Properties

AccessPolicies

An AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policy document that specifies who can access the Amazon ES domain and their permissions. For more information, see Configuring Access Policies in the Amazon Elasticsearch Service Developer Guide.

Required: No

Type: JSON object

Update requires: No interruption

AdvancedOptions

Additional options to specify for the Amazon ES domain. For more information, see Configuring Advanced Options in the Amazon Elasticsearch Service Developer Guide.

Required: No

Type: A JSON object that consists of a string key-value pair, such as:


{
  "rest.action.multi.allow_explicit_index": "true"
}

Update requires: Replacement

DomainName

A name for the Amazon ES domain. For valid values, see the DomainName data type in the Amazon Elasticsearch Service Developer Guide.

If you don't specify a name, AWS CloudFormation generates a unique physical ID and uses that ID for the domain name. For more information, see Name Type.

Important

If you specify a name, you cannot perform updates that require replacement of this resource. You can perform updates that require no or some interruption. If you must replace the resource, specify a new name.

Required: No

Type: String

Update requires: Replacement

EBSOptions

The configurations of Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes that are attached to data nodes in the Amazon ES domain. For more information, see Configuring EBS-based Storage in the Amazon Elasticsearch Service Developer Guide.

Required: No

Type: EBSOptions

Update requires: No interruption

ElasticsearchClusterConfig

The cluster configuration for the Amazon ES domain. You can specify options such as the instance type and the number of instances. For more information, see Configuring Amazon ES Domains in the Amazon Elasticsearch Service Developer Guide.

Required: No

Type: ElasticsearchClusterConfig

Update requires: No interruption

ElasticsearchVersion

The version of Elasticsearch to use, such as 2.3. If not specified, 1.5 is used as the default.

For information about the versions that Amazon ES supports, see the Elasticsearch-Version parameter for the CreateElasticsearchDomain action in the Amazon Elasticsearch Service Developer Guide.

Required: No

Type: String

Update requires: Replacement

EncryptionAtRestOptions

Whether the domain should encrypt data at rest, and if so, the AWS Key Management Service (KMS) key to use. Can only be used to create a new domain, not update an existing one.

Required: No

Type: EncryptionAtRestOptions

Update requires: Replacement

NodeToNodeEncryptionOptions

Specifies whether node-to-node encryption is enabled.

Required: No

Type: NodeToNodeEncryptionOptions

Update requires: Replacement

SnapshotOptions

The automated snapshot configuration for the Amazon ES domain indices.

Required: No

Type: SnapshotOptions

Update requires: No interruption

Tags

An arbitrary set of tags (key–value pairs) to associate with the Amazon ES domain.

Required: No

Type: Resource Tag

Update requires: No interruption

VPCOptions

The virtual private cloud (VPC) configuration for the Amazon ES domain. For more information, see VPC Support for Amazon Elasticsearch Service Domains in the Amazon Elasticsearch Service Developer Guide.

Required: No

Type: VPCOptions

Update requires: No interruption

Return Values

Ref

When the logical ID of this resource is provided to the Ref intrinsic function, Ref returns the resource name, such as mystack-elasticsea-abc1d2efg3h4.

For more information about using the Ref function, see Ref.

Fn::GetAtt

Fn::GetAtt returns a value for a specified attribute of this type. The following are the available attributes and sample return values.

DomainArn: The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the domain, such as arn:aws:es:us-west-2:123456789012:domain/mystack-elasti-1ab2cdefghij.
DomainEndpoint: The domain-specific endpoint that's used to submit index, search, and data upload requests to an Amazon ES domain, such as search-mystack-elasti-1ab2cdefghij-ab1c2deckoyb3hofw7wpqa3cm.us-west-2.es.amazonaws.com.

For more information about using Fn::GetAtt, see Fn::GetAtt.

Examples

The following examples create an Amazon ES domain that contains two data nodes and three master nodes. Automated snapshots of the indices are taken daily between midnight and 1:00 AM (UTC). The access policy permits the IAM user es-user to take all Amazon ES actions on the domain, such as es:UpdateElasticsearchDomainConfig.
