Interface for accessing AmazonElasticLoadBalancing. Elastic Load Balancing

Elastic Load Balancing is a cost-effective and easy to use web service to help you improve the availability and scalability of your application running on Amazon Elastic Cloud Compute (Amazon EC2). It makes it easy for you to distribute application loads between two or more EC2 instances. Elastic Load Balancing supports the growth in traffic of your application by enabling availability through redundancy.

This guide provides detailed information about Elastic Load Balancing actions, data types, and parameters that can be used for sending a query request. Query requests are HTTP or HTTPS requests that use the HTTP verb GET or POST and a query parameter named Action or Operation. Action is used throughout this documentation, although Operation is supported for backward compatibility with other AWS Query APIs.

For detailed information on constructing a query request using the actions, data types, and parameters mentioned in this guide, go to Using the Query API in the Elastic Load Balancing Developer Guide .

For detailed information about Elastic Load Balancing features and their associated actions, go to Using Elastic Load Balancing in the Elastic Load Balancing Developer Guide .

This reference guide is based on the current WSDL, which is available at:

Endpoints

The examples in this guide assume that your load balancers are created in the US East (Northern Virginia) region and use us-east-1 as the endpoint.

You can create your load balancers in other AWS regions. For information about regions and endpoints supported by Elastic Load Balancing, see Regions and Endpoints in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

Method Detail

setEndpoint

void setEndpoint(java.lang.String endpoint)
                 throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Overrides the default endpoint for this client ("https://elasticloadbalancing.amazonaws.com"). Callers can use this method to control which AWS region they want to work with.

Callers can pass in just the endpoint (ex: "elasticloadbalancing.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the protocol (ex: "https://elasticloadbalancing.amazonaws.com"). If the protocol is not specified here, the default protocol from this client's ClientConfiguration will be used, which by default is HTTPS.

For more information on using AWS regions with the AWS SDK for Java, and a complete list of all available endpoints for all AWS services, see: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?externalID=3912

This method is not threadsafe. An endpoint should be configured when the client is created and before any service requests are made. Changing it afterwards creates inevitable race conditions for any service requests in transit or retrying.

Parameters:

endpoint - The endpoint (ex: "elasticloadbalancing.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the protocol (ex: "https://elasticloadbalancing.amazonaws.com") of the region specific AWS endpoint this client will communicate with.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If any problems are detected with the specified endpoint.

setRegion

void setRegion(Region region)
               throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

An alternative to setEndpoint(String), sets the regional endpoint for this client's service calls. Callers can use this method to control which AWS region they want to work with.

By default, all service endpoints in all regions use the https protocol. To use http instead, specify it in the ClientConfiguration supplied at construction.

This method is not threadsafe. A region should be configured when the client is created and before any service requests are made. Changing it afterwards creates inevitable race conditions for any service requests in transit or retrying.

Parameters:

region - The region this client will communicate with. See Region.getRegion(com.amazonaws.regions.Regions) for accessing a given region.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If the given region is null, or if this service isn't available in the given region. See Region.isServiceSupported(String)

Generates a stickiness policy with sticky session lifetimes that follow that of an application-generated cookie. This policy can be associated only with HTTP/HTTPS listeners.

This policy is similar to the policy created by CreateLBCookieStickinessPolicy, except that the lifetime of the special Elastic Load Balancing cookie follows the lifetime of the application-generated cookie specified in the policy configuration. The load balancer only inserts a new stickiness cookie when the application response includes a new application cookie.

If the application cookie is explicitly removed or expires, the session stops being sticky until a new application cookie is issued.

NOTE: An application client must receive and send two cookies: the application-generated cookie and the special Elastic Load Balancing cookie named AWSELB. This is the default behavior for many common web browsers.

                                                   AmazonClientException

Creates a new load balancer.

After the call has completed successfully, a new load balancer is created with a unique Domain Name Service (DNS) name. The DNS name includes the name of the AWS region in which the load balance was created. For example, if your load balancer was created in the United States, the DNS name might end with either of the following:

• us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com (for the Northern Virginia Region)
• us-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com (for the Northern California Region)

For information about the AWS regions supported by Elastic Load Balancing, see Regions and Endpoints .

You can create up to 20 load balancers per region per account.

Elastic Load Balancing supports load balancing your Amazon EC2 instances launched within any one of the following platforms:

• EC2-Classic

  For information on creating and managing your load balancers in EC2-Classic, see Deploy Elastic Load Balancing in Amazon EC2-Classic .

• EC2-VPC

  For information on creating and managing your load balancers in EC2-VPC, see Deploy Elastic Load Balancing in Amazon VPC .

Generates a stickiness policy with sticky session lifetimes controlled by the lifetime of the browser (user-agent) or a specified expiration period. This policy can be associated only with HTTP/HTTPS listeners.

When a load balancer implements this policy, the load balancer uses a special cookie to track the backend server instance for each request. When the load balancer receives a request, it first checks to see if this cookie is present in the request. If so, the load balancer sends the request to the application server specified in the cookie. If not, the load balancer sends the request to a server that is chosen based on the existing load balancing algorithm.

A cookie is inserted into the response for binding subsequent requests from the same user to that server. The validity of the cookie is based on the cookie expiration time, which is specified in the policy configuration.

For more information, see Enabling Duration-Based Session Stickiness in the Elastic Load Balancing Developer Guide .

Adds new instances to the load balancer.

Once the instance is registered, it starts receiving traffic and requests from the load balancer. Any instance that is not in any of the Availability Zones registered for the load balancer will be moved to the OutOfService state. It will move to the InService state when the Availability Zone is added to the load balancer.

When an instance registered with a load balancer is stopped and then restarted, the IP addresses associated with the instance changes. Elastic Load Balancing cannot recognize the new IP address, which prevents it from routing traffic to the instances. We recommend that you de-register your Amazon EC2 instances from your load balancer after you stop your instance, and then register the load balancer with your instance after you've restarted. To de-register your instances from load balancer, use DeregisterInstancesFromLoadBalancer action.

For more information, see De-register and Register Amazon EC2 Instances in the Elastic Load Balancing Developer Guide .

NOTE: In order for this call to be successful, you must provide the same account credentials as those that were used to create the load balancer.

NOTE: Completion of this API does not guarantee that operation has completed. Rather, it means that the request has been registered and the changes will happen shortly.

You can use DescribeLoadBalancers or DescribeInstanceHealth action to check the state of the newly registered instances.

Parameters:

getCachedResponseMetadata

ResponseMetadata getCachedResponseMetadata(AmazonWebServiceRequest request)

Returns additional metadata for a previously executed successful request, typically used for debugging issues where a service isn't acting as expected. This data isn't considered part of the result data returned by an operation, so it's available through this separate, diagnostic interface.

Response metadata is only cached for a limited period of time, so if you need to access this extra diagnostic information for an executed request, you should use this method to retrieve it as soon as possible after executing a request.

Parameters:

request - The originally executed request.

Returns:

The response metadata for the specified request, or null if none is available.
