ComputeResource
An object that represents an Batch compute resource. For more information, see Compute environments in the Batch User Guide.
Types
Properties
The allocation strategy to use for the compute resource if not enough instances of the best fitting instance type can be allocated. This might be because of availability of the instance type in the Region or Amazon EC2 service limits. For more information, see Allocation strategies in the Batch User Guide.
The maximum percentage that a Spot Instance price can be when compared with the On-Demand price for that instance type before instances are launched. For example, if your maximum percentage is 20%, then the Spot price must be less than 20% of the current On-Demand price for that Amazon EC2 instance. You always pay the lowest (market) price and never more than your maximum percentage. If you leave this field empty, the default value is 100% of the On-Demand price. For most use cases, we recommend leaving this field empty.
The desired number of vCPUS in the compute environment. Batch modifies this value between the minimum and maximum values based on job queue demand.
Provides information that's used to select Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) for EC2 instances in the compute environment. If Ec2Configuration isn't specified, the default is ECS_AL2.
The Amazon EC2 key pair that's used for instances launched in the compute environment. You can use this key pair to log in to your instances with SSH.
The Amazon ECS instance profile applied to Amazon EC2 instances in a compute environment. This parameter is required for Amazon EC2 instances types. You can specify the short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an instance profile. For example, <i>ecsInstanceRole</i> or arn:aws:iam::<i><aws_account_id></i>:instance-profile/<i>ecsInstanceRole</i> . For more information, see Amazon ECS instance role in the Batch User Guide.
The instances types that can be launched. You can specify instance families to launch any instance type within those families (for example, c5 or p3), or you can specify specific sizes within a family (such as c5.8xlarge). You can also choose optimal to select instance types (from the C4, M4, and R4 instance families) that match the demand of your job queues.
The launch template to use for your compute resources. Any other compute resource parameters that you specify in a CreateComputeEnvironment API operation override the same parameters in the launch template. You must specify either the launch template ID or launch template name in the request, but not both. For more information, see Launch template support in the Batch User Guide.
The Amazon EC2 placement group to associate with your compute resources. If you intend to submit multi-node parallel jobs to your compute environment, you should consider creating a cluster placement group and associate it with your compute resources. This keeps your multi-node parallel job on a logical grouping of instances within a single Availability Zone with high network flow potential. For more information, see Placement groups in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.
The Amazon EC2 security groups that are associated with instances launched in the compute environment. One or more security groups must be specified, either in securityGroupIds or using a launch template referenced in launchTemplate. This parameter is required for jobs that are running on Fargate resources and must contain at least one security group. Fargate doesn't support launch templates. If security groups are specified using both securityGroupIds and launchTemplate, the values in securityGroupIds are used.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon EC2 Spot Fleet IAM role applied to a SPOT compute environment. This role is required if the allocation strategy set to BEST_FIT or if the allocation strategy isn't specified. For more information, see Amazon EC2 spot fleet role in the Batch User Guide.
The VPC subnets where the compute resources are launched. These subnets must be within the same VPC. Fargate compute resources can contain up to 16 subnets. For more information, see VPCs and subnets in the Amazon VPC User Guide.
Key-value pair tags to be applied to EC2 resources that are launched in the compute environment. For Batch, these take the form of "String1": "String2", where String1 is the tag key and String2 is the tag value-for example, { "Name": "Batch Instance - C4OnDemand" }. This is helpful for recognizing your Batch instances in the Amazon EC2 console. Updating these tags requires an infrastructure update to the compute environment. For more information, see Updating compute environments in the Batch User Guide. These tags aren't seen when using the Batch ListTagsForResource API operation.
The type of compute environment: EC2, SPOT, FARGATE, or FARGATE_SPOT. For more information, see Compute environments in the Batch User Guide.
