AWS security credentials

When you interact with AWS, you specify your AWS security credentials to verify who you are and
whether you have permission to access the resources that you are requesting. AWS uses the security
credentials to authenticate and authorize your requests.
For example, if you want to download a protected file from an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon
S3) bucket, your credentials must allow that access. If your credentials aren't authorized to download the
file, AWS denies your request. However, your AWS security credentials are not required to download a file
in an Amazon S3 bucket that is publicly shared.

AWS account root user credentials and IAM user

credentials
There are two different types of users in AWS. You are either the account owner (root user) or you are
an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user. The root user is created when the AWS account
is created and IAM users are created by the root user or an IAM administrator for the account. All AWS
users have security credentials.
Root user credentials
The credentials of the account owner allow full access to all resources in the account. You cannot use
IAM policies to explicitly deny the root user access to resources. You can only use an AWS Organizations
service control policy (SCP) to limit the permissions of the root user. Because of this, we recommend that
you create an IAM user with administrator permissions to use for everyday AWS tasks and lock away the
access keys for the root user.
There are specific tasks that are restricted to the AWS account root user. For example, only the root user
can close your account. If you need to perform a task that requires the root user, sign in to the AWS
Management Console using the email address and password of the root user. For more information, see
Tasks that require root user credentials (p. 3).
IAM credentials
With IAM, you can securely control access to AWS services and resources for users in your AWS account.
For example, if you require administrator-level permissions, you can create an IAM user, grant that user
full access, and then use those credentials to interact with AWS. If you need to modify or revoke your
permissions, you can delete or modify the policies that are associated with that IAM user.
If you have multiple users that require access to your AWS account, you can create unique credentials
for each user and define who has access to which resources. You don't need to share credentials. For
example, you can create IAM users with read-only access to resources in your AWS account and distribute
those credentials to users.

Tasks that require root user credentials
Tasks that require root user credentials

We recommend that you use an IAM user with appropriate permissions to perform tasks and access AWS
resources. However, you can perform the tasks listed below only when you sign in as the root user of an
account.
Tasks
• Change your account settings. This includes the account name, email address, root user password,
and root user access keys. Other account settings, such as contact information, payment currency
preference, and Regions, do not require root user credentials.
• Restore IAM user permissions. If the only IAM administrator accidentally revokes their own
permissions, you can sign in as the root user to edit policies and restore those permissions.
• Activate IAM access to the Billing and Cost Management console.
• View certain tax invoices. An IAM user with the aws-portal:ViewBilling permission can view and
download VAT invoices from AWS Europe, but not AWS Inc or Amazon Internet Services Pvt. Ltd
(AISPL).
• Close your AWS account.
• Change your AWS Support plan or Cancel your AWS Support plan. For more information, see IAM for
AWS Support.
• Register as a seller in the Reserved Instance Marketplace.
• Configure an Amazon S3 bucket to enable MFA (multi-factor authentication) Delete.
• Edit or delete an Amazon S3 bucket policy that includes an invalid VPC ID or VPC endpoint ID.
• Sign up for GovCloud.
Troubleshooting
If you cannot complete any of these tasks using your root user credentials, your account might be a
member of an organization in AWS Organizations. If your organizational administrator used a service
control policy (SCP) to limit the permissions of your account, your root user permissions might be
affected. For more information, see Service control policies in the AWS Organizations User Guide.
Understanding and getting your AWS credentials

AWS requires different types of security credentials depending on how you access AWS. For example,
you need a user name and password to sign in to the AWS Management Console and you need access
keys to make programmatic calls to AWS or to use the AWS Command Line Interface or AWS Tools for
PowerShell.
Considerations
• Be sure to save the following in a secure location: the email address associated with your AWS account,
the AWS account ID, your password, and your secret access keys. If you forget or lose these credentials,
you can't recover them. For security reasons, AWS doesn't provide the means for you or anyone else to
retrieve your credentials.
• We strongly recommend that you create an IAM user with administrator permissions to use for
everyday AWS tasks and lock away the password and access keys for the root user. Use the root user
only for the tasks that are restricted to the root user.
• Security credentials are account-specific. If you have access to multiple AWS accounts, you have
separate credentials for each account.
• Do not provide your AWS credentials to a third party.

Console access
Credentials
• Console access (p. 4)
• Programmatic access (p. 5)
• Temporary access keys (p. 5)
Console access
There are two different types of users in AWS. You are either the account owner (root user) or you are
an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user. How you sign in to the AWS Management Console
depends on whether you are the root user or an IAM user.
Contents
• Root user email address and password (p. 4)
• IAM user name and password (p. 4)
• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) (p. 4)
Root user email address and password

When you first create an AWS account, you specify an email address for the account and a password
for the root user. To sign in to your AWS account as the root user, you provide this email address and
password. The root user can sign in to the AWS Management Console and change the account name,
email address, and password using the Security Credentials page. If you forget the password for the root
user, open the console sign-in page and choose Forgot password? to reset your password.
IAM user name and password

IAM users are created by the root user or an IAM administrator within the AWS account. The user who
created your IAM user should provide you with either the account alias or 12-digit AWS account ID, the
IAM user name, and the password for the IAM user. An IAM user can sign in using either the console sign-
in page or the following sign-in URL, replacing account_id_or_alias with either the account alias or
AWS account ID provided to you:
https://account_id_or_alias.signin.aws.amazon.com/console/
If you forget the password for your IAM user, contact your IAM administrator or the account owner. If
your IAM administrator gave you permissions to manage your own AWS credentials, then you can change
your password periodically, which is a security best practice, using the Security Credentials page.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA)

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) provides an extra level of security that you can apply to your AWS
account. For additional security, we recommend that you require MFA on the AWS account root user
credentials and highly privileged IAM users. For more information, see Using Multi-Factor Authentication
(MFA) in AWS in the IAM User Guide.
With MFA enabled, when you sign in to your AWS account, you are prompted for your user name and
password, plus an authentication code from an MFA device. Adding MFA provides increased security for
your AWS account settings and resources.
By default, MFA (multi-factor authentication) is not enabled. You can enable and manage MFA devices
for the AWS account root user by going to the Security Credentials page or the IAM dashboard in the
AWS Management Console. For more information about enabling MFA for IAM users, see Enabling MFA
Devices in the IAM User Guide.
Version 1.0

Programmatic access
Programmatic access
You must provide your AWS access keys to make programmatic calls to AWS or to use the AWS
Command Line Interface or AWS Tools for PowerShell.
When you create your access keys, you create the access key ID (for example, AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE)
and secret access key (for example, wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY) as a set. The
secret access key is available for download only when you create it. If you don't download your secret
access key or if you lose it, you must create a new one.
You can assign up to two access keys per user (root user or IAM user). Having two access keys is useful
when you want to rotate them. When you disable an access key, you can't use it, but it counts toward
your limit of two access keys. After you delete an access key, it's gone forever and can't be restored, but it
can be replaced with a new access key.
To create an access key when signed in as the root user
1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console as the root user. For more information, see Sign in as the
root user in the IAM User Guide.
2. In the navigation bar on the upper right, choose your account name or number and then choose My
Security Credentials.
3. Expand the Access keys (access key ID and secret access key) section.
4. Choose Create New Access Key. If you already have two access keys, this button is disabled.
5. When prompted, choose Show Access Key or Download Key File. This is your only opportunity to
save your secret access key.
6. After you've saved your secret access key in a secure location, chose Close.
To create an access key when signed in as an IAM user
1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console as an IAM user. For more information, see Sign in as an IAM
user in the IAM User Guide.
2. In the navigation bar on the upper right, choose your user name and then choose My Security
Credentials.
Tip
If you do not see the My Security Credentials page, you might be signed in as a federated
user, not an IAM user. You can create and use temporary access keys (p. 5) instead.
3. Choose AWS IAM credentials, Create access key. If you already have two access keys, the console
displays a "Limited exceeded" error.
4. When prompted, choose Download .csv file or Show secret access key. This is your only opportunity
to save your secret access key.
5. After you've saved your secret access key in a secure location, chose Close.
Temporary access keys

You can also create and use temporary access keys, known as temporary security credentials. In addition
to the access key ID and secret access key, temporary security credentials include a security token that
you must send to AWS when you use temporary security credentials. The advantage of temporary
security credentials is that they are short term. After they expire, they're no longer valid. You can use
temporary access keys in less secure environments or distribute them to grant users temporary access
to resources in your AWS account. For example, you can grant entities from other AWS accounts access
to resources in your AWS account (cross-account access). You can also grant users who don't have AWS

AWS account identifiers
security credentials access to resources in your AWS account (federation). For more information, see aws
sts assume-role.
Your AWS account identifiers

AWS assigns the following unique identifiers to each AWS account:
AWS account ID
A 12-digit number, such as 123456789012, that uniquely identifies an AWS account. Many AWS
resources include the account ID in their Amazon Resource Names (ARNs). The account ID portion
distinguishes resources in one account from the resources in another account. If you are an IAM user,
you can sign in to the AWS Management Console using either the account ID or account alias.
Canonical user ID
An alpha-numeric identifier, such as

79a59df900b949e55d96a1e698fbacedfd6e09d98eacf8f8d5218e7cd47ef2be, that is an
obfuscated form of the AWS account ID. You can use this ID to identify an AWS account when
granting cross-account access to buckets and objects using Amazon S3. You can retrieve the
canonical user ID for your AWS account as either the root user or an IAM user.
You must be authenticated with AWS to view these identifiers.

Warning
Do not provide your AWS credentials (p. 3) to a third party that needs your AWS account
identifiers to share AWS resources with you. Doing so would give them the same access to the
AWS account that you have.
Finding your AWS account ID

You can find the AWS account ID in the AWS Management Console. The location of the account ID in
the console depends on whether you are logged in as the root user or an IAM user. The account ID is the
same whether you are logged in as the root user or an IAM user.
Prerequisite
You must be signed in to the AWS Management Console. For more information, see Signing in to the
AWS Management Console in the IAM User Guide.
To find your AWS account ID when signed in as the root user
2. Expand the Account identifiers section. The account number appears next to the label AWS Account
ID.
To find your AWS account ID when signed in as an IAM user
1. In the navigation bar on the upper right, choose your user name and then choose My Security
Credentials.
Tip
If you do not see the My Security Credentials page, you might be signed in as a federated
user, not an IAM user.
2. At the top of the page, under Account details, the account number appears next to the label AWS
account ID.

Finding the canonical user ID for your AWS account
To find your AWS account ID using the AWS CLI
Use the get-caller-identity command as follows:
aws sts get-caller-identity --query Account --output text
Finding the canonical user ID for your AWS account

You can find the canonical user ID for your AWS account using the AWS Management Console or the AWS
CLI. The canonical user ID for an AWS account is specific to that account. You can retrieve the canonical
user ID for your AWS account as the root user, a federated user, or an IAM user.
Prerequisites
You must have permission to list and view an Amazon S3 bucket if you are a federated user or are
accessing the information programmatically, such as through the AWS CLI.
To find the canonical user ID for your account when signed in to the console as the root user
or an IAM user
1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console as the root user or an IAM user.
For more information, see Signing in to the AWS Management Console in the IAM User Guide.
3. If you are the root user, expand Account identifiers and find Canonical User ID.
If you are an IAM user, under Account details, find Account canonical user ID.
To find the canonical user ID for your account when signed in to the console as a federated
user
1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console as a federated user.
For more information, see Signing in to the AWS Management Console in the IAM User Guide.
2. In the Amazon S3 console, to view details about a bucket, choose a bucket name.
3. Choose Permissions, and then choose Access Control List.
At the top of the page, under Access for bucket owner, the canonical user ID for the AWS account
appears.
To find the canonical user ID using the AWS CLI
Use the list-buckets command as follows:
aws s3api list-buckets --query Owner.ID --output text
Best practices for managing AWS access keys

When you use AWS programmatically, you provide your AWS access keys so that AWS can verify
your identity in programmatic calls. Your access keys consist of an access key ID (for example,
Version 1.0
7
Remove (or don't generate) an account access key
AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE) and a secret access key (for example, wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/

bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY).
Anyone who has your access keys has the same level of access to your AWS resources that you do.
Consequently, AWS goes to significant lengths to protect your access keys, and, in keeping with our
shared-responsibility model, you should as well.
The steps that follow can help you protect your access keys. For background information, see AWS
security credentials (p. 2).
Note
Your organization may have different security requirements and policies than those described in
this topic. The suggestions provided here are intended as general guidelines.
Remove (or don't generate) an account access key

You must use your access keys to sign requests that you make using the AWS Command Line Tools,
the AWS SDKs, or direct API calls. Anyone who has the access keys for your AWS account root user has
unrestricted access to all the resources in your account, including billing information. You cannot restrict
the permissions for your AWS account root user.
One of the best ways to protect your account is to not have access keys for your AWS account root
user. Unless you must have root user access keys (which is rare), it is best not to generate them. Instead,
the recommended best practice is to create one or more AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)
users. Grant those IAM users the necessary permissions and use them for everyday interaction with AWS.
If you already have access keys for your account, we recommend the following: Find places in your
applications where you are currently using access keys (if any), replace the root user access keys with IAM
user access keys. Then disable and remove the root user access keys. For more information about how to
substitute one access key for another, see the post How to Rotate Access Keys for IAM Users on the AWS
Security Blog.
By default, AWS does not generate access keys for new accounts.
For information about how to create an IAM user with administrative permissions, see Creating Your First
IAM Admin User and Group in the IAM User Guide.
Use temporary security credentials (IAM roles)

instead of long-term access keys
In many scenarios, you don't need long-term access keys that never expire (as you have with an IAM
user). Instead, you can create IAM roles and generate temporary security credentials. Temporary security
credentials consist of an access key ID and a secret access key, but they also include a security token that
indicates when the credentials expire.
Long-term access keys, such as those associated with IAM users and AWS account root users, remain valid
until you manually revoke them. However, temporary security credentials obtained through IAM roles
and other features of the AWS Security Token Service expire after a short period of time. Use temporary
security credentials to help reduce your risk in case credentials are accidentally exposed.
Use an IAM role and temporary security credentials in these scenarios:
• You have an application or AWS CLI scripts running on an Amazon EC2 instance. Do not use
access keys directly in your application. Don't pass access keys to the application, embed them in the
application, or let the application read access keys from any source. Instead, define an IAM role that
has appropriate permissions for your application and launch the Amazon EC2 instance with roles for
EC2. Doing this associates an IAM role with the Amazon EC2 instance. This practice also enables the
Version 1.0

Manage IAM user access keys properly
application to get temporary security credentials that it can in turn use to make programatic calls to
AWS. The AWS SDKs and the AWS CLI can get temporary credentials from the role automatically.
• You need to grant cross-account access. Use an IAM role to establish trust between accounts,
and then grant users in one account limited permissions to access the trusted account. For more
information, see Tutorial: Delegate Access Across AWS Accounts Using IAM Roles in the IAM User Guide.
• You have a mobile app. Do not embed access keys with the app, even in encrypted storage. Instead,
use Amazon Cognito to manage user identities in your app. This service lets you authenticate users
using Login with Amazon, Facebook, Google, or any OpenID Connect (OIDC)–compatible identity
provider. You can then use the Amazon Cognito credentials provider to manage credentials that your
app uses to make requests to AWS. For more information, see Using the Amazon Cognito Credentials
Provider on the AWS Mobile Blog.
• You want to federate into AWS and your organization supports SAML 2.0. If you work for an
organization that has an identity provider that supports SAML 2.0, configure the provider to use SAML.
You can use SAML to exchange authentication information with AWS and get back a set of temporary
security credentials. For more information, see About SAML 2.0-based Federation in the IAM User
Guide.
• You want to federate into AWS and your organization has an on-premises identity store. If users
can authenticate inside your organization, you can write an application that can issue them temporary
security credentials for access to AWS resources. For more information, see Creating a URL that
Enables Federated Users to Access the AWS Management Console (Custom Federation Broker) in the
IAM User Guide.
Manage IAM user access keys properly

If you must create access keys for programmatic access to AWS, create them for IAM users, granting the
users only the permissions they require. For more information, see Managing Access Keys for IAM Users
in the IAM User Guide.
Note
Are you using an Amazon EC2 instance with an application that requires programmatic access to
AWS resources? If so, use IAM roles for EC2.
Observe these precautions when using access keys:
• Don't embed access keys directly into code. The AWS SDKs and the AWS Command Line Tools enable
you to put access keys in known locations so that you do not have to keep them in code.
Put access keys in one of the following locations:

• The AWS credentials file. The AWS SDKs and AWS CLI automatically use the credentials that you
store in the AWS credentials file.
For information about using the AWS credentials file, see the documentation for your SDK. Examples
include Set up AWS Credentials and Region for Development in the AWS SDK for Java Developer
Guide and Configuration and Credential Files in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide.
To store credentials for the AWS SDK for .NET and the AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell, we
recommend that you use the SDK Store. For more information, see Using the SDK Store in the AWS
SDK for .NET Developer Guide.
• Environment variables. On a multitenant system, choose user environment variables, not system
environment variables.
For more information about using environment variables to store credentials, see Environment
Variables in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide.
• Use different access keys for different applications. Do this so that you can isolate the permissions
and revoke the access keys for individual applications if they are exposed. Having separate access keys
Version 1.0
9
Access the mobile app using AWS access keys
for different applications also generates distinct entries in AWS CloudTrail log files. This configuration
makes it easier for you to determine which application performed specific actions.
• Rotate access keys periodically. Change access keys on a regular basis. For details, see Rotating Access
Keys (AWS CLI, Tools for Windows PowerShell, and AWS API) in the IAM User Guide and How to Rotate
Access Keys for IAM Users on the AWS Security Blog.
• Remove unused access keys. If a user leaves your organization, remove the corresponding IAM user
so that the user can no longer access your resources. To find out when an access key was last used, use
the GetAccessKeyLastUsed API (AWS CLI command: aws iam get-access-key-last-used).
• Configure multi-factor authentication for your most sensitive operations. For more information, see
Using Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) in AWS in the IAM User Guide.
Access the mobile app using AWS access keys

You can access a limited set of AWS services and features using the AWS mobile app. The mobile app
helps you support incident response while on the go. For more information and to download the app,
see AWS Console Mobile Application.
You can sign in to the mobile app using your console password or your access keys. As a best practice, do
not use root user access keys. Instead, we strongly recommend that in addition to using a password or
biometric lock on your mobile device, you create an IAM user to manage AWS resources. If you lose your
mobile device, you can remove the IAM user's access. For more information about generating access keys
for an IAM user, see Managing Access Keys for IAM Users in the IAM User Guide.
To sign in using access keys (mobile app)
1. Open the app on your mobile device.

2. If this is the first time that you're adding an identity to the device, choose Add an identity and then
choose Access keys.
If you have already signed in using another identity, choose the menu icon and choose Switch
identity. Then choose Sign in as a different identity and then Access keys.
3. On the Access keys page, enter your information:
• Access key ID – Enter your access key ID.

• Secret access key – Enter your secret access key.
• Identity name – Enter the name of the identity that will appear in the mobile app. This does not
need to match your IAM user name.
• Identity PIN – Create a personal identification number (PIN) that you will use for future sign-ins.
Note
If you enable biometrics for the AWS mobile app, you will be prompted to use your
fingerprint or facial recognition for verification instead of the PIN. If the biometrics fail,
you might be prompted for the PIN instead.
4. Choose Verify and add keys.
You can now access a select set of your resources using the mobile app.

AWS security audit guidelines

You should periodically audit your security configuration to make sure it meets your current business
needs. An audit gives you an opportunity to remove unneeded IAM users, roles, groups, and policies, and
to make sure that your users and software have only the permissions that are required.
Following are guidelines for systematically reviewing and monitoring your AWS resources for security
best practices.

When you should perform a security audit

You should audit your security configuration in the following situations:
• On a periodic basis. You should perform the steps described in this document at regular intervals as a
best practice for security.
• If there are changes in your organization, such as people leaving.
• If you have stopped using one or more individual AWS services. This is important for removing
permissions that users in your account no longer need.
• If you've added or removed software in your accounts, such as applications on Amazon EC2 instances,
AWS OpsWorks stacks, AWS CloudFormation templates, etc.
• If you ever suspect that an unauthorized person might have accessed your account.

Guidelines for auditing
Guidelines for auditing

As you review your account's security configuration, follow these guidelines:
• Be thorough. Look at all aspects of your security configuration, including those you might not use
regularly.
• Don't assume. If you are unfamiliar with some aspect of your security configuration (for example, the
reasoning behind a particular policy or the existence of a role), investigate the business need until you
are satisfied.
• Keep things simple. To make auditing (and management) easier, use IAM groups, consistent naming
schemes, and straightforward policies.
Review your AWS account credentials

Take these steps when you audit your AWS account credentials:
1. If you're not using the root access keys for your account, you can remove them. We strongly
recommend that you do not use root access keys for everyday work with AWS, and that instead you
create IAM users.
2. If you do need to keep the access keys for your account, rotate them regularly.
Review your IAM users

Take these steps when you audit your existing IAM users:
1. List your users and then delete users that are inactive.
2. Remove users from groups that they don't need to be a part of.
3. Review the policies attached to the groups the user is in. See Tips for reviewing IAM policies (p. 14).
4. Delete security credentials that the user doesn't need or that might have been exposed. For example,
an IAM user that is used for an application does not need a password (which is necessary only to sign
in to AWS websites). Similarly, if a user does not use access keys, there's no reason for the user to have
one. For more information, see Managing Passwords for IAM Users and Managing Access Keys for IAM
Users in the IAM User Guide.
You can generate and download a credential report that lists all IAM users in your account and the
status of their various credentials, including passwords, access keys, and MFA devices. For passwords
and access keys, the credential report shows how recently the password or access key has been
used. Credentials that have not been used recently might be good candidates for removal. For more
information, see Getting Credential Reports for your AWS Account in the IAM User Guide.
5. Rotate (change) user security credentials periodically, or immediately if you ever share them with an
unauthorized person. For more information, see Managing Passwords for IAM Users and Managing
Access Keys for IAM Users in the IAM User Guide.
Review your IAM groups

Take these steps when you audit your IAM groups:
1. List your groups and then delete groups that are unused.
2. Review users in each group and remove users that don't belong.
3. Review the policies attached to the group. See Tips for reviewing IAM policies (p. 14).
Version 1.0
12
Review your IAM roles
Review your IAM roles

Take these steps when you audit your IAM roles:
1. List your roles and then delete roles that are unused.
2. Review the role's trust policy. Make sure that you know who the principal is and that you understand
why that account or user needs to be able to assume the role.
3. Review the access policy for the role to be sure that it grants suitable permissions to whoever assumes
the role—see Tips for reviewing IAM policies (p. 14).
Review your IAM providers for SAML and OpenID

Connect (OIDC)
If you have created an IAM entity for establishing trust with a SAML or OIDC identity provider, take these
steps:
1. Delete unused providers.

2. Download and review the AWS metadata documents for each SAML provider and make sure the
documents reflect your current business needs. Alternatively, get the latest metadata documents from
the SAML IdPs that you want to establish trust with and update the provider in IAM.
Review Your mobile apps

If you have created a mobile app that makes requests to AWS, take these steps:
1. Make sure that the mobile app does not contain embedded access keys, even if they are in encrypted
storage.
2. Get temporary credentials for the app by using APIs that are designed for that purpose. We
recommend that you use Amazon Cognito to manage user identity in your app. This service lets you
authenticate users using Login with Amazon, Facebook, Google, or any OpenID Connect (OIDC)–
compatible identity provider. You can then use the Amazon Cognito credentials provider to manage
credentials that your app uses to make requests to AWS.
If your mobile app doesn't support authentication using Login with Amazon, Facebook, Google, or any
other OIDC-compatible identity provider, you can create a proxy server that can dispense temporary
credentials to your app.
Review your Amazon EC2 security configuration

Take the following steps for each AWS Region:
1. Delete Amazon EC2 key pairs that are unused or that might be known to people outside your
organization.
2. Review your Amazon EC2 security groups:
• Remove security groups that no longer meet your needs.
• Remove rules from security groups that no longer meet your needs. Make sure you know why the
ports, protocols, and IP address ranges they permit have been allowed.
3. Terminate instances that aren't serving a business need or that might have been started by someone
outside your organization for unapproved purposes. Remember that if an instance is started with a

role, applications that run on that instance can access AWS resources using the permissions that are
granted by that role.
4. Cancel Spot Instance requests that aren't serving a business need or that might have been made by
someone outside your organization.
5. Review your Auto Scaling groups and configurations. Shut down any that no longer meet your needs
or that might have been configured by someone outside your organization.
Review AWS policies in other services

Review the permissions for services that use resource-based policies or that support other security
mechanisms. In each case, make sure that only users and roles with a current business need have access
to the service's resources, and that the permissions granted on the resources are the fewest necessary to
meet your business needs.
• Review your Amazon S3 bucket policies and ACLs.

• Review your Amazon SQS queue policies.
• Review your Amazon SNS topic policies.
• Review your AWS OpsWorks permissions.
• Review your AWS KMS key policies.
Monitor activity in your AWS account

Follow these guidelines for monitoring AWS activity:
• Turn on AWS CloudTrail in each account and use it in each supported Region.
• Periodically examine CloudTrail log files. (CloudTrail has a number of partners who provide tools for
reading and analyzing log files.)
• Enable Amazon S3 bucket logging to monitor requests made to each bucket.
• If you believe there has been unauthorized use of your account, pay particular attention to temporary
credentials that have been issued. If temporary credentials have been issued that you don't recognize,
disable their permissions.
• Enable billing alerts in each account and set a cost threshold that lets you know if your charges exceed
your normal usage.
Tips for reviewing IAM policies

Policies are powerful and subtle, so it's important to study and understand the permissions that are
granted by each policy. Use the following guidelines when reviewing policies:
• As a best practice, attach policies to groups instead of to individual users. If an individual user has a
policy, make sure you understand why that user needs the policy.
• Make sure that IAM users, groups, and roles have only the permissions that they need.
• Use the IAM Policy Simulator to test policies that are attached to users or groups.
• Remember that a user's permissions are the result of all applicable policies—user policies, group
policies, and resource-based policies (on Amazon S3 buckets, Amazon SQS queues, Amazon SNS
topics, and AWS KMS keys). It's important to examine all the policies that apply to a user and to
understand the complete set of permissions granted to an individual user.
• Be aware that allowing a user to create an IAM user, group, role, or policy and attach a policy to the
principal entity is effectively granting that user all permissions to all resources in your account. That is,
users who are allowed to create policies and attach them to a user, group, or role can grant themselves

any permissions. In general, do not grant IAM permissions to users or roles whom you do not trust
with full access to the resources in your account. The following list contains IAM permissions that you
should review closely:
• iam:PutGroupPolicy
• iam:PutRolePolicy
• iam:PutUserPolicy
• iam:CreatePolicy
• iam:CreatePolicyVersion
• iam:AttachGroupPolicy
• iam:AttachRolePolicy
• iam:AttachUserPolicy
• Make sure policies don't grant permissions for services that you don't use. For example, if you use
AWS managed policies, make sure the AWS managed policies that are in use in your account are for
services that you actually use. To find out which AWS managed policies are in use in your account, use
the IAM GetAccountAuthorizationDetails API (AWS CLI command: aws iam get-account-
authorization-details).
• If the policy grants a user permission to launch an Amazon EC2 instance, it might also allow the
iam:PassRole action, but if so it should explicitly list the roles that the user is allowed to pass to the
Amazon EC2 instance.
• Closely examine any values for the Action or Resource element that include *. It's a best practice
to grant Allow access to only the individual actions and resources that users need. However, the
following are reasons that it might be suitable to use * in a policy:
• The policy is designed to grant administrative-level privileges.
• The wildcard character is used for a set of similar actions (for example, Describe*) as a
convenience, and you are comfortable with the complete list of actions that are referenced in this
way.
• The wildcard character is used to indicate a class of resources or a resource path (e.g.,
arn:aws:iam::account-id:users/division_abc/*), and you are comfortable granting access
to all of the resources in that class or path.
• A service action does not support resource-level permissions, and the only choice for a resource is *.
• Examine policy names to make sure they reflect the policy's function. For example, although a
policy might have a name that includes "read only," the policy might actually grant write or change
permissions.

Service endpoints and quotas

The following pages describe the service endpoints and service quotas for AWS services. To connect
programmatically to an AWS service, you use an endpoint. For more information, see AWS service
endpoints (p. 536). Service quotas, also referred to as limits, are the maximum number of service
resources or operations for your AWS account. For more information, see AWS service quotas (p. 540).
Click one of the following links to go to the page for that service. To view the service quotas for all AWS
services in the documentation without switching pages, view the information in the Service Endpoints
and Quotas page in the PDF instead.

You can't use IP allow listing in your Amazon S3 bucket policy to deny access to any other IP
addresses besides Amazon AppFlow IP addresses. This is because Amazon AppFlow uses a VPC
endpoint when placing data in your Amazon S3 buckets.

Athena APIs have the following default quotas for the number of calls to the API per account (not per
query):
API Name Default Number of Burst Capacity

Calls per Second
BatchGetNamedQuery, ListNamedQueries, 5 up to 10
ListQueryExecutions
CreateNamedQuery, DeleteNamedQuery, 5 up to 20
GetNamedQuery
Version 1.0
43
AWS Audit Manager
API Name Default Number of Burst Capacity

Calls per Second
BatchGetQueryExecution 20 up to 40
StartQueryExecution, StopQueryExecution 20 up to 80
GetQueryExecution, GetQueryResults 100 up to 200
For example, for StartQueryExecution, you can make up to 20 calls per second. In addition, if this API
is not called for 4 seconds, your account accumulates a burst capacity of up to 80 calls. In this case, your
application can make up to 80 calls to this API in burst mode.
If you use any of these APIs and exceed the default quota for the number of calls per second, or the
burst capacity in your account, the Athena API issues an error similar to the following: ""ClientError: An
error occurred (ThrottlingException) when calling the <API_name> operation: Rate exceeded." Reduce
the number of calls per second, or the burst capacity for the API for this account. To request a quota
increase, contact AWS Support. Open the AWS Support Center page, sign in if necessary, and choose
Create case. Choose Service limit increase. Complete and submit the form.
Note
This quota cannot be changed in the Athena Service Quotas console.
For information about quotas for databases, tables, and partitions, see Service Quotas (p. 228). If you
have not migrated to AWS Glue Data Catalog, the number of partitions per table is 20,000.

This quota reflects the

number of unexpired
certificates that can
be included in the
Certificate Revocation
List (CRL), based on the
maximum CRL size that
can be processed by
clients consuming CRLs.
The following quotas apply to the ACM Private CA API for each Region and account. ACM Private
CA throttles API requests at different rates depending on the API operation. Throttling means that
ACM Private CA rejects an otherwise valid request because the request exceeds the operation's
quota for the number of requests per second. When a request is throttled, ACM Private CA returns a
ThrottlingException error. The following table lists each API operation and the rate at which ACM
Private CA throttles requests for that operation. ACM Private CA does not guarantee a minimum request
rate for APIs.

Service Endpoints
The ecr and api.ecr endpoints are used for calls to the Amazon ECR API. API actions such as
DescribeImages and CreateRepository go to this endpoint. While the two endpoints function
the same, the api.ecr endpoint is recommended and the default when using the AWS CLI or AWS
SDKs. When connecting to Amazon ECR through an AWS PrivateLink VPC endpoint, you must use the
api.ecr endpoint to make API calls. For more information, see Amazon ECR Interface VPC Endpoints
(AWS PrivateLink) in the Amazon Elastic Container Registry User Guide.

Service Quotas
AWS allows you to request an increase to default quotas for IAM entities. You can use Service Quotas to
manage your IAM quotas. For adjustable IAM quotas, you can request a quota increase. Smaller increases
are automatically approved in Service Quotas and are completed within a few minutes. Larger requests
above the maximum autoapproved increase are submitted to AWS Support. Some adjustable quotas
can't be increased above the maximum autoapproved increase amount. You can track your request case
in the AWS Support console.
To request a quota increase, sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Service Quotas
console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/servicequotas/. In the navigation pane, choose AWS
services. On the navigation bar, choose the US East (N. Virginia) Region. Then search for IAM. Choose
AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), choose a quota, and follow the directions to request a
quota increase. For more information, see Requesting a Quota Increase in the Service Quotas User Guide.
The following quotas are adjustable.

Billing Group Restrictions

• A thing can belong to exactly one billing group.
• Unlike thing groups, billing groups cannot be organized into hierarchies.
• For its usage to be registered for tagging or billing purposes, a device must:
• Be registered as a thing in AWS IoT Core.
• Communicate with AWS IoT Core using MQTT only.
• Authenticate with AWS IoT Core using only its thing name as the client ID.
• Use an X.509 certificate or Amazon Cognito Identity to authenticate.
For more information, see Managing Devices with AWS IoT, Authentication, and Device Provisioning.
You can use the AttachThingPrincipal API operation to attach a certificate or other credential to a
thing.
• The maximum number of billing groups per AWS account is 20,000.

Inbound publish Inbound publish 20,000 Yes

requests per second per requests count for
account all the messages
that AWS IoT Core
processes before
routing the messages
to the subscribed
clients or the rules
engine. For example,
a single message
published on $aws/
things/device/
shadow/update
topic can result in
publishing 3 additional
messages to $aws/
things/device/
shadow/update/
accepted, $aws/
things/device/
shadow/update/
documents, and $aws/
things/device/
shadow/delta topics.
In this case, AWS IoT
Core counts those as
4 inbound publish
requests. However, a
single message to an
unreserved topic like
a/b is counted as a
single inbound publish
request.
Maximum concurrent The maximum 500,000 Yes

account every message that
resulted in matching
a client's subscription
or matching a rules
engine subscription.
For example, 2 clients
are subscribed to topic

filter a/#. An inbound
publish request on topic
a/b results in a total
of 3 outbound publish
requests.
Version 1.0

Service Quotas
Persistent session The duration for 1 hour Yes

expiry period which the message
broker stores an MQTT
persistent session. The
expiry period begins
when the message
broker detects the
session has become
disconnected. After
the expiry period has
elapsed, the message
broker terminates the
session and discards
any associated queued
messages. You can
adjust this to a value
from 1 hour to 7 days
by using the standard
limit increase process.
Persistent session AWS IoT Core restricts 500 Yes

message requests per an account to a
second per account maximum number of
persisted message per
second per account.
This limit applies when
AWS IoT Core stores
the messages send
to offline persistent
sessions.
Publish requests per AWS IoT Core restricts 100 No

second per connection each client connection
to a maximum number
of inbound and
outbound publish
requests per second.
This limit includes
messages sent to offline
persistent session.
Publish requests that
exceed that quota are
discarded.
Subscriptions per AWS IoT Core restricts 500,000 Yes

account an account to a
maximum number of

Subscriptions per AWS IoT Core supports 50 No

connection 50 subscriptions per
connection. AWS IoT
Core might reject
subscription requests
on the same connection
in excess of this amount
and the connection is
closed. Clients should
validate the SUBACK
message to ensure
that their subscription
requests have been
successfully processed.
Subscriptions per AWS IoT Core restricts 500 Yes

second per account an account to a
maximum number
of subscriptions
per second. For
example, if there are
2 MQTT SUBSCRIBE
requests sent within
a second, each with
3 subscriptions (topic
filters), AWS IoT Core
counts those as 6
subscriptions.
Throughput per second Data received or sent 512 KiB No

per connection over a client connection
is processed at a
maximum throughput
rate. Data that
exceeds the maximum
throughput is delayed
in processing.
Protocols
Resource Description
Client ID size 128 bytes of UTF-8 encoded characters.
Connection inactivity (keep-alive interval) For MQTT (or MQTT over WebSocket) connections,
a client can request a keep-alive interval between
30—1200 seconds as part of the MQTT CONNECT
message. AWS IoT Core starts the keep-alive
timer for a client when sending CONNACK in
response to the CONNECT message. This timer
is reset whenever AWS IoT receives a PUBLISH,
SUBSCRIBE, PING, or PUBACK message from the
client. AWS IoT Core disconnects a client whose
Version 1.0
268
Service Quotas
Resource Description
keep-alive timer has reached 1.5x the specified
keep-alive interval (i.e., by a factor of 1.5).
The default keep-alive interval is 1200 seconds.

If a client requests a keep-alive interval of zero,
the default keep-alive interval is used. If a client
requests a keep-alive interval greater than 1200
seconds, the default keep-alive interval is used.
If a client requests a keep-alive interval shorter
than 30 seconds but greater than zero, the server
treats the client as though it requested a keep-
alive interval of 30 seconds.
Maximum number of slashes in topic and topic A topic in a publish or subscribe request can have
filter no more than 7 forward slashes (/). This excludes
the first 3 slashes in the mandatory segments for
Basic Ingest topics ($AWS/rules/rule-name/).
Maximum subscriptions per subscribe request A single SUBSCRIBE request has a quota of 8
subscriptions.
Message size The payload for every publish request can be no

larger than 128 KB. AWS IoT Core rejects publish
and connect requests larger than this size.
Restricted client ID prefix $ is reserved for AWS IoT Core-generated client

IDs.
Restricted topic prefix Topics that start with $ are reserved by AWS IoT
Core. They are not supported for publishing and
subscribing except for using the specific topic
names defined by AWS IoT Core services (for
example, the Device Shadow service).
Topic size The topic passed to AWS IoT Core when sending
a publish request can be no larger than 256 bytes
of UTF-8 encoded characters. This excludes the
first 3 mandatory segments for Basic Ingest topics
($AWS/rules/rule-name/).
WebSocket connection duration The WebSocket connection quota is 24 hours. If

the quota is exceeded, the WebSocket connection
is closed when the client or server attempts to
send a message.

This quota applies per account and per API. For example, in the US East (N. Virginia) Region, each account
has a default quota of 30 TPS, which is the aggregate of all API operation requests. Each API (such as
CreateGroupVersion or ListFunctionDefinitions) has a quota of 30 TPS. This includes control
plane and data plane operations. Requests that exceed the account or API quotas are throttled. To
request account and API quota increases, including quotas for specific APIs, contact your AWS Enterprise
Support representative.

The Greengrass Core software provides a service to detect the IP addresses of your Greengrass core
devices. It sends this information to the AWS IoT Greengrass cloud service and allows AWS IoT devices to
download the IP address of the Greengrass core they need to connect to.

AWS IoT Greengrass V2
Do not use this feature if any of the following is true:
• The IP address of a Greengrass core device changes frequently.

• The Greengrass core device is not always available to AWS IoT devices in its group.
• The Greengrass core has multiple IP addresses and an AWS IoT device is unable to reliably determine
which address to use.
• Your organization's security policies don't allow you to send devices' IP addresses to the AWS Cloud.

AWS Security Token Service endpoints and quotas

Service Endpoints
By default, the AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) is available as a global service, and all STS
requests go to a single endpoint at https://sts.amazonaws.com. AWS recommends using Regional
STS endpoints to reduce latency, build in redundancy, and increase session token validity. Most Regional
endpoints are active by default, but you must manually enable endpoints for some Regions, such as Asia
Pacific (Hong Kong). You can deactivate STS endpoints for any Regions that are enabled by default if you
do not intend to use those Regions.
For more information, see Activating and Deactivating AWS STS in an AWS Region in the IAM User Guide.

**Amazon S3 dual-stack endpoints support requests to S3 buckets over IPv6 and IPv4. For more
information, see Using Dual-Stack Endpoints.
***You must enable this Region before you can use it.
****You can use the Asia Pacific (Osaka-Local) Region only in conjunction with the Asia Pacific (Tokyo)
Region. To request access to the Asia Pacific (Osaka-Local) Region, contact your sales representative.
When using the preceding endpoints the following additional considerations apply:
• The s3-control endpoints are used with Amazon S3 account-level operations

• The s3-accesspoint endpoints are used only to make requests through Amazon S3 Access Points. For
more information, see Working with Amazon S3 Access Points.
Version 1.0

Service Endpoints
• Amazon S3 renamed the US Standard Region to the US East (N. Virginia) Region to be consistent with
AWS Regional naming conventions. There is no change to the endpoint, and you do not need to make
any changes to your application.
• If you use a Region other than the US East (N. Virginia) endpoint to create a bucket, you must set the
LocationConstraint bucket parameter to the same Region. Both the AWS SDK for Java and AWS SDK
for .NET use an enumeration for setting location constraints (Region for Java, S3Region for .NET). For
more information, see PUT Bucket in the Amazon Simple Storage Service API Reference.
Amazon S3 Website Endpoints

When you configure your bucket as a website, the website is available using the following Region-specific
website endpoints. Note that the website endpoints are different than the REST API endpoints listed in
the preceding table. For more information about hosting websites on Amazon S3, see Hosting Websites
on Amazon S3 in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Developer Guide. You need the hosted zone IDs
when using the Amazon Route 53 API to add an alias record to your hosted zone.
Note
The website endpoints do not support HTTPS or Amazon S3 Access Points.

AWS service endpoints
AWS resources
The following pages provide information that helps you work with AWS resources.
Contents
• AWS service endpoints (p. 536)
• Managing AWS Regions (p. 538)
• AWS service quotas (p. 540)
• Tagging AWS resources (p. 541)
• Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) (p. 544)
AWS service endpoints

To connect programmatically to an AWS service, you use an endpoint. An endpoint is the URL of the
entry point for an AWS web service. The AWS SDKs and the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI)
automatically use the default endpoint for each service in an AWS Region. But you can specify an
alternate endpoint for your API requests.
If a service supports Regions, the resources in each Region are independent of similar resources in other
Regions. For example, you can create an Amazon EC2 instance or an Amazon SQS queue in one Region.
When you do, the instance or queue is independent of instances or queues in all other Regions.

• Regional endpoints (p. 536)
• View the service endpoints (p. 537)
• FIPS endpoints (p. 538)
• Learn more (p. 538)
Regional endpoints
Most Amazon Web Services offer a Regional endpoint that you can use to make your requests. The
general syntax of a Regional endpoint is as follows.
protocol://service-code.region-code.amazonaws.com
For example, https://dynamodb.us-west-2.amazonaws.com is the endpoint for the Amazon

DynamoDB service in the US West (Oregon) Region.

Some services, such as IAM, do not support Regions. The endpoints for these services do not include
a Region. Other services, such as Amazon EC2, support Regions but let you specify an endpoint that
does not include a Region, such as https://ec2.amazonaws.com. When you use an endpoint with
no Region, AWS routes the Amazon EC2 request to US East (N. Virginia) (us-east-1), which is the default
Region for API calls.
View the service endpoints

You can view the AWS service endpoints using the following options:
• Open Service endpoints and quotas (p. 16), search for the service name, and click the link to open
the page for that service. To view the supported endpoints for all AWS services in the documentation
without switching pages, view the information in the Service Endpoints and Quotas page in the PDF
instead.
• To programmatically check for service availability using the SDK for Java, see Checking for Service
Availability in an AWS Region in the AWS SDK for Java Developer Guide.
Version 1.0
537
FIPS endpoints
• To programmatically view Region and service information using Systems Manager, see Calling AWS
Service, Region, and Endpoint Public Parameters in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide. For
information about how to use public parameters, see Query for AWS Regions, Endpoints, and More
Using AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store.
• To see the supported AWS services in each Region (without endpoints), see the Region Table.
FIPS endpoints
Some AWS services offer FIPS endpoints in selected Regions. Unlike standard AWS endpoints, FIPS
endpoints use a TLS software library that complies with Federal Information Processing Standard
(FIPS) 140-2. These endpoints might be required by enterprises that interact with the United States
government. For more information, see Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 on the
AWS Compliance site.
To use a FIPS endpoint with an AWS operation, use the mechanism provided by the AWS SDK or tool to
specify a custom endpoint. For example, the AWS Command Line Interface provides the --endpoint-
url option. The following example uses the FIPS endpoint for the US West (Oregon) Region with an
operation for AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS).
aws kms create-key --endpoint-url https://kms-fips.us-west-2.amazonaws.com
Minimum TLS version for FIPS endpoints

By March 31, 2021, AWS will revoke the ability to use TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 on all FIPS endpoints and
require a minimum version of TLS 1.2. This change applies to all AWS Regions. No other AWS endpoints
are affected by this change. For more information, see Which AWS Services require a minimum version
of TLS 1.2 for FIPS endpoints on the FIPS page.
AWS encourages you to be proactive in maintaining security standards to avoid impacting availability
and to protect the integrity of data in transit. We recommend that you review your client applications to
confirm that they support TLS 1.2. We recommend that you test TLS 1.2 in a staging environment before
you introduce configuration changes to your applications in production.
Learn more
You can find endpoint information from the following sources:
• To learn about enabling Regions that are disabled by default, see Managing AWS Regions (p. 538).
• For information about the AWS services and endpoints available in the China Regions, see China
(Beijing) Region Endpoints and China (Ningxia) Region Endpoints.
• For information about the AWS services and endpoints available in AWS GovCloud (US), see Service
Endpoints in the AWS GovCloud (US) User Guide.
Managing AWS Regions

An AWS Region is a collection of AWS resources in a geographic area. Each AWS Region is isolated and
independent of the other Regions. Regions provide fault tolerance, stability, and resilience, and can also
reduce latency. They enable you to create redundant resources that remain available and unaffected by a
Regional outage. For a list of Region names and codes, see this table (p. 536).
The resources that you create in one Region do not exist in any other Region unless you explicitly use a
replication feature offered by an AWS service. For example, Amazon S3 and Amazon EC2 support cross-
Version 1.0
538
Enabling a Region
Region replication. Some services, such as AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), do not have
Regional resources.
You can use policy conditions to control access to AWS services in an AWS Region. For a table of AWS
services supported in each Region (without endpoints), see the Region Table.
Regions introduced before March 20, 2019 are enabled by default. You can begin creating and managing
resources in these Regions immediately. You cannot enable or disable a Region that is enabled by
default.
Enabling a Region
If a Region is disabled by default, you must enable it before you can create and manage resources. The
following Regions are disabled by default:
• Africa (Cape Town)

• Asia Pacific (Hong Kong)
• Europe (Milan)
• Middle East (Bahrain)
When you enable a Region, AWS performs actions to prepare your account in that Region, such as
distributing your IAM resources to the Region. This process takes a few minutes for most accounts, but
this can take several hours. You cannot use the Region until this process is complete.
Requirements
To enable a Region that is disabled by default, you must have permission to enable Regions. To view an
example IAM policy, see Allow enabling and disabling AWS Regions in the IAM User Guide.
To enable a Region
1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console.

2. In the upper right corner of the console, choose your account name or number and then choose My
Account.
3. In the AWS Regions section, next to the name of the Region that you want to enable, choose
Enable.
4. In the dialog box, review the informational text and choose Enable Region.
5. Wait until the Region is ready to use.
Disabling a Region
After you disable a Region, the resources in this Region are immediately unavailable. However, they are
not deleted. You cannot disable a Region that is enabled by default.
Requirements
• To disable a Region, you must have permission to disable Regions. To view an example IAM policy, see
Allow enabling and disabling AWS Regions in the IAM User Guide.
• Before you disable a Region, we recommend that you remove all resources from that Region. After you
disable a Region, you can no longer view or manage resources in that Region. However, resources in
that Region can continue to incur charges. For more information, see Enabling and disabling Regions in
the AWS Billing and Cost Management User Guide.

Describing your Regions using the AWS CLI
To disable a Region
1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console.

2. In the upper right corner of the console, choose your account name or number and then choose My
Account.
3. In the AWS Regions section, next to the name of the Region that you want to disable, choose
Disable.
4. In the dialog box, review the informational text and choose Disable Region.
Describing your Regions using the AWS CLI

Use the describe-regions command to describe the Regions available for your account, whether they are
enabled or disabled.
aws ec2 describe-regions --all-regions
If the Region is enabled by default, the output includes the following:
"OptInStatus": "opt-in-not-required"
If the Region is not enabled, the output includes the following:
"OptInStatus": "not-opted-in"
After an opt-in Region is enabled, the output includes the following:
"OptInStatus": "opted-in"
AWS service quotas

Your AWS account has default quotas, formerly referred to as limits, for each AWS service. Unless
otherwise noted, each quota is Region-specific. You can request increases for some quotas, and other
quotas cannot be increased.
Service Quotas is an AWS service that helps you manage your quotas for over 100 AWS services, from
one location. Along with looking up the quota values, you can also request a quota increase from the
Service Quotas console.
To view your quotas
You can view your quotas using the following options:
• Open the Service endpoints and quotas (p. 16) page in the documentation, search for the service
name, and click the link to go to the page for that service. To view the service quotas for all AWS
services in the documentation without switching pages, view the information in the Service Endpoints
and Quotas page in the PDF instead.
• Open the Service Quotas console. In the navigation pane, choose AWS services and select a service.
• Use the list-service-quotas and list-aws-default-service-quotas AWS CLI commands.
Version 1.0
540
Tagging AWS resources
To request a quota increase
You can request a quota increase using Service Quotas and AWS Support Center. If a service is not yet
available in Service Quotas, use AWS Support Center instead. Increases are not granted immediately. It
might take a couple of days for your increase to become effective.
• (Recommended) Open the Service Quotas console. In the navigation pane, choose AWS services.
Select a service, select a quota, and follow the directions to request a quota increase. For more
information, see Requesting a Quota Increase in the Service Quotas User Guide.
• Use the request-service-quota-increase AWS CLI command.
• Open the AWS Support Center page, sign in if necessary, and choose Create case. Choose Service limit
increase. Complete and submit the form.
Tagging AWS resources

You can assign metadata to your AWS resources in the form of tags. Each tag is a label consisting of a
user-defined key and value. Tags can help you manage, identify, organize, search for, and filter resources.
You can create tags to categorize resources by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.
Important
Do not add personally identifiable information (PII) or other confidential or sensitive
information in tags. Tags are accessible to many AWS services, including billing. Tags are not
intended to be used for private or sensitive data.
This topic describes commonly used tagging categories and strategies to help you implement a
consistent and effective tagging strategy. The following sections assume basic knowledge of AWS
resources, tagging, detailed billing, and AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM).
Each tag has two parts:
• A tag key (for example, CostCenter, Environment, or Project). Tag keys are case sensitive.
• A tag value (for example, 111122223333 or Production). Like tag keys, tag values are case sensitive.
You can use tags to categorize resources by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria. For more
information, see AWS Tagging Strategies.
You can add, change, or remove tags one resource at a time from each resource’s service console, service
API, or the AWS CLI.
Best practices
As you create a tagging strategy for AWS resources, follow best practices:
• Do not store personally identifiable information (PII) or other confidential or sensitive information in
tags.
• Use a standardized, case-sensitive format for tags, and apply it consistently across all resource types.
• Consider tag guidelines that support multiple purposes, like managing resource access control, cost
tracking, automation, and organization.
• Use automated tools to help manage resource tags. AWS Resource Groups and the Resource Groups
Tagging API enable programmatic control of tags, making it easier to automatically manage, search,
and filter tags and resources.
• Use too many tags rather than too few tags.
Version 1.0
541
Tagging categories
• Remember that it is easy to change tags to accommodate changing business requirements, but
consider the consequences of future changes. For example, changing access control tags means you
must also update the policies that reference those tags and control access to your resources.
Tagging categories
Companies that are most effective in their use of tags typically create business-relevant tag groupings
to organize their resources along technical, business, and security dimensions. Companies that use
automated processes to manage their infrastructure also include additional, automation-specific tags.

Tag naming limits and requirements

The following basic naming and usage requirements apply to tags:
• Each resource can have a maximum of 50 user created tags.

Note
System created tags that begin with aws: are reserved for AWS use, and do not count against
this limit. You can't edit or delete a tag that begins with the aws: prefix.
• For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.
• The tag key must be a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8.
Version 1.0
542
Common tagging strategies
• The tag value must be a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8.
Note
Some services don't permit tags with an empty value (length of 0).
• Allowed characters can vary by AWS service. For information about what characters you can use to tag
resources in a particular AWS service, see its documentation. In general, allowed characters in tags are
letters, numbers, spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: _ . : / = + - @ .
• Tag keys and values are case sensitive. As a best practice, decide on a strategy for capitalizing tags,
and consistently implement that strategy across all resource types. For example, decide whether to use
Costcenter, costcenter, or CostCenter, and use the same convention for all tags. Avoid using
similar tags with inconsistent case treatment.
Common tagging strategies

This section describes common tagging strategies to help identify and manage AWS resources.
Tags for resource organization

Tags are a good way to organize AWS resources in the AWS Management Console. You can configure tags
to be displayed with resources, and can search and filter by tag. With the AWS Resource Groups service,
you can create groups of AWS resources based on one or more tags or portions of tags. You can also
create groups based on their occurrence in an AWS CloudFormation stack. Using Resource Groups and
Tag Editor, you can consolidate and view data for applications that consist of multiple services, resources,
and Regions in one place.
Tags for cost allocation

AWS Cost Explorer and detailed billing reports let you break down AWS costs by tag. Typically, you
use business tags such as cost center/business unit, customer, or project to associate AWS costs with
traditional cost-allocation dimensions. But a cost allocation report can include any tag. This lets you
associate costs with technical or security dimensions, such as specific applications, environments, or
compliance programs. The following is an example of a partial cost allocation report.
For some services, you can use an AWS-generated createdBy tag for cost allocation purposes, to help
account for resources that might otherwise go uncategorized. The createdBy tag is available only for
supported AWS services and resources. Its value contains data associated with specific API or console
events. For more information, see AWS-Generated Cost Allocation Tags in the AWS Billing and Cost
Management User Guide.
Tags for automation

Resource or service-specific tags are often used to filter resources during automation activities.
Automation tags are used to opt in or opt out of automated tasks or to identify specific versions of
Version 1.0
543
Tagging governance
resources to archive, update, or delete. For example, you can run automated start or stop scripts that
turn off development environments during nonbusiness hours to reduce costs. In this scenario, Amazon
Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance tags are a simple way to identify instances to opt out of
this action. For scripts that find and delete stale, out-of-date, or rolling Amazon EBS snapshots, snapshot
tags can add an extra dimension of search criteria.
Tags for access control

IAM policies support tag-based conditions, letting you constrain IAM permissions based on specific tags
or tag values. For example, IAM user or role permissions can include conditions to limit EC2 API calls to
specific environments (such as development, test, or production) based on their tags. The same strategy
can be used to limit API calls to specific Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) networks. Support
for tag-based, resource-level IAM permissions is service specific. When you use tag-based conditions for
access control, be sure to define and restrict who can modify the tags. For more information about using
tags to control API access to AWS resources, see AWS Services That Work with IAM in the IAM User Guide.
Tagging governance
An effective tagging strategy uses standardized tags and applies them consistently and
programmatically across AWS resources. You can use both reactive and proactive approaches for
governing tags in your AWS environment.
• Reactive governance is for finding resources that are not properly tagged using tools such as the
Resource Groups Tagging API, AWS Config Rules, and custom scripts. To find resources manually, you
can use Tag Editor and detailed billing reports.
• Proactive governance uses tools such as AWS CloudFormation, AWS Service Catalog, tag policies in
AWS Organizations, or IAM resource-level permissions to ensure standardized tags are consistently
applied at resource creation.
For example, you can use the AWS CloudFormation Resource Tags property to apply tags to
resource types. In AWS Service Catalog, you can add portfolio and product tags that are combined and
applied to a product automatically when it is launched. More rigorous forms of proactive governance
include automated tasks. For example, you can use the Resource Groups Tagging API to search an AWS
environment’s tags, or run scripts to quarantine or delete improperly tagged resources.
Learn more
This page provides general information on tagging AWS resources. For more information about tagging
resources in a particular AWS service, see its documentation. The following are also good sources of
information about tagging:
• For a list of services that support tagging, see the Resource Groups Tagging API Reference.
• For information about Tag Editor, see Working with Tag Editor in the AWS Resource Groups User Guide.
• For information about using tags to control access to AWS resources, see Control Access Using IAM
Tags in the IAM User Guide.
Amazon Resource Names (ARNs)

Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) uniquely identify AWS resources. We require an ARN when you need to
specify a resource unambiguously across all of AWS, such as in IAM policies, Amazon Relational Database
Service (Amazon RDS) tags, and API calls.
Contents
Version 1.0
544
Format
• Format (p. 545)

• Resource ARNs (p. 546)
Format
The following are the general formats for ARNs. The specific formats depend on the resource. To use an
ARN, replace the italicized text with the resource-specific information. Be aware that the ARNs for
some resources omit the Region, the account ID, or both the Region and the account ID.
arn:partition:service:region:account-id:resource-id
arn:partition:service:region:account-id:resource-type/resource-id
arn:partition:service:region:account-id:resource-type:resource-id
partition
The partition in which the resource is located. A partition is a group of AWS Regions. Each AWS
account is scoped to one partition.
The following are the supported partitions:

• aws -AWS Regions
• aws-cn - China Regions
• aws-us-gov - AWS GovCloud (US) Regions
service
The service namespace that identifies the AWS product. For example, s3 for Amazon S3 resources.
region
The Region. For example, us-east-2 for US East (Ohio).

account-id
The ID of the AWS account that owns the resource, without the hyphens. For example,
123456789012.
resource-id
The resource identifier. This part of the ARN can be the name or ID of the resource or a resource
path (p. 545). For example, user/Bob for an IAM user or instance/i-1234567890abcdef0 for
an EC2 instance. Some resource identifiers include a parent resource (sub-resource-type/parent-
resource/sub-resource) or a qualifier such as a version (resource-type:resource-name:qualifier).
Paths in ARNs
Resource ARNs can include a path. For example, in Amazon S3, the resource identifier is an object name
that can include slashes (/) to form a path. Similarly, IAM user names and group names can include
paths.
Paths can include a wildcard character, namely an asterisk (*). For example, if you are writing an IAM
policy, you can specify all IAM users that have the path product_1234 using a wildcard as follows:
arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/Development/product_1234/*
Similarly, you can specify user/* to mean all users or group/* to mean all groups, as in the following
examples:
Version 1.0
545
Resource ARNs
"Resource":"arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/*"
"Resource":"arn:aws:iam::123456789012:group/*"
You cannot use a wildcard to specify all users in the Principal element in a resource-based policy or a
role trust policy. Groups are not supported as principals in any policy.
The following example shows ARNs for an Amazon S3 bucket in which the resource name includes a
path:
arn:aws:s3:::my_corporate_bucket/*
arn:aws:s3:::my_corporate_bucket/Development/*
You cannot use a wildcard in the portion of the ARN that specifies the resource type, such as the term
user in an IAM ARN.
The following is not allowed:
arn:aws:iam::123456789012:u*
Resource ARNs
The documentation for AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) lists the ARNs supported by each
service for use in resource-level permissions. For more information, see Actions, Resources, and Condition
Keys for AWS Services in the IAM User Guide.

Implementing egress control

To allow an instance to access only AWS services, create a security group with rules that allow outbound
traffic to the CIDR blocks in the AMAZON list, minus the CIDR blocks that are also in the EC2 list. IP
addresses in the EC2 list can be assigned to EC2 instances.

API retries
AWS APIs
The following pages provide information that is useful when using an AWS API.
Contents
• Error retries and exponential backoff in AWS (p. 556)
• Signing AWS API requests (p. 558)
• AWS SDK support for Amazon S3 client-side encryption (p. 599)
Error retries and exponential backoff in AWS

Numerous components on a network, such as DNS servers, switches, load balancers, and others can
generate errors anywhere in the life of a given request. The usual technique for dealing with these error
responses in a networked environment is to implement retries in the client application. This technique
increases the reliability of the application and reduces operational costs for the developer.
Each AWS SDK implements automatic retry logic. The AWS SDK for Java automatically retries requests,
and you can configure the retry settings using the ClientConfiguration class. For example, you
might want to turn off the retry logic for a web page that makes a request with minimal latency and no
retries. Use the ClientConfiguration class and provide a maxErrorRetry value of 0 to turn off the
retries.
If you're not using an AWS SDK, you should retry original requests that receive server (5xx) or throttling
errors. However, client errors (4xx) indicate that you need to revise the request to correct the problem
before trying again.
In addition to simple retries, each AWS SDK implements exponential backoff algorithm for better flow
control. The idea behind exponential backoff is to use progressively longer waits between retries for
consecutive error responses. You should implement a maximum delay interval, as well as a maximum
number of retries. The maximum delay interval and maximum number of retries are not necessarily fixed
values, and should be set based on the operation being performed, as well as other local factors, such as
network latency.
Most exponential backoff algorithms use jitter (randomized delay) to prevent successive collisions.
Because you aren't trying to avoid such collisions in these cases, you don't need to use this random
number. However, if you use concurrent clients, jitter can help your requests succeed faster. For more
information, see the blog post for Exponential Backoff and Jitter.
The following pseudo code shows one way to poll for a status using an incremental delay.
Do some asynchronous operation.
retries = 0
DO
wait for (2^retries * 100) milliseconds
status = Get the result of the asynchronous operation.
IF status = SUCCESS
retry = false

public enum Results {

public static void doOperationAndWaitForResult() {
// Do some asynchronous operation.
long token = asyncOperation();
int retries = 0;
boolean retry = false;
do {
long waitTime = Math.min(getWaitTimeExp(retries), MAX_WAIT_INTERVAL);
System.out.print(waitTime + "\n");
try {
// Wait for the result.
Thread.sleep(waitTime);
// Get the result of the asynchronous operation.

Results result = getAsyncOperationResult(token);
if (Results.SUCCESS == result) {
retry = false;
} else if (Results.NOT_READY == result) {
retry = true;
} else if (Results.THROTTLED == result) {
retry = true;
} else if (Results.SERVER_ERROR == result) {
retry = true;
} else {
// Some other error occurred, so stop calling the API.
retry = false;

Signing AWS API requests

When you send HTTP requests to AWS, you sign the requests so that AWS can identify who sent them.
You sign requests with your AWS access key, which consists of an access key ID and secret access key.
Some requests do not need to be signed, such as anonymous requests to Amazon Simple Storage
Service (Amazon S3) and some API operations in AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) such as
AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity.
Note
You need to learn how to sign HTTP requests only when you manually create them. When you
use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or one of the AWS SDKs to make requests to
AWS, these tools automatically sign the requests for you with the access key that you specify
when you configure the tools. When you use these tools, you don't need to learn how to sign
requests yourself.
To learn how to create, view, and download access key IDs and secret access keys, see
Programmatic access (p. 5).
When to sign requests

When you write custom code to send HTTP requests to AWS, you need to include code to sign the
requests. You might do this for the following reasons:
• You are working with a programming language for which there is no AWS SDK.
• You want complete control over how a request is sent to AWS.
You don't need to sign a request when you use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or one of the
AWS SDKs. These tools manage the connection details, such as calculating signatures, handling request
retries, and error handling. In most cases, they also contain sample code, tutorials, and other resources to
help you get started writing applications that interact with AWS.
Why requests are signed

The signing process helps secure requests in the following ways:
• Verify the identity of the requester
Signing makes sure that the request has been sent by someone with a valid access key. For more
information, see Understanding and getting your AWS credentials (p. 3).
• Protect data in transit
To prevent tampering with a request while it's in transit, some of the request elements are used to
calculate a hash (digest) of the request, and the resulting hash value is included as part of the request.
Version 1.0
558
Signing requests
When an AWS service receives the request, it uses the same information to calculate a hash and
matches it against the hash value in your request. If the values don't match, AWS denies the request.
• Protect against potential replay attacks
In most cases, a request must reach AWS within five minutes of the time stamp in the request.
Otherwise, AWS denies the request.
Signing requests
To sign a request, you first calculate a hash (digest) of the request. Then you use the hash value, some
other information from the request, and your secret access key to calculate another hash known as the
signature. Then you add the signature to the request in one of the following ways:
• Using the HTTP Authorization header.

• Adding a query string value to the request. Because the signature is part of the URL in this case, this
type of URL is called a presigned URL.
Signature versions
AWS supports two signature versions: Signature Version 4 and Signature Version 2. You should use
Signature Version 4. All AWS services support Signature Version 4, except Amazon SimpleDB which
requires Signature Version 2. For AWS services that support both versions, we recommend that you use
Signature Version 4.
All AWS Regions support Signature Version 4.
Version 1.0
559
Signature Version 4 signing process

Signature Version 4 is the process to add authentication information to AWS requests sent by HTTP. For
security, most requests to AWS must be signed with an access key, which consists of an access key ID and
secret access key. These two keys are commonly referred to as your security credentials. For details on
how to obtain credentials for your account, see Understanding and getting your AWS credentials (p. 3).
Important
When you use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or one of the AWS SDKs to
make requests to AWS, these tools automatically sign the requests for you with the security
credentials you specify when you configure the tools. When you use these tools, you don't need
to learn how to sign requests yourself. However, when you manually create HTTP requests to
access AWS services, you must sign requests that require signing yourself.
How Signature Version 4 works
1. Create a canonical request.

2. Use the canonical request and additional metadata to create a string for signing.
3. Derive a signing key from your AWS secret access key. Then use the signing key, and the string from
the previous step, to create a signature.
4. Add the resulting signature to the HTTP request in a header or as a query string parameter.
When an AWS service receives the request, it performs the same steps that you did to calculate the
signature you sent in your request. AWS then compares its calculated signature to the one you sent with
the request. If the signatures match, the request is processed. If the signatures don't match, the request
is denied.
For more information, see the following resources:
• To get started with the signing process, see Signing AWS requests with Signature Version 4 (p. 563).
• For sample signed requests, see Examples of the complete Signature Version 4 signing process
(Python) (p. 582).
• If you have questions about Signature Version 4, post your question in the AWS Identity and Access
Management forum.
Version 1.0
560
Changes in Signature Version 4

Signature Version 4 is the current AWS signing protocol. It includes several changes from the previous
Signature Version 2:
• To sign your message, you use a signing key that is derived from your secret access key rather than
using the secret access key itself. For more information about deriving keys, see Task 3: Calculate the
signature for AWS Signature Version 4 (p. 574).
• You derive your signing key from the credential scope, which means that you don't need to include the
key itself in the request. Credential scope is represented by a slash-separated string of dimensions in
the following order:
1. Date information as an eight-digit string representing the year (YYYY), month (MM), and day (DD)
of the request (for example, 20150830). For more information about handling dates, see Handling
dates in Signature Version 4 (p. 578).
2. Region information as a lowercase alphanumeric string. Use the Region name that is part of the
service's endpoint. For services with a globally unique endpoint such as IAM, use us-east-1.
3. Service name information as a lowercase alphanumeric string (for example, iam). Use the
service name that is part of the service's endpoint. For example, the IAM endpoint is https://
iam.amazonaws.com, so you use the string iam as part of the Credential parameter.
4. A special termination string: aws4_request.
• You use the credential scope in each signing task:
• If you add signing information to the query string, include the credential scope as part of the X-
Amz-Credential parameter when you create the canonical request in Task 1: Create a canonical
request for Signature Version 4 (p. 566).
• You must include the credential scope as part of your string to sign in Task 2: Create a string to sign
for Signature Version 4 (p. 572).
• Finally, you use the date, Region, and service name components of the credential scope to derive
your signing key in Task 3: Calculate the signature for AWS Signature Version 4 (p. 574).
Version 1.0
561
Elements of an AWS Signature Version 4 request

Each HTTP/HTTPS request that uses version 4 signing must contain these elements.
• Endpoint Specification
• Action
• Required and Optional Parameters
• Date
• Authentication Parameters
Endpoint specification
This is specified as the Host header in HTTP/1.1 requests. This header specifies the DNS name of the
computer to which you send the request, like dynamodb.us-east-1.amazonaws.com.
You must include the Host header with HTTP/1.1 requests. For HTTP/2 requests, you can use the
:authority header or the Host header. Use only the :authority header for compliance with the
HTTP/2 specification. Not all services support HTTP/2 requests, so check the service documentation for
details.
The endpoint usually contains the service name and Region, both of which you must use as part of the
Credential authentication parameter. For example, the Amazon DynamoDB endpoint for the eu-
west-1 Region is dynamodb.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com. If you don't specify a Region, a web service
uses the default Region, us-east-1. If you use a service like IAM that uses a globally unique endpoint,
use the default Region (us-east-1), as part of the Credential authentication parameter (described
later in this topic).
For a complete list of endpoints supported by AWS, see Regions and Endpoints.
Action
This element specifies the action that you want a web service to perform, such as the DynamoDB
CreateTable action or the Amazon EC2 DescribeInstances action. The specified action determines
the parameters used in the request. For query APIs, the action is an API name. For non-query APIs (such
as RESTful APIs), see the service documentation for the appropriate actions.
Required and optional parameters

This element specifies the parameters to the request action. Each action in a web service has a set of
required and optional parameters that define an API call. The API version is usually a required parameter.
See the service documentation for the details of required and optional parameters.
Date
This is the date and time at which you make the request. Including the date in the request helps prevent
third parties from intercepting your request and resubmitting it later. The date is specified using the
ISO8601 Basic format via the x-amz-date header in the YYYYMMDD'T'HHMMSS'Z' format.
Authentication parameters
Each request that you send must include the following set of parameters that AWS uses to ensure the
validity and authenticity of the request.
• Algorithm. The hash algorithm that you're using as part of the signing process. For example, if you use
SHA-256 to create hashes, use the value AWS4-HMAC-SHA256.
Version 1.0
562
• Credential scope. A string separated by slashes ("/") that is formed by concatenating your access key
ID and your credential scope components. Credential scope includes the date in YYYYMMDD format,
the AWS Region, the service name, and a special termination string (aws4_request). For example, the
following string represents the Credential parameter for an IAM request in the us-east-1 Region.
AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE/20111015/us-east-1/iam/aws4_request
Important
You must use lowercase characters for the Region, service name, and special termination
string.
• SignedHeaders A list delimited by semicolons (";") of HTTP/HTTPS headers to include in the signature.
• Signature A hexadecimal-encoded string that represents the output of the signature operation
described in Task 3: Calculate the signature for AWS Signature Version 4 (p. 574). You must calculate
the signature using the algorithm that you specified in the Algorithm parameter.
To view sample signed requests, see Examples of the complete Signature Version 4 signing process
(Python) (p. 582).
Signing AWS requests with Signature Version 4

This section explains how to create a signature and add it to an HTTP request to AWS.
Summary of signing steps

To create a signed request, complete the following:
• Task 1: Create a canonical request for Signature Version 4 (p. 566)
Arrange the contents of your request (host, action, headers, etc.) into a standard (canonical) format.
The canonical request is one of the inputs used to create a string to sign.
• Task 2: Create a string to sign for Signature Version 4 (p. 572)
Create a string to sign with the canonical request and extra information such as the algorithm, request
date, credential scope, and the digest (hash) of the canonical request.
• Task 3: Calculate the signature for AWS Signature Version 4 (p. 574)
Derive a signing key by performing a succession of keyed hash operations (HMAC operations) on the
request date, Region, and service, with your AWS secret access key as the key for the initial hashing
operation. After you derive the signing key, you then calculate the signature by performing a keyed
hash operation on the string to sign. Use the derived signing key as the hash key for this operation.
• Task 4: Add the signature to the HTTP request (p. 576)
After you calculate the signature, add it to an HTTP header or to the query string of the request.
Important
The AWS SDKs handle the signature calculation process for you, so you do not have to manually
complete the signing process. For more information, see Tools for Amazon Web Services.
Version 1.0

Additional resources
The following resources illustrate aspects of the signing process:
• Examples of how to derive a signing key for Signature Version 4 (p. 579). This page shows how to
derive a signing key using Java, C#, Python, Ruby, and JavaScript.
• Examples of the complete Signature Version 4 signing process (Python) (p. 582). This set of programs
in Python provide complete examples of the signing process. The examples show signing with a POST
request, with a GET request that has signing information in a request header, and with a GET request
that has signing information in the query string.
What signing looks like in a request

The following example shows what an HTTPS request might look like as it is sent from your client to
AWS, without any signing information.

Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8

X-Amz-Date: 20150830T123600Z
After you complete the signing tasks, you add the authentication information to the request. You can
add the authentication information in two ways:
Authorization header
You can add the authentication information to the request with an Authorization header. Although
the HTTP header is named Authorization, the signing information is actually used for authentication
to establish who the request came from.
The Authorization header includes the following information:
• Algorithm you used for signing (AWS4-HMAC-SHA256)

• Credential scope (with your access key ID)
• List of signed headers
• Calculated signature. The signature is based on your request information, and you use your AWS secret
access key to produce the signature. The signature confirms your identity to AWS.
The following example shows what the preceding request might look like after you've created the
signing information and added it to the request in the Authorization header.
Note that in the actual request, the Authorization header would appear as a continuous line of text.
The version below has been formatted for readability.

Authorization: AWS4-HMAC-SHA256
Credential=AKIDEXAMPLE/20150830/us-east-1/iam/aws4_request,
SignedHeaders=content-type;host;x-amz-date,
Signature=5d672d79c15b13162d9279b0855cfba6789a8edb4c82c400e06b5924a6f2b5d7
content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8
host: iam.amazonaws.com
x-amz-date: 20150830T123600Z
Query string
Version 1.0
564
As an alternative to adding authentication information with an HTTP request header, you can include it
in the query string. The query string contains everything that is part of the request, including the name
and parameters for the action, the date, and the authentication information.
The following example shows how you might construct a GET request with the action and authentication
information in the query string.
(In the actual request, the query string would appear as a continuous line of text. The version below has
been formatted with line breaks for readability.)
GET https://iam.amazonaws.com?Action=ListUsers&Version=2010-05-08
&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256
&X-Amz-Credential=AKIDEXAMPLE%2F20150830%2Fus-east-1%2Fiam%2Faws4_request
&X-Amz-Date=20150830T123600Z
&X-Amz-Expires=60
&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=content-type%3Bhost
&X-Amz-Signature=37ac2f4fde00b0ac9bd9eadeb459b1bbee224158d66e7ae5fcadb70b2d181d02 HTTP/1.1
content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8
host: iam.amazonaws.com
GET and POST requests in the Query API

The query API that many AWS services support lets you make requests using either HTTP GET or POST.
(In the query API, you can use GET even if you're making requests that change state; that is, the query
API is not inherently RESTful.) Because GET requests pass parameters on the query string, they are
limited to the maximum length of a URL. If a request includes a large payload (for example, you might
upload a large IAM policy or send many parameters in JSON format for a DynamoDB request), you
generally use a POST request.
The signing process is the same for both types of requests.
Version 1.0
565
Task 1: Create a canonical request for Signature Version 4

To begin the signing process, create a string that includes information from your request in a
standardized (canonical) format. This ensures that when AWS receives the request, it can calculate the
same signature that you calculated.
Follow the steps here to create a canonical version of the request. Otherwise, your version and the
version calculated by AWS won't match, and the request will be denied.
The following example shows the pseudocode to create a canonical request.
Example Canonical request pseudocode
CanonicalRequest =
HTTPRequestMethod + '\n' +
CanonicalURI + '\n' +
CanonicalQueryString + '\n' +
CanonicalHeaders + '\n' +
SignedHeaders + '\n' +
HexEncode(Hash(RequestPayload))
In this pseudocode, Hash represents a function that produces a message digest, typically SHA-256. (Later
in the process, you specify which hashing algorithm you're using.) HexEncode represents a function
that returns the base-16 encoding of the digest in lowercase characters. For example, HexEncode("m")
returns the value 6d rather than 6D. Each input byte must be represented as exactly two hexadecimal
characters.
Signature Version 4 does not require that you use a particular character encoding to encode the
canonical request. However, some AWS services might require a specific encoding. For more information,
consult the documentation for that service.
The following examples show how to construct the canonical form of a request to IAM. The original
request might look like this as it is sent from the client to AWS, except that this example does not include
the signing information yet.
Example Request

X-Amz-Date: 20150830T123600Z
The preceding example request is a GET request (method) that makes a ListUsers API (action) call to
AWS Identity and Access Management (host). This action takes the Version parameter.
To create a canonical request, concatenate the following components from each step into a
single string:
1. Start with the HTTP request method (GET, PUT, POST, etc.), followed by a newline character.
Example Request method
GET
2. Add the canonical URI parameter, followed by a newline character. The canonical URI is the URI-
encoded version of the absolute path component of the URI, which is everything in the URI from the
HTTP host to the question mark character ("?") that begins the query string parameters (if any).
Version 1.0
566
Normalize URI paths according to RFC 3986. Remove redundant and relative path components. Each
path segment must be URI-encoded twice (except for Amazon S3 which only gets URI-encoded
once).
Example Canonical URI with encoding
/documents%2520and%2520settings/
Note
In exception to this, you do not normalize URI paths for requests to Amazon S3.
For example, if you have a bucket with an object named my-object//example//
photo.user, use that path. Normalizing the path to my-object/example/photo.user
will cause the request to fail. For more information, see Task 1: Create a Canonical Request
in the Amazon Simple Storage Service API Reference.
If the absolute path is empty, use a forward slash (/). In the example IAM request, nothing follows
the host in the URI, so the absolute path is empty.
Example Canonical URI
3. Add the canonical query string, followed by a newline character. If the request does not include a
query string, use an empty string (essentially, a blank line). The example request has the following
query string.
Example Canonical query string
Action=ListUsers&Version=2010-05-08
To construct the canonical query string, complete the following steps:
a. Sort the parameter names by character code point in ascending order. Parameters with
duplicate names should be sorted by value. For example, a parameter name that begins with
the uppercase letter F precedes a parameter name that begins with a lowercase letter b.
b. URI-encode each parameter name and value according to the following rules:
• Do not URI-encode any of the unreserved characters that RFC 3986 defines: A-Z, a-z, 0-9,
hyphen ( - ), underscore ( _ ), period ( . ), and tilde ( ~ ).
• Percent-encode all other characters with %XY, where X and Y are hexadecimal characters (0-9
and uppercase A-F). For example, the space character must be encoded as %20 (not using '+',
as some encoding schemes do) and extended UTF-8 characters must be in the form %XY%ZA
%BC.
• Double-encode any equals ( = ) characters in parameter values.
c. Build the canonical query string by starting with the first parameter name in the sorted list.
d. For each parameter, append the URI-encoded parameter name, followed by the equals
sign character (=), followed by the URI-encoded parameter value. Use an empty string for
parameters that have no value.
e. Append the ampersand character (&) after each parameter value, except for the last value in the
list.
One option for the query API is to put all request parameters in the query string. For example, you
can do this for Amazon S3 to create aVersion
presigned
1.0 URL. In that case, the canonical query string must
567
include not only parameters for the request, but also the parameters used as part of the signing
process—the hashing algorithm, credential scope, date, and signed headers parameters.
The following example shows a query string that includes authentication information. The example
is formatted with line breaks for readability, but the canonical query string must be one continuous
line of text in your code.
Example Authentication parameters in a query string
Action=ListUsers&
Version=2010-05-08&
X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&
X-Amz-Credential=AKIDEXAMPLE%2F20150830%2Fus-east-1%2Fiam%2Faws4_request&
X-Amz-Date=20150830T123600Z&
X-Amz-SignedHeaders=content-type%3Bhost%3Bx-amz-date
For more information about authentication parameters, see Task 2: Create a string to sign for
Signature Version 4 (p. 572).
Note
You can use temporary security credentials provided by the AWS Security Token Service
(AWS STS) to sign a request. The process is the same as using long-term credentials, but
when you add signing information to the query string you must add an additional query
parameter for the security token. The parameter name is X-Amz-Security-Token, and
the parameter's value is the URI-encoded session token (the string you received from AWS
STS when you obtained temporary security credentials).
For some services, you must include the X-Amz-Security-Token query parameter in the
canonical (signed) query string. For other services, you add the X-Amz-Security-Token
parameter at the end, after you calculate the signature. For details, see the API reference
documentation for that service.
4. Add the canonical headers, followed by a newline character. The canonical headers consist of a list of
all the HTTP headers that you are including with the signed request.
For HTTP/1.1 requests, you must include the host header at a minimum. Standard headers like
content-type are optional. For HTTP/2 requests, you must include the :authority header
instead of the host header. Different services might require other headers.
Example Canonical headers
content-type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8\n
host:iam.amazonaws.com\n
x-amz-date:20150830T123600Z\n
To create the canonical headers list, convert all header names to lowercase and remove leading
spaces and trailing spaces. Convert sequential spaces in the header value to a single space.
The following pseudocode describes how to construct the canonical list of headers:
CanonicalHeaders =
CanonicalHeadersEntry0 + CanonicalHeadersEntry1 + ... + CanonicalHeadersEntryN
CanonicalHeadersEntry =
Lowercase(HeaderName) + ':' + Trimall(HeaderValue) + '\n'
Lowercase represents a function that converts all characters to lowercase. The Trimall function
removes excess white space before and after values, and converts sequential spaces to a single
space.
Version 1.0
568
Build the canonical headers list by sorting the (lowercase) headers by character code and then
iterating through the header names. Construct each header according to the following rules:
• Append the lowercase header name followed by a colon.

• Append a comma-separated list of values for that header. Do not sort the values in headers that
have multiple values.
• Append a new line ('\n').
The following examples compare a more complex set of headers with their canonical form:
Example Original headers
Host:iam.amazonaws.com\n
Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8\n
My-header1: a b c \n
X-Amz-Date:20150830T123600Z\n
My-Header2: "a b c" \n
Example Canonical form
content-type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8\n
host:iam.amazonaws.com\n
my-header1:a b c\n
my-header2:"a b c"\n
x-amz-date:20150830T123600Z\n
Note
Each header is followed by a newline character, meaning the complete list ends with a
newline character.
In the canonical form, the following changes were made:
• The header names were converted to lowercase characters.

• The headers were sorted by character code.
• Leading and trailing spaces were removed from the my-header1 and my-header2 values.
• Sequential spaces in a b c were converted to a single space for the my-header1 and my-
header2 values.
Note
You can use temporary security credentials provided by the AWS Security Token Service
(AWS STS) to sign a request. The process is the same as using long-term credentials, but
when you include signing information in the Authorization header you must add an
additional HTTP header for the security token. The header name is X-Amz-Security-
Token, and the header's value is the session token (the string you received from AWS STS
when you obtained temporary security credentials).
5. Add the signed headers, followed by a newline character. This value is the list of headers that you
included in the canonical headers. By adding this list of headers, you tell AWS which headers in the
request are part of the signing process and which ones AWS can ignore (for example, any additional
headers added by a proxy) for purposes of validating the request.
For HTTP/1.1 requests, the host header must be included as a signed header. For HTTP/2
requests that include the :authority header instead of the host header, you must include the
Version 1.0
569
:authority header as a signed header. If you include a date or x-amz-date header, you must also
include that header in the list of signed headers.
To create the signed headers list, convert all header names to lowercase, sort them by character
code, and use a semicolon to separate the header names. The following pseudocode describes how
to construct a list of signed headers. Lowercase represents a function that converts all characters
to lowercase.
SignedHeaders =
Lowercase(HeaderName0) + ';' + Lowercase(HeaderName1) + ";" + ... +
Lowercase(HeaderNameN)
Build the signed headers list by iterating through the collection of header names, sorted by
lowercase character code. For each header name except the last, append a semicolon (';') to the
header name to separate it from the following header name.
Example Signed headers
content-type;host;x-amz-date\n
6. Use a hash (digest) function like SHA256 to create a hashed value from the payload in the body of
the HTTP or HTTPS request. Signature Version 4 does not require that you use a particular character
encoding to encode text in the payload. However, some AWS services might require a specific
encoding. For more information, consult the documentation for that service.
Example Structure of payload
HashedPayload = Lowercase(HexEncode(Hash(requestPayload)))
When you create the string to sign, you specify the signing algorithm that you used to hash the
payload. For example, if you used SHA256, you will specify AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 as the signing
algorithm. The hashed payload must be represented as a lowercase hexadecimal string.
If the payload is empty, use an empty string as the input to the hash function. In the IAM example,
the payload is empty.
Example Hashed payload (empty string)
e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855
7. To construct the finished canonical request, combine all the components from each step as a single
string. As noted, each component ends with a newline character. If you follow the canonical request
pseudocode explained earlier, the resulting canonical request is shown in the following example.
Example Canonical request
GET
/
Action=ListUsers&Version=2010-05-08
content-type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8
host:iam.amazonaws.com
x-amz-date:20150830T123600Z
content-type;host;x-amz-date
e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855
Version 1.0
570
8. Create a digest (hash) of the canonical request with the same algorithm that you used to hash the
payload.
Note
Signature Version 4 does not require that you use a particular character encoding to encode
the canonical request before calculating the digest. However, some AWS services might
require a specific encoding. For more information, consult the documentation for that
service.
The hashed canonical request must be represented as a string of lowercase hexadecimal characters.
The following example shows the result of using SHA-256 to hash the example canonical request.
Example Hashed canonical request
f536975d06c0309214f805bb90ccff089219ecd68b2577efef23edd43b7e1a59
You include the hashed canonical request as part of the string to sign in Task 2: Create a string to
sign for Signature Version 4 (p. 572).
Version 1.0
571
Task 2: Create a string to sign for Signature Version 4

The string to sign includes meta information about your request and about the canonical request that
you created in Task 1: Create a canonical request for Signature Version 4 (p. 566). You will use the string
to sign and a derived signing key that you create later as inputs to calculate the request signature in Task
3: Calculate the signature for AWS Signature Version 4 (p. 574).
To create the string to sign, concatenate the algorithm, date and time, credential scope, and digest of the
canonical request, as shown in the following pseudocode:
Structure of string to sign
StringToSign =
Algorithm + \n +
RequestDateTime + \n +
CredentialScope + \n +
HashedCanonicalRequest
The following example shows how to construct the string to sign with the same request from Task 1:
Create A Canonical Request (p. 566).
Example HTTPS request

X-Amz-Date: 20150830T123600Z
To create the string to sign
1. Start with the algorithm designation, followed by a newline character. This value is the hashing
algorithm that you use to calculate the digests in the canonical request. For SHA256, AWS4-HMAC-
SHA256 is the algorithm.
AWS4-HMAC-SHA256\n
2. Append the request date value, followed by a newline character. The date is specified with ISO8601
basic format in the x-amz-date header in the format YYYYMMDD'T'HHMMSS'Z'. This value must
match the value you used in any previous steps.
20150830T123600Z\n
3. Append the credential scope value, followed by a newline character. This value is a string that
includes the date, the Region you are targeting, the service you are requesting, and a termination
string ("aws4_request") in lowercase characters. The Region and service name strings must be
UTF-8 encoded.
20150830/us-east-1/iam/aws4_request\n
• The date must be in the YYYYMMDD format. Note that the date does not include a time value.
• Verify that the Region you specify is the Region that you are sending the request to. See AWS
service endpoints (p. 536).
4. Append the hash of the canonical request that you created in Task 1: Create a canonical request for
Signature Version 4 (p. 566). This value is not followed by a newline character. The hashed canonical
request must be lowercase base-16 encoded, as defined by Section 8 of RFC 4648.
Version 1.0

The following string to sign is a request to IAM on August 30, 2015.
Example string to sign

573
Task 3: Calculate the signature for AWS Signature Version 4

Before you calculate a signature, you derive a signing key from your AWS secret access key. Because the
derived signing key is specific to the date, service, and Region, it offers a greater degree of protection.
You don't just use your secret access key to sign the request. You then use the signing key and the string
to sign that you created in Task 2: Create a string to sign for Signature Version 4 (p. 572) as the inputs to
a keyed hash function. The hex-encoded result from the keyed hash function is the signature.
Signature Version 4 does not require that you use a particular character encoding to encode the string to
sign. However, some AWS services might require a specific encoding. For more information, consult the
documentation for that service.
To calculate a signature
1. Derive your signing key. To do this, use your secret access key to create a series of hash-based
message authentication codes (HMACs). This is shown in the following pseudocode, where
HMAC(key, data) represents an HMAC-SHA256 function that returns output in binary format. The
result of each hash function becomes input for the next one.
Pseudocode for deriving a signing key
kSecret = your secret access key

kDate = HMAC("AWS4" + kSecret, Date)
kRegion = HMAC(kDate, Region)
kService = HMAC(kRegion, Service)
kSigning = HMAC(kService, "aws4_request")
Note that the date used in the hashing process is in the format YYYYMMDD (for example, 20150830),
and does not include the time.
Make sure you specify the HMAC parameters in the correct order for the programming language you
are using. This example shows the key as the first parameter and the data (message) as the second
parameter, but the function that you use might specify the key and data in a different order.
Use the digest (binary format) for the key derivation. Most languages have functions to compute
either a binary format hash, commonly called a digest, or a hex-encoded hash, called a hexdigest.
The key derivation requires that you use a binary-formatted digest.
The following example show the inputs to derive a signing key and the resulting output, where
kSecret = wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG+bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY.
The example uses the same parameters from the request in Task 1 and Task 2 (a request to IAM in
the us-east-1 Region on August 30, 2015).
Example inputs
HMAC(HMAC(HMAC(HMAC("AWS4" + kSecret,"20150830"),"us-east-1"),"iam"),"aws4_request")
The following example shows the derived signing key that results from this sequence of HMAC hash
operations. This shows the hexadecimal representation of each byte in the binary signing key.
Example signing key
c4afb1cc5771d871763a393e44b703571b55cc28424d1a5e86da6ed3c154a4b9
For more information about how to derive a signing key in different programming languages, see
Examples of how to derive a signing key for Signature
Version 1.0 Version 4 (p. 579).
574
2. Calculate the signature. To do this, use the signing key that you derived and the string to sign as
inputs to the keyed hash function. After you calculate the signature, convert the binary value to a
hexadecimal representation.
The following pseudocode shows how to calculate the signature.
signature = HexEncode(HMAC(derived signing key, string to sign))
Note
Make sure you specify the HMAC parameters in the correct order for the programming
language you are using. This example shows the key as the first parameter and the data
(message) as the second parameter, but the function that you use might specify the key and
data in a different order.
The following example shows the resulting signature if you use the same signing key and the string
to sign from Task 2:
Example signature
5d672d79c15b13162d9279b0855cfba6789a8edb4c82c400e06b5924a6f2b5d7
Version 1.0
575
Task 4: Add the signature to the HTTP request

After you calculate the signature, add it to the request. You can add the signature to a request in one of
two ways:
• An HTTP header named Authorization

• The query string
You cannot pass signing information in both the Authorization header and the query string.
Note
You can use temporary security credentials provided by the AWS Security Token Service (AWS
STS) to sign a request. The process is the same as using long-term credentials, but requires
an additional HTTP header or query string parameter for the security token. The name of
the header or query string parameter is X-Amz-Security-Token, and the value is the
session token (the string you received from AWS STS when you obtained temporary security
credentials).
When you add the X-Amz-Security-Token parameter to the query string, some services
require that you include this parameter in the canonical (signed) request. For other services,
you add this parameter at the end, after you calculate the signature. For details, see the API
reference documentation for that service.
Adding signing information to the authorization header

You can include signing information by adding it to an HTTP header named Authorization. The
contents of the header are created after you calculate the signature as described in the preceding steps,
so the Authorization header is not included in the list of signed headers. Although the header is
named Authorization, the signing information is actually used for authentication.
The following pseudocode shows the construction of the Authorization header.
Authorization: algorithm Credential=access key ID/credential scope,

SignedHeaders=SignedHeaders, Signature=signature
The following example shows a finished Authorization header.
Note that in the actual request, the authorization header would appear as a continuous line of text. The
version below has been formatted for readability.
Authorization: AWS4-HMAC-SHA256
Credential=AKIDEXAMPLE/20150830/us-east-1/iam/aws4_request,
SignedHeaders=content-type;host;x-amz-date,
Signature=5d672d79c15b13162d9279b0855cfba6789a8edb4c82c400e06b5924a6f2b5d7
Note the following:
• There is no comma between the algorithm and Credential. However, the SignedHeaders and
Signature are separated from the preceding values with a comma.
• The Credential value starts with the access key ID, which is followed by a forward slash (/), which
is followed by the credential scope that you calculated in Task 2: Create a string to sign for Signature
Version 4 (p. 572). The secret access key is used to derive the signing key for the signature, but is not
included in the signing information sent in the request.
Adding signing information to the Query string

You can make requests and pass all request values in the query string, including signing information. This
is sometimes referred to as a presigned URL, because it produces a single URL with everything required
Version 1.0
576
in order to make a successful call to AWS. It's commonly used in Amazon S3. For more information, see
Authenticating Requests by Using Query Parameters (AWS Signature Version 4) in the Amazon Simple
Storage Service API Reference.
Important
If you make a request in which all parameters are included in the query string, the resulting URL
represents an AWS action that is already authenticated. Therefore, treat the resulting URL with
as much caution as you would treat your actual credentials. We recommend you specify a short
expiration time for the request with the X-Amz-Expires parameter.
When you use this approach, all the query string values (except the signature) are included in the
canonical query string that is part of the canonical query that you construct in the first part of the
signing process (p. 566).
The following pseudocode shows the construction of a query string that contains all request parameters.
querystring = Action=action
querystring += &X-Amz-Algorithm=algorithm
querystring += &X-Amz-Credential= urlencode(access_key_ID + '/' + credential_scope)
querystring += &X-Amz-Date=date
querystring += &X-Amz-Expires=timeout interval
querystring += &X-Amz-SignedHeaders=signed_headers
After the signature is calculated (which uses the other query string values as part of the calculation), you
add the signature to the query string as the X-Amz-Signature parameter:
querystring += &X-Amz-Signature=signature
The following example shows what a request might look like when all the request parameters and the
signing information are included in query string parameters.
Note that in the actual request, the authorization header would appear as a continuous line of text. The
version below has been formatted for readability.
https://iam.amazonaws.com?Action=ListUsers&Version=2010-05-08
&X-Amz-Credential=AKIDEXAMPLE%2F20150830%2Fus-east-1%2Fiam%2Faws4_request
&X-Amz-Date=20150830T123600Z
&X-Amz-Expires=60
&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=content-type%3Bhost
&X-Amz-Signature=37ac2f4fde00b0ac9bd9eadeb459b1bbee224158d66e7ae5fcadb70b2d181d02
Note the following:
• For the signature calculation, query string parameters must be sorted in code point order from low to
high, and their values must be URI-encoded. See the step about creating a canonical query string in
Task 1: Create a canonical request for Signature Version 4 (p. 566).
• Set the timeout interval (X-Amz-Expires) to the minimal viable time for the operation you're
requesting.
Version 1.0
577
Handling dates in Signature Version 4

The date that you use as part of your credential scope must match the date of your request. You can
include the date as part of your request in several ways. You can use a date header, an x-amz-date
header or include x-amz-date as a query parameter. For example requests, see Examples of the
complete Signature Version 4 signing process (Python) (p. 582).
The time stamp must be in UTC and in the following ISO 8601 format: YYYYMMDD'T'HHMMSS'Z'. For
example, 20150830T123600Z is a valid time stamp. Do not include milliseconds in the time stamp.
AWS first checks the x-amz-date header or parameter for a time stamp. If AWS can't find a value for x-
amz-date, it looks for the date header. AWS then checks the credential scope for an eight-digit string
representing the year (YYYY), month (MM), and day (DD) of the request. For example, if the x-amz-date
header value is 20111015T080000Z and the date component of the credential scope is 20111015, AWS
allows the authentication process to proceed.
If the dates don't match, AWS rejects the request, even if the time stamp is only seconds away from the
date in the credential scope. For example, AWS will reject a request that has an x-amz-date header
value of 20151014T235959Z and a credential scope that has the date 20151015.

Examples of how to derive a signing key for Signature Version 4

This page shows examples in several programming languages for how to derive a signing key for
Signature Version 4. The examples on this page show only how to derive a signing key, which is just
one part of signing AWS requests. For examples that show the complete process, see Examples of the
complete Signature Version 4 signing process (Python) (p. 582).
Important
If you are using one of the AWS SDKs (including the SDK for Java, .NET, Python, Ruby, or
JavaScript), you do not have to manually perform the steps of deriving a signing key and adding
authentication information to a request. The SDKs perform this work for you. You need to
manually sign requests only if you are directly making HTTP or HTTPS requests.

end
Deriving a signing key using JavaScript (Node.js)

The following example uses the crypto-js library. For more information, see https://www.npmjs.com/
package/crypto-js and https://code.google.com/archive/p/crypto-js/.
var crypto = require("crypto-js");
function getSignatureKey(key, dateStamp, regionName, serviceName) {

var kDate = crypto.HmacSHA256(dateStamp, "AWS4" + key);
var kRegion = crypto.HmacSHA256(regionName, kDate);
var kService = crypto.HmacSHA256(serviceName, kRegion);
var kSigning = crypto.HmacSHA256("aws4_request", kService);
return kSigning;
}
Deriving a signing key using other languages

If you need to implement this logic in a different programming language, we recommend testing the
intermediary steps of the key derivation algorithm against the values in this section. The following
example in Ruby prints the results using the hexEncode function after each step in the algorithm.
def hexEncode bindata

result=""
data=bindata.unpack("C*")
data.each {|b| result+= "%02x" % b}
result
end
Given the following test input:
Version 1.0
580
key = 'wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG+bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY'
dateStamp = '20120215'
regionName = 'us-east-1'
serviceName = 'iam'
Your program should generate the following values for the values in getSignatureKey. Note that
these are hex-encoded representations of the binary data; the key itself and the intermediate values
should be in binary format.
kSecret =
'41575334774a616c725855746e46454d492f4b374d44454e472b62507852666943594558414d504c454b4559'
kDate = '969fbb94feb542b71ede6f87fe4d5fa29c789342b0f407474670f0c2489e0a0d'
kRegion = '69daa0209cd9c5ff5c8ced464a696fd4252e981430b10e3d3fd8e2f197d7a70c'
kService = 'f72cfd46f26bc4643f06a11eabb6c0ba18780c19a8da0c31ace671265e3c87fa'
kSigning = 'f4780e2d9f65fa895f9c67b32ce1baf0b0d8a43505a000a1a9e090d414db404d'
Common coding errors

To simplify your task, avoid the following common coding errors.
Tip
Examine the HTTP request that you're sending to AWS with a tool that shows you what your raw
HTTP requests look like. This can help you spot issues that aren't evident from your code.
• Don't include an extra newline character, or forget one where it's required.
• Don't format the date incorrectly in the credential scope, such as using a time stamp instead of
YYYYMMDD format.
• Make sure the headers in the canonical headers and the signed headers are the same.
• Don't inadvertently swap the key and the data (message) when calculating intermediary keys. The
result of the previous step's computation is the key, not the data. Check the documentation for your
cryptographic primitives carefully to ensure that you place the parameters in the proper order.
• Don't forget to add the string "AWS4" in front of the key for the first step. If you implement the key
derivation using a for loop or iterator, don't forget to special-case the first iteration so that it includes
the "AWS4" string.
For more information about possible errors, see Troubleshooting AWS Signature Version 4
errors (p. 590).

Examples of the complete Signature Version 4 signing process

(Python)
This section shows example programs written in Python that illustrate how to work with Signature
Version 4 in AWS. We deliberately wrote these example programs to be simple (to use few Python-
specific features) to make it easier to understand the overall process of signing AWS requests.
Note
If you are using one of the AWS SDKs (including the SDK for C++, SDK for Go, SDK for Java,
AWS SDK for JavaScript, AWS SDK for .NET, SDK for PHP, SDK for Python (Boto3), or SDK for
Ruby), you do not have to manually perform the steps of deriving a signing key and adding
authentication information to a request. The SDKs perform this work for you. You need to
manually sign requests only if you are directly making HTTP or HTTPS requests.
In order to work with these example programs, you need the following:
• Python 2.x installed on your computer, which you can get from the Python site. These programs were
tested using Python 2.7 and 3.6.
• The Python requests library, which is used in the example script to make web requests. A convenient
way to install Python packages is to use pip, which gets packages from the Python package index site.
You can then install requests by running pip install requests at the command line.
• An access key (access key ID and secret access key) in environment variables named
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY. Alternatively, you can keep these values in a
credentials file and read them from that file. As a best practice, we recommend that you do not embed
credentials in code. For more information, see Best Practices for Managing AWS Access Keys in the
Amazon Web Services General Reference.
The following examples use UTF-8 to encode the canonical request and string to sign, but Signature
Version 4 does not require that you use a particular character encoding. However, some AWS services
might require a specific encoding. For more information, consult the documentation for that service.
Examples
• Using GET with an authorization header (Python) (p. 582)
• Using POST (Python) (p. 585)
• Using GET with authentication information in the Query string (Python) (p. 587)
Using GET with an authorization header (Python)

The following example shows how to make a request using the Amazon EC2 query API without SDK for
Python (Boto3). The request makes a GET request and passes authentication information to AWS using
the Authorization header.

Troubleshooting AWS Signature Version 4 errors

When you develop code that implements Signature Version 4, you might receive errors from AWS
products that you test against. The errors typically come from an error in the canonicalization of the
request, the incorrect derivation or use of the signing key, or a validation failure of signature-specific
parameters sent along with the request.
Errors
• Troubleshooting canonicalization errors (p. 590)
• Troubleshooting credential scope errors (p. 591)
• Troubleshooting key signing errors (p. 592)
Troubleshooting canonicalization errors

Consider the following request:
https://iam.amazonaws.com/?MaxItems=100
&Action=ListGroupsForUser
&UserName=Test
&Version=2010-05-08
&X-Amz-Date=20120223T063000Z
&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE/20120223/us-east-1/iam/aws4_request
&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host
&X-Amz-Signature=<calculated value>
If you incorrectly calculate the canonical request or the string to sign, the signature verification step
performed by the service fails. The following example is a typical error response, which includes the
canonical string and the string to sign as computed by the service. You can troubleshoot your calculation
error by comparing the returned strings with the canonical string and your calculated string to sign.
<ErrorResponse xmlns="https://iam.amazonaws.com/doc/2010-05-08/">
<Error>
<Type>Sender</Type>
<Code>SignatureDoesNotMatch</Code>
<Message>The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided.
Check your AWS Secret Access Key and signing method. Consult the service documentation for
details.
The canonical string for this request should have been 'GET /

Troubleshooting credential scope errors

AWS products validate credentials for proper scope; the credential parameter must specify the correct
service, Region, and date. For example, the following credential references the Amazon RDS service:
Credential=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE/20120224/us-east-1/rds/aws4_request
If you use the same credentials to submit a request to IAM, you'll receive the following error response:

</Error>
<RequestId>aa0da9de-5f2b-11e1-a2c0-c1dc98b6c575</RequestId>
The credential must also specify the correct Region. For example, the following credential for an IAM
request incorrectly specifies the US West (N. California) Region.
Credential=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE/20120224/us-west-1/iam/aws4_request
If you use the credential to submit a request to IAM, which accepts only the us-east-1 Region
specification, you'll receive the following response:

</ErrorResponse>
You'll receive the same type of invalid Region response from AWS products that are available in multiple
Regions if you submit requests to a Region that differs from the Region specified in your credential
scope.
The credential must also specify the correct Region for the service and action in your request.
The date that you use as part of the credential must match the date value in the x-amz-date header.
For example, the following x-amz-date header value does not match the date value used in the
Credential parameter that follows it.
x-amz-date:"20120224T213559Z"
Credential=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE/20120225/us-east-1/iam/aws4_request
If you use this pairing of x-amz-date header and credential, you'll receive the following error response:
<Error>
<Type>Sender</Type>
<Message>Date in Credential scope does not match YYYYMMDD from ISO-8601 version of date

Troubleshooting key signing errors

Errors that are caused by an incorrect derivation of the signing key or improper use of cryptography are
more difficult to troubleshoot. The error response will tell you that the signature does not match. If you
verified that the canonical string and the string to sign are correct, the cause of the signature mismatch
is most likely one of the two following issues:
• The secret access key does not match the access key ID that you specified in the Credential
parameter.
• There is a problem with your key derivation code.
To check whether the secret key matches the access key ID, you can use your secret key and access key ID
with a known working implementation. One way is to use one of the AWS SDKs to write a program that
makes a simple request to AWS using the access key ID and secret access key that you want to use.
To check whether your key derivation code is correct, you can compare it to our example derivation code.
For more information, see Examples of how to derive a signing key for Signature Version 4 (p. 579).

Components of a query request for Signature Version 2

AWS requires that each HTTP or HTTPS Query request formatted for Signature Version 2 contains the
following:
Version 1.0
593
Endpoint
Also known as the host part of an HTTP request. This is the DNS name of the computer where you
send the Query request. This is different for each AWS Region. For the list of endpoints for each
service, see AWS service endpoints (p. 536).
Action
The action you want a web service to perform. This value determines the parameters used in the
request.
AWSAccessKeyId
A value distributed by AWS when you sign up for an AWS account.

SignatureMethod
The hash-based protocol used to calculate the signature. This can be either HMAC-SHA1 or HMAC-
SHA256 for Signature Version 2.
SignatureVersion
The version of the AWS signature protocol.

Timestamp
The time at which you make the request. Include this in the Query request to help prevent third
parties from intercepting your request.
Required and optional parameters
Each action has a set of required and optional parameters that define the API call.
Signature
The calculated value that ensures the signature is valid and has not been tampered.
The following is an example Amazon EMR Query request formatted as an HTTPS GET request.
• The endpoint, elasticmapreduce.amazonaws.com, is the default endpoint and maps to the Region
us-east-1.
• The action is DescribeJobFlows, which requests information about one or more job flows.
Note
In the actual Query request, there are no spaces or newline characters. The request is a
continuous line of text. The version below is formatted for human readability.
https://elasticmapreduce.amazonaws.com?
&AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
&Action=DescribeJobFlows
&SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256
&SignatureVersion=2
&Timestamp=2011-10-03T15%3A19%3A30
&Version=2009-03-31
&Signature=calculated value
How to generate a signature for a Query request

Web service requests are sent across the Internet and are vulnerable to tampering. To check that the
request has not been altered, AWS calculates the signature to determine if any of the parameters or
parameter values were changed en route. AWS requires a signature as part of every request.
Version 1.0
594
Be sure to URI encode the request. For example, blank spaces in your request should be encoded as
%20. Although an unencoded space is normally allowed by the HTTP protocol specification, unencoded
characters create an invalid signature in your Query request. Do not encode spaces as a plus sign (+) as
this will cause errors.
The following topics describe the steps needed to calculate a signature using AWS Signature Version 2.
Task 1: Format the Query request

Before you can sign the Query request, format the request in a standardized (canonical) format. This is
needed because the different ways to format a Query request will result in different HMAC signatures.
Format the request in a canonical format before signing. This ensures your application and AWS will
calculate the same signature for a request.
To create the string to sign, you concatenate the Query request components. The following example
generates the string to sign for the following call to the Amazon EMR API.
Action=DescribeJobFlows
&Version=2009-03-31
&AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
&SignatureVersion=2
&Timestamp=2011-10-03T15:19:30
Note
In the preceding request, the last four parameters (AWSAccessKeyID through Timestamp) are
called authentication parameters. They're required in every Signature Version 2 request. AWS
uses them to identify who is sending the request and whether to grant the requested access.
To create the string to sign
1. Start with the request method (either GET or POST), followed by a newline character. For human
readability, the newline character is represented as \n.
GET\n
2. Add the HTTP host header (endpoint) in lowercase, followed by a newline character. The port
information is omitted if it is the standard port for the protocol (port 80 for HTTP and port 443 for
HTTPS), but included if it is a nonstandard port.
elasticmapreduce.amazonaws.com\n
3. Add the URL-encoded version of each path segment of the URI, which is everything between the
HTTP host header to the question mark character (?) that begins the query string parameters,
followed by a newline character. Don't encode the forward slash (/) that delimits each path
segment.
In this example, if the absolute path is empty, use a forward slash (/).
/\n
4. a. Add the query string components, as UTF-8 characters which are URL encoded (hexadecimal
characters must be uppercase). You do not encode the initial question mark character (?) in the
request. For more information, see RFC 3986.
b. Sort the query string components by byte order. Byte ordering is case sensitive. AWS sorts these
components based on the raw bytes.
Version 1.0
595
For example, this is the original order for the query string components.
Version=2009-03-31
AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
SignatureVersion=2
SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256
Timestamp=2011-10-03T15%3A19%3A30
The query string components would be reorganized as the following:
AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256
SignatureVersion=2
Timestamp=2011-10-03T15%3A19%3A30
Version=2009-03-31
c. Separate parameter names from their values with the equal sign character (=), even if the value
is empty. Separate parameter and value pairs with the ampersand character (&). Concatenate
the parameters and their values to make one long string with no spaces. Spaces within a
parameter value are allowed, but must be URL encoded as %20. In the concatenated string,
period characters (.) are not escaped. RFC 3986 considers the period character an unreserved
character, so it is not URL encoded.
Note
RFC 3986 does not specify what happens with ASCII control characters, extended
UTF-8 characters, and other characters reserved by RFC 1738. Since any values may be
passed into a string value, these other characters should be percent encoded as %XY
where X and Y are uppercase hex characters. Extended UTF-8 characters take the form
%XY%ZA... (this handles multibytes).
The following example shows the query string components, with the parameters concatenated with
the ampersand character (&), and sorted by byte order.
AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE&Action=DescribeJobFlows&SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256&SignatureVer
5. To construct the finished canonical request, combine all the components from each step. As shown,
each component ends with a newline character.
GET\n
/\n
AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE&Action=DescribeJobFlows&SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256&SignatureVer
Task 2: Calculate the signature

After you've created the canonical string as described in Task 1: Format the Query request (p. 595),
calculate the signature by creating a hash-based message authentication code (HMAC) that uses either
the HMAC-SHA1 or HMAC-SHA256 protocols. The HMAC-SHA256 is preferred.
In this example, the signature is calculated with the following canonical string and secret key as inputs to
a keyed hash function:
• Canonical query string:
Version 1.0
596
GET\n
/\n
AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE&Action=DescribeJobFlows&SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256&SignatureVersi
• Sample secret key:
wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY
The resulting signature must be base-64 encoded.
i91nKc4PWAt0JJIdXwz9HxZCJDdiy6cf%2FMj6vPxyYIs%3D
Add the resulting value to the query request as a Signature parameter. When you add this parameter
to the request, you must URI encode it just like any other parameter. You can use the signed request in
an HTTP or HTTPS call.
AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE&Action=DescribeJobFlows&SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256&SignatureVersion
%2FMj6vPxyYIs%3D
Note
You can use temporary security credentials provided by AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS)
to sign a request. The process is the same as using long-term credentials, but requests require
an additional parameter for the security token.
The following request uses a temporary access key ID and the SecurityToken parameter.
Example Example request with temporary security credentials
https://sdb.amazonaws.com/
?Action=GetAttributes
&AWSAccessKeyId=access-key-from-AWS Security Token Service
&DomainName=MyDomain
&ItemName=MyItem
&SignatureVersion=2
&Timestamp=2010-01-25T15%3A03%3A07-07%3A00
&Version=2009-04-15
&Signature=signature-calculated-using-the-temporary-access-key
&SecurityToken=session-token
For more information, see the following resources:
• The Amazon EMR Developer Guide has information about Amazon EMR API calls.
• The API documentation for each service has information about requirements and specific parameters
for an action.
• The AWS SDKs offer functions to generate Query request signatures. To see an example using the AWS
SDK for Java, see Using the Java SDK to sign a Query request (p. 598).

Troubleshooting request signatures

This section describes some error codes you might see when you are initially developing code to generate
the signature to sign Query requests.
SignatureDoesNotMatch signing error in a web service
The following error response is returned when a web service attempts to validate the request signature
by recalculating the signature value and generates a value that does not match the signature you
appended to the request. This can occur because the request was altered between the time you sent it
and the time it reached a web service endpoint (which is what the signature is designed to detect) or
because the signature was calculated improperly. A common cause of the following error message is not
properly creating the string to sign, such as forgetting to URL-encode characters such as the colon (:) and
the forward slash (/) in Amazon S3 bucket names.
<ErrorResponse xmlns="http://elasticmapreduce.amazonaws.com/doc/2009-03-31">

Using the Java SDK to sign a Query request

The following example uses the amazon.webservices.common package of the AWS SDK for Java to
generate an AWS Signature Version 2 Query request signature. To do so, it creates an RFC 2104-
compliant HMAC signature. For more information about HMAC, see HMAC: Keyed-Hashing for Message
Authentication.
Note
Java is used as an example implementation. You can use the programming language of your
choice to implement the HMAC algorithm to sign Query requests.

AWS SDK features for Amazon S3 client-side encryption
AWS Encryption SDK is not tied to Amazon S3 and can be used to encrypt or decrypt data to be
stored anywhere.
The AWS Encryption SDK and the Amazon S3 encryption clients are not compatible because
they produce ciphertexts with different data formats. For more information about the AWS
Encryption SDK, see the AWS Encryption SDK Developer Guide.
AWS SDK features for Amazon S3 client-side

encryption
To use the Amazon S3 client-side encryption feature to encrypt data before uploading to Amazon S3,
you must provide a master key to the Amazon S3 encryption client. You can provide a client-side master
key or use the AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS)–managed master keys feature. The AWS KMS–
managed master keys feature provides an easy way to create and manage keys that are used to encrypt
data. For more information about these features, choose the links provided in the Feature column.
For details about how to use the features for a particular SDK, see the SDK's developer guide.
In the following table, each column indicates whether the AWS Command Line Interface or SDK for a
specific language supports the features used in client-side encryption.

content delivery network A web service that speeds up distribution of your static and dynamic web content
(CDN) —such as .html, .css, .js, media files, and image files—to your users by using
a worldwide network of data centers. When a user requests your content, the
request is routed to the data center that provides the lowest latency (time delay).
If the content is already in the location with the lowest latency, the CDN delivers
it immediately. If not, the CDN retrieves it from an origin that you specify (for
example, a web server or an Amazon S3 bucket). With some CDNs, you can help
secure your content by configuring an HTTPS connection between users and data
centers, and between data centers and your origin. Amazon CloudFront is an
example of a CDN.

core node An EC2 instance (p. 629) that runs Hadoop (p. 634) map and reduce tasks and
stores data using the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). Core nodes are
managed by the master node (p. 640), which assigns Hadoop tasks to nodes and
monitors their status. The EC2 instances you assign as core nodes are capacity
that must be allotted for the entire job flow run. Because core nodes store data,
you can't remove them from a job flow. However, you can add more core nodes to
a running job flow.
Core nodes run both the DataNodes and TaskTracker Hadoop daemons.
corpus Amazon CloudSearch (p. 606): A collection of data that you want to search.
coverage Amazon Personalize (p. 610): An evaluation metric that tells you the proportion
of unique items that Amazon Personalize might recommend using your model
out of the total number of unique items in Interactions and Items datasets. To
make sure Amazon Personalize recommends more of your items, use a model
with a higher coverage score. Recipes that feature item exploration, such as user-
personalization, have higher coverage than those that don’t, such as popularity-
count.
See Also metrics, Items dataset, Interactions dataset, item exploration, user-
personalization recipe, popularity-count recipe.
credential helper AWS CodeCommit (p. 614): A program that stores credentials for repositories
and supplies them to Git when making connections to those repositories. The
AWS CLI (p. 615) includes a credential helper that you can use with Git when

CodeCommit (p. 614) and AWS CodeDeploy (p. 614) you can configure cross-
account access so that a user in AWS account A can access an CodeCommit
repository created by account B. Or a pipeline in AWS CodePipeline (p. 614)
created by account A can use CodeDeploy resources created by account B. In
IAM (p. 616) you use a role (p. 650) to delegate (p. 627) temporary access to
a user (p. 659) in one account to resources in another.

eventual consistency The method through which AWS products achieve high availability, which involves
replicating data across multiple servers in Amazon's data centers. When data is
written or updated and Success is returned, all copies of the data are updated.
However, it takes time for the data to propagate to all storage locations. The data
will eventually be consistent, but an immediate read might not show the change.
Consistency is usually reached within seconds.
See Also data consistency, eventually consistent read, strongly consistent read.
eventually consistent read A read process that returns data from only one Region and might not show the
most recent write information. However, if you repeat your read request after a
short time, the response should eventually return the latest data.
See Also data consistency, eventual consistency, strongly consistent read.
eviction The deletion by CloudFront (p. 606) of an object from an edge

location (p. 629) before its expiration time. If an object in an edge location
isn't frequently requested, CloudFront might evict the object (remove the object
before its expiration date) to make room for objects that are more popular.
exbibyte (EiB) A contraction of exa binary byte, an exbibyte is 2^60 or

1,152,921,504,606,846,976 bytes. An exabyte (EB) is 10^18 or

to user requests with an object. If you don't use headers or CloudFront
distribution (p. 628) settings to specify how long you want objects to stay in
an edge location (p. 629), the objects expire after 24 hours. The next time a
user requests an object that has expired, CloudFront forwards the request to the
origin (p. 644).

milliseconds before attempting the first retry, up to 1600 milliseconds before the
second, up to 6400 milliseconds (6.4 seconds) before the third, and so on.
expression Amazon CloudSearch (p. 606): A numeric expression that you can use to control
how search hits are sorted. You can construct Amazon CloudSearch expressions
using numeric fields, other rank expressions, a document's default relevance
score, and standard numeric operators and functions. When you use the sort
option to specify an expression in a search request, the expression is evaluated for
each search hit and the hits are listed according to their expression values.
extract, transform, and load A process that is used to integrate data from multiple sources. Data is collected
(ETL) from sources (extract), converted to an appropriate format (transform), and
written to a target data store (load) for purposes of analysis and querying.

when they interacted with a particular item by clicking it, watching it, purchasing
it, and so on. Amazon Personalize uses impressions data to calculate the relevance
of new items for a user based on how frequently users have selected or ignored
the same item.
See Also explicit impressions, implicit impressions.
in-place deployment CodeDeploy: A deployment method in which the application on each instance in
the deployment group is stopped, the latest application revision is installed, and

to properties not available until runtime. These functions follow the format
Fn::Attribute, such as Fn::GetAtt. Arguments for intrinsic functions can be
parameters, pseudo parameters, or the output of other intrinsic functions.
IP address A numerical address (for example, 192.0.2.44) that networked devices use
to communicate with one another using the Internet Protocol (IP). All EC2
instance (p. 629)s are assigned two IP addresses at launch, which are directly
mapped to each other through network address translation (NAT (p. 642)):
a private IP address (following RFC 1918) and a public IP address. Instances
launched in a VPC (p. 611) are assigned only a private IP address. Instances
launched in your default VPC are assigned both a private IP address and a public
IP address.
IP match condition AWS WAF (p. 620): An attribute that specifies the IP addresses or IP
address ranges that web requests originate from. Based on the specified IP
Version 1.0
636

different item recommendations, including recommendations of new items with
no or very little interaction data, and learn how users respond. You configure item
exploration at the campaign level for solution versions created with the user-
personalization recipe.
See Also recommendations, campaign, solution version, user-personalization
recipe.
item-to-item similarities Amazon Personalize (p. 610): A RELATED_ITEMS recipe that uses the data from
(SIMS) recipe an Interactions dataset to make recommendations for items that are similar to
a specified item. The SIMS recipe calculates similarity based on the way users
interact with items instead of matching item metadata, such as price or age.
See Also recipe, RELATED_ITEMS recipes, Interactions dataset.

key A credential that identifies an AWS account (p. 605) or user (p. 659) to AWS
(such as the AWS secret access key (p. 652)).
Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) (p. 611), Amazon EMR (p. 608):
The unique identifier for an object in a bucket (p. 621). Every object in a bucket
has exactly one key. Because a bucket and key together uniquely identify each
object, you can think of Amazon S3 as a basic data map between the bucket + key,
and the object itself. You can uniquely address every object in Amazon S3 through
the combination of the web service endpoint, bucket name, and key, as in this
example: http://doc.s3.amazonaws.com/2006-03-01/AmazonS3.wsdl,
where doc is the name of the bucket, and 2006-03-01/AmazonS3.wsdl is the
key.
AWS Import/Export (p. 616): The name of an object in Amazon S3. It is a

sequence of Unicode characters whose UTF-8 encoding cannot exceed 1024
bytes. If a key, for example, logPrefix + import-log-JOBID, is longer than 1024

assigning weight to recommendations based on their position in a ranked list,
where each recommendation is discounted (given a lower weight) by a factor
dependent on its position. The normalized discounted cumulative gain at K
assumes that recommendations that are lower on a list are less relevant than
recommendations higher on the list.
NoSQL Nonrelational database systems that are highly available, scalable, and optimized
for high performance. Instead of the relational model, NoSQL databases (like
Amazon DynamoDB (p. 607)) use alternate models for data management, such

pagination The process of responding to an API request by returning a large list of records in
small separate parts. Pagination can occur in the following situations:
• The client sets the maximum number of returned records to a value below the
total number of records.
• The service has a default maximum number of returned records that is lower
than the total number of records.
When an API response is paginated, the service sends a subset of the large list
of records and a pagination token that indicates that more records are available.
The client includes this pagination token in a subsequent API request, and the
service responds with the next subset of records. This continues until the service
responds with a subset of records and no pagination token, indicating that all
records have been sent.
pagination token A marker that indicates that an API response contains a subset of a larger list of
records. The client can return this marker in a subsequent API request to retrieve
the next subset of records until the service responds with a subset of records and
no pagination token, indicating that all records have been sent.

to do B to C." For example, Jane (A) has permission to read messages (B) from
John's Amazon SQS (p. 611) queue (C). Whenever Jane sends a request to
Amazon SQS to use John's queue, the service checks to see if she has permission.
It further checks to see if the request satisfies the conditions John set forth in the
permission.

reputation 1. An Amazon SES (p. 611) metric, based on factors that might include
bounce (p. 621)s, complaint (p. 623)s, and other metrics, regarding whether or
not a customer is sending high-quality email.
2. A measure of confidence, as judged by an internet service provider

(ISP) (p. 636) or other entity that an IP address that they are receiving email
from is not the source of spam (p. 654).
requester The person (or application) that sends a request to AWS to perform a specific
action. When AWS receives a request, it first evaluates the requester's permissions
to determine whether the requester is allowed to perform the request action (if
applicable, for the requested resource (p. 650)).
Requester Pays An Amazon S3 (p. 611) feature that allows a bucket owner (p. 621) to specify
that anyone who requests access to objects in a particular bucket (p. 621) must
pay the data transfer and request costs.
reservation A collection of EC2 instance (p. 629)s started as part of the same launch
request. Not to be confused with a Reserved Instance (p. 649).
Reserved Instance A pricing option for EC2 instance (p. 629)s that discounts the on-
demand (p. 643) usage charge for instances that meet the specified parameters.
Customers pay for the entire term of the instance, regardless of how they use it.
Reserved Instance An online exchange that matches sellers who have reserved capacity that they
Marketplace no longer need with buyers who are looking to purchase additional capacity.
Reserved Instance (p. 649)s that you purchase from third-party sellers have less
Version 1.0
649
than a full standard term remaining and can be sold at different upfront prices.
The usage or reoccurring fees remain the same as the fees set when the Reserved
Instances were originally purchased. Full standard terms for Reserved Instances
available from AWS run for one year or three years.
resource An entity that users can work with in AWS, such as an EC2 instance (p. 629), an
Amazon DynamoDB (p. 607) table, an Amazon S3 (p. 611) bucket (p. 621), an

resource property A value required when including an AWS resource (p. 650) in an AWS
CloudFormation (p. 614) stack (p. 655). Each resource may have one or more
properties associated with it. For example, an AWS::EC2::Instance resource
may have a UserData property. In an AWS CloudFormation template, resources
must declare a properties section, even if the resource has no properties.
resource record Also called resource record set. The fundamental information elements in the
Domain Name System (DNS).
See Also Domain Name System in Wikipedia.
REST Representational state transfer. A simple stateless architecture that generally runs
over HTTPS/TLS. REST emphasizes that resources have unique and hierarchical
identifiers (URIs), are represented by common media types (HTML, XML,
JSON (p. 637), and so on), and that operations on the resources are either
predefined or discoverable within the media type. In practice, this generally
results in a limited number of operations.
See Also Query, WSDL, SOAP.
RESTful web service Also known as RESTful API. A web service that follows REST (p. 650)
architectural constraints. The API operations must use HTTP methods explicitly;
expose hierarchical URIs; and transfer either XML, JSON (p. 637), or both.
return enabled Amazon CloudSearch (p. 606): An index field option that enables the field's
values to be returned in the search results.

account (p. 605).
rollback A return to a previous state that follows the failure to create an object, such as
AWS CloudFormation (p. 614) stack (p. 655). All resource (p. 650)s associated
with the failure are deleted during the rollback. For AWS CloudFormation, you can
override this behavior using the --disable-rollback option on the command
line.
root AWS Organizations (p. 618): A parent container for the accounts in your
organization. If you apply a service control policy (p. 653) to the root, it applies
to every organizational unit (p. 643) and account in the organization.
root credentials Authentication information associated with the AWS account (p. 605) owner.
root device volume A volume (p. 661) that contains the image used to boot the instance (p. 636)

and evaluate the service. In the sandbox, you have full access to the Amazon SES
API, but you can only send messages to verified email addresses and the mailbox
simulator. To get out of the sandbox, you need to apply for production access.
Accounts in the sandbox also have lower sending limits (p. 653) than production
accounts.

for a machine learning model, including attribute names and their assigned data
types, and the names of special attributes.
score cut-off value Amazon Machine Learning: A binary classification model outputs a score that
ranges from 0 to 1. To decide whether an observation should be classified as 1
or 0, you pick a classification threshold, or cut-off, and Amazon ML compares the
Version 1.0
651
score against it. Observations with scores higher than the cut-off are predicted as
target equals 1, and scores lower than the cut-off are predicted as target equals 0.
SCP See service control policy.

resources. As your data volume grows, more search instances or larger search
instances are deployed to contain your indexed data. When necessary, your index
is automatically partitioned across multiple search instances. As your request
volume or complexity increases, each search partition is automatically replicated
to provide additional processing capacity.
search request Amazon CloudSearch (p. 606): A request that is sent to an Amazon CloudSearch
domain's search endpoint to retrieve documents from the index that match
particular search criteria.
search result Amazon CloudSearch (p. 606): A document that matches a search request. Also
referred to as a search hit.
secret access key A key that is used in conjunction with the access key ID (p. 604) to
cryptographically sign programmatic AWS requests. Signing a request identifies
the sender and prevents the request from being altered. You can generate secret
access keys for your AWS account (p. 605), individual IAM user (p. 659)s, and
temporary sessions.
security group A named set of allowed inbound network connections for an instance. (Security
groups in Amazon VPC (p. 611) also include support for outbound connections.)
Each security group consists of a list of protocols, ports, and IP address ranges. A
security group can apply to multiple instances, and multiple groups can regulate a
single instance.

workloads grow. Quotas, also referred to as limits, are the maximum number of
resources that you can create in an AWS account.
service role An IAM (p. 616) role (p. 650) that grants permissions to an AWS service so it
can access AWS resource (p. 650)s. The policies that you attach to the service
role determine which AWS resources the service can access and what it can do
with those resources.
SES See Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES).
session The period during which the temporary security credentials provided by AWS
Security Token Service (AWS STS) (p. 619) allow access to your AWS account.

has deprecated in favor of SHA256.
shard Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES) (p. 608): A partition of data in an
index. You can split an index into multiple shards, which can include primary
shards (original shards) and replica shards (copies of the primary shards). Replica
shards provide failover, which means that a replica shard is promoted to a primary
shard if a cluster node that contains a primary shard fails. Replica shards also can
handle requests.
shared AMI An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) (p. 609) that a developer builds and makes
available for others to use.
shutdown action Amazon EMR (p. 608): A predefined bootstrap action that launches a script that
executes a series of commands in parallel before terminating the job flow.

session to a specific application instance so that all requests coming from the user
Version 1.0
655
during the session are sent to the same application instance. By contrast, a load
balancer defaults to route each request independently to the application instance
with the smallest load.
stopping The process of filtering stop words from an index or search request.
stopword A word that is not indexed and is automatically filtered out of search requests
because it is either insignificant or so common that including it would result in
too many matches to be useful. Stopwords are language specific.
streaming Amazon EMR (p. 608): A utility that comes with Hadoop (p. 634) that enables
you to develop MapReduce executables in languages other than Java.
Amazon CloudFront (p. 606): The ability to use a media file in real time—as it is

designated by the suggester (p. 656). Amazon CloudSearch (p. 606)
suggestions include the document IDs and field values for each matching
document. To be a match, the string must match the contents of the field starting
from the beginning of the field.

synonym A word that is the same or nearly the same as an indexed word and that should
produce the same results when specified in a search request. For example, a
search for "Rocky Four" or "Rocky 4" should return the fourth Rocky movie. This
can be done by designating that four and 4 are synonyms for IV. Synonyms are
language specific.
T
Z (p. 661)
table A collection of data. Similar to other database systems, DynamoDB stores data in
tables.
tag Metadata that you can define and assign to AWS resource (p. 650)s, such as an
EC2 instance (p. 629). Not all AWS resources can be tagged.
tagging Tagging resources: Applying a tag (p. 657) to an AWS resource (p. 650).
Amazon SES (p. 611): Also called labeling. A way to format return path (p. 650)
email addresses so that you can specify a different return path for each
recipient of a message. Tagging enables you to support VERP (p. 660). For
example, if Andrew manages a mailing list, he can use the return paths andrew
[email protected] and [email protected] so that he can
determine which email bounced.
target attribute Amazon Machine Learning (Amazon ML ): The attribute in the input data that
contains the “correct” answers. Amazon ML uses the target attribute to learn how
to make predictions on new data. For example, if you were building a model for
predicting the sale price of a house, the target attribute would be “target sale
price in USD.”
target revision AWS CodeDeploy (p. 614): The most recent version of the application revision
that has been uploaded to the repository and will be deployed to the instances in
a deployment group. In other words, the application revision currently targeted
for deployment. This is also the revision that will be pulled for automatic

container definition (p. 624)s, and volume (p. 661) information.
task node An EC2 instance (p. 629) that runs Hadoop (p. 634) map and reduce tasks,
but does not store data. Task nodes are managed by the master node (p. 640),
which assigns Hadoop tasks to nodes and monitors their status. While a job flow
is running you can increase and decrease the number of task nodes. Because they
Version 1.0
657
don't store data and can be added and removed from a job flow, you can use task
nodes to manage the EC2 instance capacity your job flow uses, increasing capacity
to handle peak loads and decreasing it later.
Task nodes only run a TaskTracker Hadoop daemon.
tebibyte (TiB) A contraction of tera binary byte, a tebibyte is 2^40 or 1,099,511,627,776 bytes.
A terabyte (TB) is 10^12 or 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. 1,024 TiB is a pebibyte
(PiB) (p. 645).
template format version The version of an AWS CloudFormation (p. 614) template design that
determines the available features. If you omit the AWSTemplateFormatVersion
section from your template, AWS CloudFormation assumes the most recent
format version.
template validation The process of confirming the use of JSON (p. 637) code in an AWS
CloudFormation (p. 614) template. You can validate any AWS CloudFormation
template using the cfn-validate-template command.

credentials call an STS API action. Includes an access key ID (p. 604), a secret access
key (p. 652), a session (p. 653) token, and an expiration time.
throttling The automatic restricting or slowing down of a process based on one or more
limits. Examples: Amazon Kinesis Data Streams (p. 609) throttles operations if
an application (or group of applications operating on the same stream) attempts
to get data from a shard at a rate faster than the shard limit. Amazon API
Gateway (p. 606) uses throttling to limit the steady-state request rates for a
single account. Amazon SES (p. 611) uses throttling to reject attempts to send
email that exceeds the sending limits (p. 653).
time series data Data provided as part of a metric. The time value is assumed to be when the value
occurred. A metric is the fundamental concept for Amazon CloudWatch (p. 606)
and represents a time-ordered set of data points. You publish metric data points
into CloudWatch and later retrieve statistics about those data points as a time-
series ordered dataset.
timestamp A date/time string in ISO 8601 format.
TLS See Transport Layer Security (TLS).
tokenization The process of splitting a stream of text into separate tokens on detectable
boundaries such as white space and hyphens.
topic A communication channel to send messages and subscribe to notifications. It

provides an access point for publishers and subscribers to communicate with each
other.
Traffic Mirroring An Amazon VPC feature that you can use to copy network traffic from an elastic
network interface of Amazon EC2 instances, and then send it to out-of-band
security and monitoring appliances for content inspection, threat monitoring, and
troubleshooting.

connect nodes in the private network. The tunnel uses encryption and secure
protocols such as PPTP to prevent the traffic from being intercepted as it passes
through public routing nodes.
U
Z (p. 661)
unbounded The number of potential occurrences is not limited by a set number. This
value is often used when defining a data type that is a list (for example,

to AWS products. Each user has a unique name within the AWS account, and a set
of security credentials not shared with other users. These credentials are separate
from the AWS account's security credentials. Each user is associated with one and
only one AWS account.
Users dataset Amazon Personalize (p. 610): A container for metadata about your users, such as
age, gender, or loyalty membership.
See Also dataset.
user-personalization recipe Amazon Personalize (p. 610): An HRNN-based USER_PERSONALIZATION

recipe that predicts the items that a user will interact with. The user-
personalization recipe can use item exploration and impressions data to generate
recommendations for new items.
See Also HRNN, recipe, USER_PERSONALIZATION recipes, item exploration,
impressions data, recommendations.
Version 1.0

validation See template validation.
value Instances of attributes (p. 613) for an item, such as cells in a spreadsheet. An
attribute might have multiple values.
Tagging resources: A specific tag (p. 657) label that acts as a descriptor within a
tag category (key). For example, you might have EC2 instance (p. 629) with the
tag key of Owner and the tag value of Jan. You can tag an AWS resource (p. 650)
with up to 10 key–value pairs. Not all AWS resources can be tagged.
Variable Envelope Return See VERP.

Path
verification The process of confirming that you own an email address or a domain so that you
can send email from or to it.
VERP Variable Envelope Return Path. A way in which email sending applications can
match bounce (p. 621)d email with the undeliverable address that caused
the bounce by using a different return path (p. 650) for each recipient. VERP
is typically used for mailing lists. With VERP, the recipient's email address is
embedded in the address of the return path, which is where bounced email is
returned. This makes it possible to automate the processing of bounced email
without having to open the bounce messages, which may vary in content.
versioning Every object in Amazon S3 (p. 611) has a key and a version ID. Objects with the
same key, but different version IDs can be stored in the same bucket (p. 621).
Versioning is enabled at the bucket layer using PUT Bucket versioning.
VGW See virtual private gateway (VGW).
virtualization Allows multiple guest virtual machines (VM) to run on a host operating system.
Guest VMs can run on one or more levels above the host hardware, depending on
the type of virtualization.
See Also PV virtualization, HVM virtualization.
virtual private cloud See VPC.
virtual private gateway (VGW) The Amazon side of a VPN connection (p. 661) that maintains connectivity. The
internal interfaces of the virtual private gateway connect to your VPC (p. 661)
through the VPN attachment. The external interfaces connect to the VPN
connection, which leads to the customer gateway (p. 626).
visibility timeout The period of time that a message is invisible to the rest of your application after
an application component gets it from the queue. During the visibility timeout,
the component that received the message usually processes it, and then deletes
it from the queue. This prevents multiple components from processing the same
message.
Version 1.0
660
VM Import/Export A service for importing virtual machine (VM) images from your existing
virtualization environment to Amazon EC2 and then exporting them back.
See Also https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/vm-import.
volume A fixed amount of storage on an instance (p. 636). You can share volume
data between container (p. 624)s and persist the data on the container
instance (p. 624) when the containers are no longer running.
VPC Virtual private cloud. An elastic network populated by infrastructure, platform,

and application services that share common security and interconnection.
VPC endpoint A feature that enables you to create a private connection between your
VPC (p. 661) and another AWS service without requiring access over the
internet, through a NAT (p. 642) instance, a VPN connection (p. 661), or AWS
Direct Connect (p. 615).
VPG See virtual private gateway (VGW).
VPN CloudHub See AWS VPN CloudHub.
VPN connection Amazon Web Services (AWS) (p. 611): The IPsec connection between a
VPC (p. 661) and some other network, such as a corporate data center, home
network, or colocation facility.
W
Z (p. 661)
WAM See Amazon WorkSpaces Application Manager (Amazon WAM).
web access control list (web AWS WAF (p. 620): A set of rules that defines the conditions that AWS WAF
ACL) searches for in web requests to AWS resource (p. 650)s such as Amazon
CloudFront (p. 606) distributions. A web access control list (web ACL) specifies
whether to allow, block, or count the requests.
Web Services Description See WSDL.

Language
WSDL Web Services Description Language. A language used to describe the actions
that a web service can perform, along with the syntax of action requests and
responses.
See Also REST, SOAP.
X, Y, Z
X.509 certificate A digital document that uses the X.509 public key infrastructure (PKI) standard to
verify that a public key belongs to the entity described in the certificate (p. 622).
yobibyte (YiB) A contraction of yotta binary byte, a yobibyte is 2^80 or

1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 bytes. A yottabyte (YB) is 10^24 or
1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes.
zebibyte (ZiB) A contraction of zetta binary byte, a zebibyte is 2^70 or

1,180,591,620,717,411,303,424 bytes. A zettabyte (ZB) is 10^21 or
1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes. 1,024 ZiB is a yobibyte (YiB) (p. 661).
Version 1.0

zone awareness Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES) (p. 608): A configuration that
distributes nodes in a cluster across two Availability Zone (p. 613)s in the same
Region. Zone awareness helps to prevent data loss and minimizes downtime in
the event of node and data center failure. If you enable zone awareness, you must
have an even number of data instances in the instance count, and you also must
use the Amazon Elasticsearch Service Configuration API to replicate your data for
your Elasticsearch cluster.
