Overview

Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.

Service Description

Use AWS Auto Scaling to create scaling plans for your applications to automatically scale your scalable AWS resources.

API Summary

You can use the AWS Auto Scaling service API to accomplish the following tasks:

  • Create and manage scaling plans

  • Define target tracking scaling policies to dynamically scale your resources based on utilization

  • Scale Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling groups using predictive scaling and dynamic scaling to scale your Amazon EC2 capacity faster

  • Set minimum and maximum capacity limits

  • Retrieve information on existing scaling plans

  • Access current forecast data and historical forecast data for up to 56 days previous

To learn more about AWS Auto Scaling, including information about granting IAM users required permissions for AWS Auto Scaling actions, see the AWS Auto Scaling User Guide.

Sending a Request Using AutoScalingPlans

var autoscalingplans = new AWS.AutoScalingPlans();
autoscalingplans.createScalingPlan(params, function (err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Locking the API Version

In order to ensure that the AutoScalingPlans object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var autoscalingplans = new AWS.AutoScalingPlans({apiVersion: '2018-01-06'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the autoscalingplans service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  autoscalingplans: '2018-01-06',
  // other service API versions
};

var autoscalingplans = new AWS.AutoScalingPlans();

            You create the resource label by appending the final portion of the load balancer ARN and the final portion of the target group ARN into a single value, separated by a forward slash (/). The format is app/<load-balancer-name>/<load-balancer-id>/targetgroup/<target-group-name>/<target-group-id>, where:

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

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

            This is an example: app/EC2Co-EcsEl-1TKLTMITMM0EO/f37c06a68c1748aa/targetgroup/EC2Co-Defau-LDNM7Q3ZH1ZN/6d4ea56ca2d6a18d.

            To find the ARN for an Application Load Balancer, use the DescribeLoadBalancers API operation. To find the ARN for the target group, use the DescribeTargetGroups API operation.

        • CustomizedScalingMetricSpecification — (map)

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

          • MetricNamerequired — (String)

            The name of the metric.

          • Namespacerequired — (String)

            The namespace of the metric.

          • Dimensions — (Array<map>)

            The dimensions of the metric.

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

            • Namerequired — (String)

              The name of the dimension.

            • Valuerequired — (String)

              The value of the dimension.

          • Statisticrequired — (String)

            The statistic of the metric.

            Possible values include:
            • "Average"
            • "Minimum"
            • "Maximum"
            • "SampleCount"
            • "Sum"

        • DisableScaleIn — (Boolean)

          Indicates whether scale in by the target tracking scaling policy is disabled. If the value is true, scale in is disabled and the target tracking scaling policy doesn't remove capacity from the scalable resource. Otherwise, scale in is enabled and the target tracking scaling policy can remove capacity from the scalable resource.

          The default value is false.

        • ScaleOutCooldown — (Integer)

          The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for a previous scale-out activity to take effect. This property is not used if the scalable resource is an Auto Scaling group.

          With the scale-out cooldown period, the intention is to continuously (but not excessively) scale out. After Auto Scaling successfully scales out using a target tracking scaling policy, it starts to calculate the cooldown time. The scaling policy won't increase the desired capacity again unless either a larger scale out is triggered or the cooldown period ends.

        • ScaleInCooldown — (Integer)

          The amount of time, in seconds, after a scale-in activity completes before another scale-in activity can start. This property is not used if the scalable resource is an Auto Scaling group.

          With the scale-in cooldown period, the intention is to scale in conservatively to protect your application’s availability, so scale-in activities are blocked until the cooldown period has expired. However, if another alarm triggers a scale-out activity during the scale-in cooldown period, Auto Scaling scales out the target immediately. In this case, the scale-in cooldown period stops and doesn't complete.

        • EstimatedInstanceWarmup — (Integer)

          The estimated time, in seconds, until a newly launched instance can contribute to the CloudWatch metrics. This value is used only if the resource is an Auto Scaling group.

      • PredefinedLoadMetricSpecification — (map)

        The predefined load metric to use for predictive scaling. This parameter or a CustomizedLoadMetricSpecification is required when configuring predictive scaling, and cannot be used otherwise.

        • PredefinedLoadMetricTyperequired — (String)

          The metric type.

          Possible values include:
          • "ASGTotalCPUUtilization"
          • "ASGTotalNetworkIn"
          • "ASGTotalNetworkOut"
          • "ALBTargetGroupRequestCount"
        • ResourceLabel — (String)

          Identifies the resource associated with the metric type. You can't specify a resource label unless the metric type is ALBTargetGroupRequestCount and there is a target group for an Application Load Balancer attached to the Auto Scaling group.

          You create the resource label by appending the final portion of the load balancer ARN and the final portion of the target group ARN into a single value, separated by a forward slash (/). The format is app/<load-balancer-name>/<load-balancer-id>/targetgroup/<target-group-name>/<target-group-id>, where:

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

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

          This is an example: app/EC2Co-EcsEl-1TKLTMITMM0EO/f37c06a68c1748aa/targetgroup/EC2Co-Defau-LDNM7Q3ZH1ZN/6d4ea56ca2d6a18d.

          To find the ARN for an Application Load Balancer, use the DescribeLoadBalancers API operation. To find the ARN for the target group, use the DescribeTargetGroups API operation.

      • CustomizedLoadMetricSpecification — (map)

        The customized load metric to use for predictive scaling. This parameter or a PredefinedLoadMetricSpecification is required when configuring predictive scaling, and cannot be used otherwise.

        • MetricNamerequired — (String)

          The name of the metric.

        • Namespacerequired — (String)

          The namespace of the metric.

        • Dimensions — (Array<map>)

          The dimensions of the metric.

          Conditional: If you published your metric with dimensions, you must specify the same dimensions in your customized load metric specification.

          • Namerequired — (String)

            The name of the dimension.

          • Valuerequired — (String)

            The value of the dimension.

        • Statisticrequired — (String)

          The statistic of the metric. The only valid value is Sum.

          Possible values include:
          • "Average"
          • "Minimum"
          • "Maximum"
          • "SampleCount"
          • "Sum"
        • Unit — (String)

          The unit of the metric.

      • ScheduledActionBufferTime — (Integer)

        The amount of time, in seconds, to buffer the run time of scheduled scaling actions when scaling out. For example, if the forecast says to add capacity at 10:00 AM, and the buffer time is 5 minutes, then the run time of the corresponding scheduled scaling action will be 9:55 AM. The intention is to give resources time to be provisioned. For example, it can take a few minutes to launch an EC2 instance. The actual amount of time required depends on several factors, such as the size of the instance and whether there are startup scripts to complete.

        The value must be less than the forecast interval duration of 3600 seconds (60 minutes). The default is 300 seconds.

        Only valid when configuring predictive scaling.

      • PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBehavior — (String)

        Defines the behavior that should be applied if the forecast capacity approaches or exceeds the maximum capacity specified for the resource. The default value is SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity.

        The following are possible values:

        • SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling cannot scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity. The maximum capacity is enforced as a hard limit.

        • SetMaxCapacityToForecastCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling may scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity to equal but not exceed forecast capacity.

        • SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling may scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity by a specified buffer value. The intention is to give the target tracking scaling policy extra capacity if unexpected traffic occurs.

        Only valid when configuring predictive scaling.

        Possible values include:
        • "SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity"
        • "SetMaxCapacityToForecastCapacity"
        • "SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity"
      • PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBuffer — (Integer)

        The size of the capacity buffer to use when the forecast capacity is close to or exceeds the maximum capacity. The value is specified as a percentage relative to the forecast capacity. For example, if the buffer is 10, this means a 10 percent buffer, such that if the forecast capacity is 50, and the maximum capacity is 40, then the effective maximum capacity is 55.

        Only valid when configuring predictive scaling. Required if the PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBehavior is set to SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity, and cannot be used otherwise.

        The range is 1-100.

      • PredictiveScalingMode — (String)

        The predictive scaling mode. The default value is ForecastAndScale. Otherwise, AWS Auto Scaling forecasts capacity but does not create any scheduled scaling actions based on the capacity forecast.

        Possible values include:
        • "ForecastAndScale"
        • "ForecastOnly"
      • ScalingPolicyUpdateBehavior — (String)

        Controls whether a resource's externally created scaling policies are kept or replaced.

        The default value is KeepExternalPolicies. If the parameter is set to ReplaceExternalPolicies, any scaling policies that are external to AWS Auto Scaling are deleted and new target tracking scaling policies created.

        Only valid when configuring dynamic scaling.

        Condition: The number of existing policies to be replaced must be less than or equal to 50. If there are more than 50 policies to be replaced, AWS Auto Scaling keeps all existing policies and does not create new ones.

        Possible values include:
        • "KeepExternalPolicies"
        • "ReplaceExternalPolicies"
      • DisableDynamicScaling — (Boolean)

        Controls whether dynamic scaling by AWS Auto Scaling is disabled. When dynamic scaling is enabled, AWS Auto Scaling creates target tracking scaling policies based on the specified target tracking configurations.

        The default is enabled (false).

                The dimensions of the metric.

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

                • Namerequired — (String)

                  The name of the dimension.

                • Valuerequired — (String)

                • "SampleCount"
                • "Sum"
              • Unit — (String)

                The unit of the metric.

            • TargetValuerequired — (Float)

              The target value for the metric. Although this property accepts numbers of type Double, it won't accept values that are either too small or too large. Values must be in the range of -2360 to 2360.

            • DisableScaleIn — (Boolean)

              Indicates whether scale in by the target tracking scaling policy is disabled. If the value is true, scale in is disabled and the target tracking scaling policy doesn't remove capacity from the scalable resource. Otherwise, scale in is enabled and the target tracking scaling policy can remove capacity from the scalable resource.

              The default value is false.

            • ScaleOutCooldown — (Integer)

              The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for a previous scale-out activity to take effect. This property is not used if the scalable resource is an Auto Scaling group.

              With the scale-out cooldown period, the intention is to continuously (but not excessively) scale out. After Auto Scaling successfully scales out using a target tracking scaling policy, it starts to calculate the cooldown time. The scaling policy won't increase the desired capacity again unless either a larger scale out is triggered or the cooldown period ends.

            • ScaleInCooldown — (Integer)

              The amount of time, in seconds, after a scale-in activity completes before another scale-in activity can start. This property is not used if the scalable resource is an Auto Scaling group.

              With the scale-in cooldown period, the intention is to scale in conservatively to protect your application’s availability, so scale-in activities are blocked until the cooldown period has expired. However, if another alarm triggers a scale-out activity during the scale-in cooldown period, Auto Scaling scales out the target immediately. In this case, the scale-in cooldown period stops and doesn't complete.

            • EstimatedInstanceWarmup — (Integer)

              The estimated time, in seconds, until a newly launched instance can contribute to the CloudWatch metrics. This value is used only if the resource is an Auto Scaling group.

        • ScalingStatusCoderequired — (String)

          The scaling status of the resource.

          • Active - The scaling configuration is active.

          • Inactive - The scaling configuration is not active because the scaling plan is being created or the scaling configuration could not be applied. Check the status message for more information.

          • PartiallyActive - The scaling configuration is partially active because the scaling plan is being created or deleted or the scaling configuration could not be fully applied. Check the status message for more information.

          Possible values include:
          • "Inactive"
          • "PartiallyActive"
          • "Active"
        • ScalingStatusMessage — (String)

          A simple message about the current scaling status of the resource.

      • NextToken — (String)

        The token required to get the next set of results. This value is null if there are no more results to return.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

          • TargetTrackingConfigurationsrequired — (Array<map>)

            The target tracking configurations (up to 10). Each of these structures must specify a unique scaling metric and a target value for the metric.

            • PredefinedScalingMetricSpecification — (map)

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

              • PredefinedScalingMetricTyperequired — (String)

                You create the resource label by appending the final portion of the load balancer ARN and the final portion of the target group ARN into a single value, separated by a forward slash (/). The format is app/<load-balancer-name>/<load-balancer-id>/targetgroup/<target-group-name>/<target-group-id>, where:

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

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

                This is an example: app/EC2Co-EcsEl-1TKLTMITMM0EO/f37c06a68c1748aa/targetgroup/EC2Co-Defau-LDNM7Q3ZH1ZN/6d4ea56ca2d6a18d.

                To find the ARN for an Application Load Balancer, use the DescribeLoadBalancers API operation. To find the ARN for the target group, use the DescribeTargetGroups API operation.

            • CustomizedScalingMetricSpecification — (map)

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

              • MetricNamerequired — (String)

                The name of the metric.

              • Namespacerequired — (String)

                The namespace of the metric.

              • Dimensions — (Array<map>)

                The dimensions of the metric.

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

                • Namerequired — (String)

                  The name of the dimension.

                • Valuerequired — (String)

                  The value of the dimension.

              • Statisticrequired — (String)

                The statistic of the metric.

                Possible values include:
                • "Average"
                • "Minimum"
                • "Maximum"
                • "SampleCount"
                • "Sum"
              • Unit — (String)

                The unit of the metric.

            • TargetValuerequired — (Float)

              The target value for the metric. Although this property accepts numbers of type Double, it won't accept values that are either too small or too large. Values must be in the range of -2360 to 2360.

            • DisableScaleIn — (Boolean)

              Indicates whether scale in by the target tracking scaling policy is disabled. If the value is true, scale in is disabled and the target tracking scaling policy doesn't remove capacity from the scalable resource. Otherwise, scale in is enabled and the target tracking scaling policy can remove capacity from the scalable resource.

              The default value is false.

            • ScaleOutCooldown — (Integer)

              The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for a previous scale-out activity to take effect. This property is not used if the scalable resource is an Auto Scaling group.

              With the scale-out cooldown period, the intention is to continuously (but not excessively) scale out. After Auto Scaling successfully scales out using a target tracking scaling policy, it starts to calculate the cooldown time. The scaling policy won't increase the desired capacity again unless either a larger scale out is triggered or the cooldown period ends.

            • ScaleInCooldown — (Integer)

              The amount of time, in seconds, after a scale-in activity completes before another scale-in activity can start. This property is not used if the scalable resource is an Auto Scaling group.

              With the scale-in cooldown period, the intention is to scale in conservatively to protect your application’s availability, so scale-in activities are blocked until the cooldown period has expired. However, if another alarm triggers a scale-out activity during the scale-in cooldown period, Auto Scaling scales out the target immediately. In this case, the scale-in cooldown period stops and doesn't complete.

            • EstimatedInstanceWarmup — (Integer)

              The estimated time, in seconds, until a newly launched instance can contribute to the CloudWatch metrics. This value is used only if the resource is an Auto Scaling group.

          • PredefinedLoadMetricSpecification — (map)

            The predefined load metric to use for predictive scaling. This parameter or a CustomizedLoadMetricSpecification is required when configuring predictive scaling, and cannot be used otherwise.

            • PredefinedLoadMetricTyperequired — (String)

              The metric type.

              Possible values include:
              • "ASGTotalCPUUtilization"
              • "ASGTotalNetworkIn"
              • "ASGTotalNetworkOut"
              • "ALBTargetGroupRequestCount"
            • ResourceLabel — (String)

              Identifies the resource associated with the metric type. You can't specify a resource label unless the metric type is ALBTargetGroupRequestCount and there is a target group for an Application Load Balancer attached to the Auto Scaling group.

              You create the resource label by appending the final portion of the load balancer ARN and the final portion of the target group ARN into a single value, separated by a forward slash (/). The format is app/<load-balancer-name>/<load-balancer-id>/targetgroup/<target-group-name>/<target-group-id>, where:

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

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

              This is an example: app/EC2Co-EcsEl-1TKLTMITMM0EO/f37c06a68c1748aa/targetgroup/EC2Co-Defau-LDNM7Q3ZH1ZN/6d4ea56ca2d6a18d.

              To find the ARN for an Application Load Balancer, use the DescribeLoadBalancers API operation. To find the ARN for the target group, use the DescribeTargetGroups API operation.

          • CustomizedLoadMetricSpecification — (map)

            The customized load metric to use for predictive scaling. This parameter or a PredefinedLoadMetricSpecification is required when configuring predictive scaling, and cannot be used otherwise.

            • MetricNamerequired — (String)

              The name of the metric.

            • Namespacerequired — (String)

              The namespace of the metric.

            • Dimensions — (Array<map>)

              The dimensions of the metric.

              Conditional: If you published your metric with dimensions, you must specify the same dimensions in your customized load metric specification.

              • Namerequired — (String)

                The name of the dimension.

              • Valuerequired — (String)

                The value of the dimension.

            • Statisticrequired — (String)

              The statistic of the metric. The only valid value is Sum.

              Possible values include:
              • "Average"
              • "Minimum"
              • "Maximum"
              • "SampleCount"
              • "Sum"
            • Unit — (String)

              The unit of the metric.

          • ScheduledActionBufferTime — (Integer)

            The amount of time, in seconds, to buffer the run time of scheduled scaling actions when scaling out. For example, if the forecast says to add capacity at 10:00 AM, and the buffer time is 5 minutes, then the run time of the corresponding scheduled scaling action will be 9:55 AM. The intention is to give resources time to be provisioned. For example, it can take a few minutes to launch an EC2 instance. The actual amount of time required depends on several factors, such as the size of the instance and whether there are startup scripts to complete.

            The value must be less than the forecast interval duration of 3600 seconds (60 minutes). The default is 300 seconds.

            Only valid when configuring predictive scaling.

          • PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBehavior — (String)

            Defines the behavior that should be applied if the forecast capacity approaches or exceeds the maximum capacity specified for the resource. The default value is SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity.

            The following are possible values:

            • SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling cannot scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity. The maximum capacity is enforced as a hard limit.

            • SetMaxCapacityToForecastCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling may scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity to equal but not exceed forecast capacity.

            • SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling may scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity by a specified buffer value. The intention is to give the target tracking scaling policy extra capacity if unexpected traffic occurs.

            Only valid when configuring predictive scaling.

            Possible values include:
            • "SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity"
            • "SetMaxCapacityToForecastCapacity"
            • "SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity"
          • PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBuffer — (Integer)

            The size of the capacity buffer to use when the forecast capacity is close to or exceeds the maximum capacity. The value is specified as a percentage relative to the forecast capacity. For example, if the buffer is 10, this means a 10 percent buffer, such that if the forecast capacity is 50, and the maximum capacity is 40, then the effective maximum capacity is 55.

            Only valid when configuring predictive scaling. Required if the PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBehavior is set to SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity, and cannot be used otherwise.

            The range is 1-100.

          • PredictiveScalingMode — (String)

            The predictive scaling mode. The default value is ForecastAndScale. Otherwise, AWS Auto Scaling forecasts capacity but does not create any scheduled scaling actions based on the capacity forecast.

            Possible values include:
            • "ForecastAndScale"
            • "ForecastOnly"
          • ScalingPolicyUpdateBehavior — (String)

            Controls whether a resource's externally created scaling policies are kept or replaced.

            The default value is KeepExternalPolicies. If the parameter is set to ReplaceExternalPolicies, any scaling policies that are external to AWS Auto Scaling are deleted and new target tracking scaling policies created.

            Only valid when configuring dynamic scaling.

            Condition: The number of existing policies to be replaced must be less than or equal to 50. If there are more than 50 policies to be replaced, AWS Auto Scaling keeps all existing policies and does not create new ones.

            Possible values include:
            • "KeepExternalPolicies"
            • "ReplaceExternalPolicies"
          • DisableDynamicScaling — (Boolean)

            Controls whether dynamic scaling by AWS Auto Scaling is disabled. When dynamic scaling is enabled, AWS Auto Scaling creates target tracking scaling policies based on the specified target tracking configurations.

            The default is enabled (false).

        • StatusCoderequired — (String)

          The status of the scaling plan.

          • Active - The scaling plan is active.

          • ActiveWithProblems - The scaling plan is active, but the scaling configuration for one or more resources could not be applied.

          • CreationInProgress - The scaling plan is being created.

          • CreationFailed - The scaling plan could not be created.

          • DeletionInProgress - The scaling plan is being deleted.

          • ResourceLabel — (String)

            Identifies the resource associated with the metric type. You can't specify a resource label unless the metric type is ALBRequestCountPerTarget and there is a target group for an Application Load Balancer attached to the Auto Scaling group, Spot Fleet request, or ECS service.

            You create the resource label by appending the final portion of the load balancer ARN and the final portion of the target group ARN into a single value, separated by a forward slash (/). The format is app/<load-balancer-name>/<load-balancer-id>/targetgroup/<target-group-name>/<target-group-id>, where:

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

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

            This is an example: app/EC2Co-EcsEl-1TKLTMITMM0EO/f37c06a68c1748aa/targetgroup/EC2Co-Defau-LDNM7Q3ZH1ZN/6d4ea56ca2d6a18d.

            To find the ARN for an Application Load Balancer, use the DescribeLoadBalancers API operation. To find the ARN for the target group, use the DescribeTargetGroups API operation.

        • CustomizedScalingMetricSpecification — (map)

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

          • MetricNamerequired — (String)

            The name of the metric.

          • Namespacerequired — (String)

            The namespace of the metric.

          • Dimensions — (Array<map>)

            The dimensions of the metric.

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

            • Namerequired — (String)

              The name of the dimension.

            • Valuerequired — (String)

              The value of the dimension.

          • Statisticrequired — (String)

            The statistic of the metric.

            Possible values include:
            • "Average"
            • "Minimum"
            • "Maximum"
            • "SampleCount"
            • "Sum"
          • Unit — (String)

            The unit of the metric.

        • TargetValuerequired — (Float)

          The target value for the metric. Although this property accepts numbers of type Double, it won't accept values that are either too small or too large. Values must be in the range of -2360 to 2360.

        • DisableScaleIn — (Boolean)

          Indicates whether scale in by the target tracking scaling policy is disabled. If the value is true, scale in is disabled and the target tracking scaling policy doesn't remove capacity from the scalable resource. Otherwise, scale in is enabled and the target tracking scaling policy can remove capacity from the scalable resource.

          The default value is false.

        • ScaleOutCooldown — (Integer)

          The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for a previous scale-out activity to take effect. This property is not used if the scalable resource is an Auto Scaling group.

          With the scale-out cooldown period, the intention is to continuously (but not excessively) scale out. After Auto Scaling successfully scales out using a target tracking scaling policy, it starts to calculate the cooldown time. The scaling policy won't increase the desired capacity again unless either a larger scale out is triggered or the cooldown period ends.

        • ScaleInCooldown — (Integer)

          The amount of time, in seconds, after a scale-in activity completes before another scale-in activity can start. This property is not used if the scalable resource is an Auto Scaling group.

          With the scale-in cooldown period, the intention is to scale in conservatively to protect your application’s availability, so scale-in activities are blocked until the cooldown period has expired. However, if another alarm triggers a scale-out activity during the scale-in cooldown period, Auto Scaling scales out the target immediately. In this case, the scale-in cooldown period stops and doesn't complete.

        • EstimatedInstanceWarmup — (Integer)

          The estimated time, in seconds, until a newly launched instance can contribute to the CloudWatch metrics. This value is used only if the resource is an Auto Scaling group.

      • PredefinedLoadMetricSpecification — (map)

        The predefined load metric to use for predictive scaling. This parameter or a CustomizedLoadMetricSpecification is required when configuring predictive scaling, and cannot be used otherwise.

        • PredefinedLoadMetricTyperequired — (String)

          The metric type.

          Possible values include:
          • "ASGTotalCPUUtilization"
          • "ASGTotalNetworkIn"
          • "ASGTotalNetworkOut"
          • "ALBTargetGroupRequestCount"
        • ResourceLabel — (String)

          Identifies the resource associated with the metric type. You can't specify a resource label unless the metric type is ALBTargetGroupRequestCount and there is a target group for an Application Load Balancer attached to the Auto Scaling group.

          You create the resource label by appending the final portion of the load balancer ARN and the final portion of the target group ARN into a single value, separated by a forward slash (/). The format is app/<load-balancer-name>/<load-balancer-id>/targetgroup/<target-group-name>/<target-group-id>, where:

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

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

          This is an example: app/EC2Co-EcsEl-1TKLTMITMM0EO/f37c06a68c1748aa/targetgroup/EC2Co-Defau-LDNM7Q3ZH1ZN/6d4ea56ca2d6a18d.

          To find the ARN for an Application Load Balancer, use the DescribeLoadBalancers API operation. To find the ARN for the target group, use the DescribeTargetGroups API operation.

      • CustomizedLoadMetricSpecification — (map)

        The customized load metric to use for predictive scaling. This parameter or a PredefinedLoadMetricSpecification is required when configuring predictive scaling, and cannot be used otherwise.

        • MetricNamerequired — (String)

          The name of the metric.

        • Namespacerequired — (String)

          The namespace of the metric.

        • Dimensions — (Array<map>)

          The dimensions of the metric.

          Conditional: If you published your metric with dimensions, you must specify the same dimensions in your customized load metric specification.

          • Namerequired — (String)

            The name of the dimension.

          • Valuerequired — (String)

            The value of the dimension.

        • Statisticrequired — (String)

          The statistic of the metric. The only valid value is Sum.

          Possible values include:
          • "Average"
          • "Minimum"
          • "Maximum"
          • "SampleCount"
          • "Sum"
        • Unit — (String)

          The unit of the metric.

      • ScheduledActionBufferTime — (Integer)

        The amount of time, in seconds, to buffer the run time of scheduled scaling actions when scaling out. For example, if the forecast says to add capacity at 10:00 AM, and the buffer time is 5 minutes, then the run time of the corresponding scheduled scaling action will be 9:55 AM. The intention is to give resources time to be provisioned. For example, it can take a few minutes to launch an EC2 instance. The actual amount of time required depends on several factors, such as the size of the instance and whether there are startup scripts to complete.

        The value must be less than the forecast interval duration of 3600 seconds (60 minutes). The default is 300 seconds.

        Only valid when configuring predictive scaling.

      • PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBehavior — (String)

        Defines the behavior that should be applied if the forecast capacity approaches or exceeds the maximum capacity specified for the resource. The default value is SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity.

        The following are possible values:

        • SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling cannot scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity. The maximum capacity is enforced as a hard limit.

        • SetMaxCapacityToForecastCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling may scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity to equal but not exceed forecast capacity.

        • SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity - AWS Auto Scaling may scale resource capacity higher than the maximum capacity by a specified buffer value. The intention is to give the target tracking scaling policy extra capacity if unexpected traffic occurs.

        Only valid when configuring predictive scaling.

        Possible values include:
        • "SetForecastCapacityToMaxCapacity"
        • "SetMaxCapacityToForecastCapacity"
        • "SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity"
      • PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBuffer — (Integer)

        The size of the capacity buffer to use when the forecast capacity is close to or exceeds the maximum capacity. The value is specified as a percentage relative to the forecast capacity. For example, if the buffer is 10, this means a 10 percent buffer, such that if the forecast capacity is 50, and the maximum capacity is 40, then the effective maximum capacity is 55.

        Only valid when configuring predictive scaling. Required if the PredictiveScalingMaxCapacityBehavior is set to SetMaxCapacityAboveForecastCapacity, and cannot be used otherwise.

        The range is 1-100.

      • PredictiveScalingMode — (String)

        The predictive scaling mode. The default value is ForecastAndScale. Otherwise, AWS Auto Scaling forecasts capacity but does not create any scheduled scaling actions based on the capacity forecast.

        Possible values include:
        • "ForecastAndScale"
        • "ForecastOnly"
      • ScalingPolicyUpdateBehavior — (String)

        Controls whether a resource's externally created scaling policies are kept or replaced.

        The default value is KeepExternalPolicies. If the parameter is set to ReplaceExternalPolicies, any scaling policies that are external to AWS Auto Scaling are deleted and new target tracking scaling policies created.

        Only valid when configuring dynamic scaling.

        Condition: The number of existing policies to be replaced must be less than or equal to 50. If there are more than 50 policies to be replaced, AWS Auto Scaling keeps all existing policies and does not create new ones.

        Possible values include:
        • "KeepExternalPolicies"
        • "ReplaceExternalPolicies"
      • DisableDynamicScaling — (Boolean)

        Controls whether dynamic scaling by AWS Auto Scaling is disabled. When dynamic scaling is enabled, AWS Auto Scaling creates target tracking scaling policies based on the specified target tracking configurations.

        The default is enabled (false).
