AWS CLI
==========
AWS provides two ways of infrastructure configurations
1) AWS Management Web Console
2) AWS CLI (Command Line Interface)
===========================
Using the AWS web console:
===========================
It is a graphical method to connect to various AWS resources, their configuration,
modification, etc. It is simple to use and does not require knowledge of scripting.
============================
AWS Command Line Interface:
============================
Usually, the script provides you with the flexibility to manage multiple AWS
resources, infrastructures effectively.
For example, we can use the script to deploy multiple resources without the need to
go through a complete configuration wizard each time.
============================
Configuring AWS CLI
=============================
1) Create AWS Account: In order to configure AWS CLI.
2) Create IAM user with Security Credentials and note down Access Keys
Access Key : AKIAW4SOHOQRWW5O26VJ
Secret Key : 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
3) Install AWS CLI: AWS CLI is available for Windows, MAC and Linux distribution of
OS.
a) For windows : https://awscli.amazonaws.com/AWSCLIV2.msi (download and
install)
b) MAC and Linux: Please follow these steps (execute below commands)
$ sudo apt-get install -y python-dev python-pip
$ sudo pip install awscli
3) Once Installation completed then execute below commands
$ aws --version (It should give AWS CLI version)
$ aws configure (To connect with AWS Cloud)
Note: AWS configure command will ask for access key, secret access key, region and
output format.

Working with AWS S3 Service using AWS CLI
================================================
Step-1: In this case, we will be using AWS S3 (Simple Storage Service) as an
example.
In brief, AWS S3 is an object storage service.
Step-2: Next, we are going to run “aws s3 ls" (to display bucket lis)
$ aws s3 ls
Step-3: After listing out the content of the existing bucket, let us try to create
a new s3 bucket using AWS CLI
$ aws s3 mb s3://ashokitbucket1
Step-4: As a result of the command execution, the bucket should be created
Step-5: After the command has been executed, let us check, if the bucket has been
created and what is the region of the bucket.
Step-6: Delete bucket
$ aws s3 rb s3://ashokitbucket1
===========================
List out all ec2 instances
===========================
$ aws ec2 describe-instances
Note : It will list down all the data in JSON format
# For example, we can search for instances with a given type
$ aws ec2 describe-instances --filters Name=instance-type,Values=t2.micro
or a tag key:
$ aws ec2 describe-instances --filters "Name=tag-key,Values="EC2VM-2"
=========================================
Create a New Key Pair for EC2 Instances
=========================================
-> Before launching a new EC2 instance we’ll need an SSH key pair that we’ll use to
connect to it securely.
$ aws ec2 create-key-pair --key-name ashokitkey --output text > ashokitkey.pem
The above command will create a new key in the AWS named ashokitkey and pipe the
secret key directly to the location we specify, in this case, ashokitkey.pem.
========================
Launch New EC2 Instances
========================
$ aws ec2 run-instances --image-id ami-0607784b46cbe5816 --instance-type t2.micro
--key-name ashokitkey
=================================
Stop and Start an EC2 Instance
=================================
$ aws ec2 stop-instances --instance-ids <instance-id>
Ex: aws ec2 stop-instances --instance-ids i-003788b5ba504825f
And start again:
$ aws ec2 start-instances --instance-ids <instance-id>
Ex: $ aws ec2 start-instances --instance-ids i-003788b5ba504825f
========================
Terminate an Instance
========================
$ aws ec2 terminate-instances --instance-ids <instance-id>
Ex: $ aws ec2 terminate-instances --instance-ids i-003788b5ba504825f
================================
Creating Security Group in EC2
================================
$ aws ec2 create-security-group --group-name MySecurityGroup --description "My
security group"
=============================
Creating RDS instance (MySQL)
=============================
$ aws rds create-db-instance --db-instance-identifier test-mysql-instance --db-
instance-class db.t3.micro --engine mysql --master-username admin --master-user-
password secret99 --allocated-storage 20
========================
Delete RDS Instance (MySQL)
========================
$ aws rds delete-db-instance ^
--db-instance-identifier test-mysql-instance ^
--skip-final-snapshot ^
--no-delete-automated-backups
