The Application Auto Scaling service API includes three key sets of actions:
Register and manage scalable targets - Register Amazon Web Services or custom resources as scalable targets (a resource that Application Auto Scaling can scale), set minimum and maximum capacity limits, and retrieve information on existing scalable targets.
Configure and manage automatic scaling - Define scaling policies to dynamically scale your resources in response to CloudWatch alarms, schedule one-time or recurring scaling actions, and retrieve your recent scaling activity history.
Suspend and resume scaling - Temporarily suspend and later resume automatic scaling by calling the register_scalable_target
API action for any Application Auto Scaling scalable target. You can suspend and resume (individually or in combination) scale-out activities that are triggered by a scaling policy, scale-in activities that are triggered by a scaling policy, and scheduled scaling.
credentials: Optional credentials shorthand for the config parameter
creds :
access_key_id : AWS access key ID
secret_access_key : AWS secret access key
session_token : AWS temporary session token
profile : The name of a profile to use. If not given, then the default profile is used.
anonymous : Set anonymous credentials.
endpoint: Optional shorthand for complete URL to use for the constructed client.
region: Optional shorthand for AWS Region used in instantiating the client.
Returns
A client for the service. You can call the service's operations using syntax like svc$operation(...), where svc is the name you've assigned to the client. The available operations are listed in the Operations section.
