal to the threshold plus the lower bound). Otherwise, it is exclusive (the metric must be greater than the threshold plus the lower bound). A null value indicates negative infinity.

              • MetricIntervalUpperBound (float) --

                The upper bound for the difference between the alarm threshold and the CloudWatch metric. If the metric value is above the breach threshold, the upper bound is exclusive (the metric must be less than the threshold plus the upper bound). Otherwise, it is inclusive (the metric must be less than or equal to the threshold plus the upper bound). A null value indicates positive infinity.

                The upper bound must be greater than the lower bound.

              • ScalingAdjustment (integer) --

                The amount by which to scale, based on the specified adjustment type. A positive value adds to the current capacity while a negative number removes from the current capacity.

          • MinAdjustmentMagnitude (integer) --

            The minimum value to scale by when scaling by percentages. For example, suppose that you create a step scaling policy to scale out an Amazon ECS service by 25 percent and you specify a MinAdjustmentMagnitude of 2. If the service has 4 tasks and the scaling policy is performed, 25 percent of 4 is 1. However, because you specified a MinAdjustmentMagnitude of 2, Application Auto Scaling scales out the service by 2 tasks.

            Valid only if the adjustment type is PercentChangeInCapacity .

          • Cooldown (integer) --

            The amount of time, in seconds, after a scaling activity completes where previous trigger-related scaling activities can influence future scaling events.

            For scale-out policies, while the cooldown period is in effect, the capacity that has been added by the previous scale-out action that initiated the cooldown is calculated as part of the desired capacity for the next scale out. The intention is to continuously (but not excessively) scale out. For example, an alarm triggers a step scaling policy to scale out an Amazon ECS service by 2 tasks, the scaling activity completes successfully, and a cooldown period of 5 minutes starts. During the cooldown period, if the alarm triggers the same policy again but at a more aggressive step adjustment to scale out the service by 3 tasks, the 2 tasks that were added in the previous scale-out action are considered part of that capacity and only 1 additional task is added to the desired count.

            For scale-in policies, the cooldown period is used to block subsequent scale-in requests until it has expired. The intention is to scale in conservatively to protect your application's availability. However, if another alarm triggers a scale-out policy during the cooldown period after a scale-in, Application Auto Scaling scales out your scalable target immediately.

Creates or updates a scaling policy for an Application Auto Scaling scalable target.

Each scalable target is identified by a service namespace, resource ID, and scalable dimension. A scaling policy applies to the scalable target identified by those three attributes. You cannot create a scaling policy until you have registered the resource as a scalable target.

Multiple scaling policies can be in force at the same time for the same scalable target. You can have one or more target tracking scaling policies, one or more step scaling policies, or both. However, there is a chance that multiple policies could conflict, instructing the scalable target to scale out or in at the same time. Application Auto Scaling gives precedence to the policy that provides the largest capacity for both scale out and scale in. For example, if one policy increases capacity by 3, another policy increases capacity by 200 percent, and the current capacity is 10, Application Auto Scaling uses the policy with the highest calculated capacity (200% of 10 = 20) and scales out to 30.

For more information, see Target Tracking Scaling Policies and Step Scaling Policies in the Application Auto Scaling User Guide .

Note

If a scalable target is deregistered, the scalable target is no longer available to execute scaling policies. Any scaling policies that were specified for the scalable target are deleted.

The following policy types are supported:

TargetTrackingScaling —Not supported for Amazon EMR

StepScaling —Not supported for DynamoDB, Amazon Comprehend, Lambda, or Amazon Keyspaces for Apache Cassandra.

For more information, see Target Tracking Scaling Policies and Step Scaling Policies in the Application Auto Scaling User Guide .

type StepScalingPolicyConfiguration

dict

param StepScalingPolicyConfiguration

A step scaling policy.

This parameter is required if you are creating a policy and the policy type is StepScaling .

  • AdjustmentType (string) --

    Specifies whether the ScalingAdjustment value in a StepAdjustment is an absolute number or a percentage of the current capacity.

    AdjustmentType is required if you are adding a new step scaling policy configuration.

  • StepAdjustments (list) --

    A set of adjustments that enable you to scale based on the size of the alarm breach.

    At least one step adjustment is required if you are adding a new step scaling policy configuration.

    • (dict) --

      Represents a step adjustment for a StepScalingPolicyConfiguration . Describes an adjustment based on the difference between the value of the aggregated CloudWatch metric and the breach threshold that you've defined for the alarm.

      For the following examples, suppose that you have an alarm with a breach threshold of 50:

      • To trigger the adjustment when the metric is greater than or equal to 50 and less than 60, specify a lower bound of 0 and an upper bound of 10.

      • To trigger the adjustment when the metric is greater than 40 and less than or equal to 50, specify a lower bound of -10 and an upper bound of 0.

      There are a few rules for the step adjustments for your step policy:

      • The ranges of your step adjustments can't overlap or have a gap.

      • At most one step adjustment can have a null lower bound. If one step adjustment has a negative lower bound, then there must be a step adjustment with a null lower bound.

      • At most one step adjustment can have a null upper bound. If one step adjustment has a positive upper bound, then there must be a step adjustment with a null upper bound.

      • The upper and lower bound can't be null in the same step adjustment.

      • MetricIntervalLowerBound (float) --

        The lower bound for the difference between the alarm threshold and the CloudWatch metric. If the metric value is above the breach threshold, the lower bound is inclusive (the metric must be greater than or equal to the threshold plus the lower bound). Otherwise, it is exclusive (the metric must be greater than the threshold plus the lower bound). A null value indicates negative infinity.

      • MetricIntervalUpperBound (float) --

        The upper bound for the difference between the alarm threshold and the CloudWatch metric. If the metric value is above the breach threshold, the upper bound is exclusive (the metric must be less than the threshold plus the upper bound). Otherwise, it is inclusive (the metric must be less than or equal to the threshold plus the upper bound). A null value indicates positive infinity.

        The upper bound must be greater than the lower bound.

      • ScalingAdjustment (integer) -- [REQUIRED]

        The amount by which to scale, based on the specified adjustment type. A positive value adds to the current capacity while a negative number removes from the current capacity.

  • MinAdjustmentMagnitude (integer) --

    The minimum value to scale by when scaling by percentages. For example, suppose that you create a step scaling policy to scale out an Amazon ECS service by 25 percent and you specify a MinAdjustmentMagnitude of 2. If the service has 4 tasks and the scaling policy is performed, 25 percent of 4 is 1. However, because you specified a MinAdjustmentMagnitude of 2, Application Auto Scaling scales out the service by 2 tasks.

    Valid only if the adjustment type is PercentChangeInCapacity .

  • Cooldown (integer) --

    The amount of time, in seconds, after a scaling activity completes where previous trigger-related scaling activities can influence future scaling events.

    For scale-out policies, while the cooldown period is in effect, the capacity that has been added by the previous scale-out action that initiated the cooldown is calculated as part of the desired capacity for the next scale out. The intention is to continuously (but not excessively) scale out. For example, an alarm triggers a step scaling policy to scale out an Amazon ECS service by 2 tasks, the scaling activity completes successfully, and a cooldown period of 5 minutes starts. During the cooldown period, if the alarm triggers the same policy again but at a more aggressive step adjustment to scale out the service by 3 tasks, the 2 tasks that were added in the previous scale-out action are considered part of that capacity and only 1 additional task is added to the desired count.

    For scale-in policies, the cooldown period is used to block subsequent scale-in requests until it has expired. The intention is to scale in conservatively to protect your application's availability. However, if another alarm triggers a scale-out policy during the cooldown period after a scale-in, Application Auto Scaling scales out your scalable target immediately.

    Application Auto Scaling provides a default value of 300 for the following scalable targets:

    • ECS services

    • Spot Fleet requests

    • EMR clusters

    • AppStream 2.0 fleets

    • Aurora DB clusters

    • Amazon SageMaker endpoint variants

    • Custom resources

    For all other scalable targets, the default value is 0:

    • DynamoDB tables

    • DynamoDB global secondary indexes

    • Amazon Comprehend document classification endpoints

    • Lambda provisioned concurrency

    • Amazon Keyspaces tables

  • MetricAggregationType (string) --

    The aggregation type for the CloudWatch metrics. Valid values are Minimum , Maximum , and Average . If the aggregation type is null, the value is treated as Average .

type TargetTrackingScalingPolicyConfiguration

dict

param TargetTrackingScalingPolicyConfiguration

A target tracking scaling policy. Includes support for predefined or customized metrics.

This parameter is required if you are creating a policy and the policy type is TargetTrackingScaling .

  • TargetValue (float) -- [REQUIRED]

    The target value for the metric. The range is 8.515920e-109 to 1.174271e+108 (Base 10) or 2e-360 to 2e360 (Base 2).

  • PredefinedMetricSpecification (dict) --

    A predefined metric. You can specify either a predefined metric or a customized metric.

      The format is app/<load-balancer-name>/<load-balancer-id>/targetgroup/<target-group-name>/<target-group-id>, where:

      • app/<load-balancer-name>/<load-balancer-id> is the final portion of the load balancer ARN

      • targetgroup/<target-group-name>/<target-group-id> is the final portion of the target group ARN.

  • CustomizedMetricSpecification (dict) --

    A customized metric. You can specify either a predefined metric or a customized metric.

    • Dimensions (list) --

      The dimensions of the metric.

      Conditional: If you published your metric with dimensions, you must specify the same dimensions in your scaling policy.

      • (dict) --

        Describes the dimension names and values associated with a metric.

        • Name (string) -- [REQUIRED]

          The name of the dimension.

    • Statistic (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      The statistic of the metric.

    • Unit (string) --

      The unit of the metric.

  • ScaleOutCooldown (integer) --

    The amount of time, in seconds, after a scale-out activity completes before another scale-out activity can start.

    While the cooldown period is in effect, the capacity that has been added by the previous scale-out action that initiated the cooldown is calculated as part of the desired capacity for the next scale out. The intention is to continuously (but not excessively) scale out.

    • ECS services

    • Spot Fleet requests

    • EMR clusters

    • AppStream 2.0 fleets

Registers or updates a scalable target.

A scalable target is a resource that Application Auto Scaling can scale out and scale in. Scalable targets are uniquely identified by the combination of resource ID, scalable dimension, and namespace.

When you register a new scalable target, you must specify values for minimum and maximum capacity. Application Auto Scaling scaling policies will not scale capacity to values that are outside of this range.

After you register a scalable target, you do not need to register it again to use other Application Auto Scaling operations. To see which resources have been registered, use DescribeScalableTargets . You can also view the scaling policies for a service namespace by using DescribeScalableTargets . If you no longer need a scalable target, you can deregister it by using DeregisterScalableTarget .

To update a scalable target, specify the parameters that you want to change. Include the parameters that identify the scalable target: resource ID, scalable dimension, and namespace. Any parameters that you don't specify are not changed by this update request.

type MinCapacity

integer

param MinCapacity

The minimum value that you plan to scale in to. When a scaling policy is in effect, Application Auto Scaling can scale in (contract) as needed to the minimum capacity limit in response to changing demand.

This parameter is required if you are registering a scalable target. For Lambda provisioned concurrency, the minimum value allowed is 0. For all other resources, the minimum value allowed is 1.

type MaxCapacity

integer

param MaxCapacity

The maximum value that you plan to scale out to. When a scaling policy is in effect, Application Auto Scaling can scale out (expand) as needed to the maximum capacity limit in response to changing demand.

This parameter is required if you are registering a scalable target.

type RoleARN

string

param RoleARN

This parameter is required for services that do not support service-linked roles (such as Amazon EMR), and it must specify the ARN of an IAM role that allows Application Auto Scaling to modify the scalable target on your behalf.

If the service supports service-linked roles, Application Auto Scaling uses a service-linked role, which it creates if it does not yet exist. For more information, see Application Auto Scaling IAM Roles .

type SuspendedState

dict

param SuspendedState

An embedded object that contains attributes and attribute values that are used to suspend and resume automatic scaling. Setting the value of an attribute to true suspends the specified scaling activities. Setting it to false (default) resumes the specified scaling activities.

Suspension Outcomes

  • For DynamicScalingInSuspended , while a suspension is in effect, all scale-in activities that are triggered by a scaling policy are suspended.

  • For DynamicScalingOutSuspended , while a suspension is in effect, all scale-out activities that are triggered by a scaling policy are suspended.

  • For ScheduledScalingSuspended , while a suspension is in effect, all scaling activities that involve scheduled actions are suspended.

For more information, see Suspending and Resuming Scaling in the Application Auto Scaling User Guide .

  • DynamicScalingInSuspended (boolean) --

    Whether scale in by a target tracking scaling policy or a step scaling policy is suspended. Set the value to true if you don't want Application Auto Scaling to remove capacity when a scaling policy is triggered. The default is false .

  • DynamicScalingOutSuspended (boolean) --

    Whether scale out by a target tracking scaling policy or a step scaling policy is suspended. Set the value to true if you don't want Application Auto Scaling to add capacity when a scaling policy is triggered. The default is false .

  • ScheduledScalingSuspended (boolean) --

    Whether scheduled scaling is suspended. Set the value to true if you don't want Application Auto Scaling to add or remove capacity by initiating scheduled actions. The default is false .
