Set the capacity of an Aurora Serverless DB cluster to a specific value.
Aurora Serverless scales seamlessly based on the workload on the DB cluster. In some cases, the capacity might not scale fast enough to meet a sudden change in workload, such as a large number of new transactions. Call ModifyCurrentDBClusterCapacity
to set the capacity explicitly.
After this call sets the DB cluster capacity, Aurora Serverless can automatically scale the DB cluster based on the cooldown period for scaling up and the cooldown period for scaling down.
For more information about Aurora Serverless, see Using Amazon Aurora Serverless in the Amazon Aurora User Guide .
Warning
If you call ModifyCurrentDBClusterCapacity
with the default TimeoutAction
, connections that prevent Aurora Serverless from finding a scaling point might be dropped. For more information about scaling points, see Autoscaling for Aurora Serverless in the Amazon Aurora User Guide .
Note
This action only applies to Aurora DB clusters.

--db-cluster-identifier
(string)
The DB cluster identifier for the cluster being modified. This parameter isn’t case-sensitive.
Constraints:
Must match the identifier of an existing DB cluster.
--capacity
(integer)
The DB cluster capacity.
When you change the capacity of a paused Aurora Serverless DB cluster, it automatically resumes.
Constraints:
For Aurora MySQL, valid capacity values are
1
,2
,4
,8
,16
,32
,64
,128
, and256
.For Aurora PostgreSQL, valid capacity values are
2
,4
,8
,16
,32
,64
,192
, and384
.
--seconds-before-timeout
(integer)
The amount of time, in seconds, that Aurora Serverless tries to find a scaling point to perform seamless scaling before enforcing the timeout action. The default is 300.
Value must be from 10 through 600.
--timeout-action
(string)
The action to take when the timeout is reached, either
ForceApplyCapacityChange
orRollbackCapacityChange
.
ForceApplyCapacityChange
, the default, sets the capacity to the specified value as soon as possible.
RollbackCapacityChange
ignores the capacity change if a scaling point isn’t found in the timeout period.
--cli-input-json
| --cli-input-yaml
(string)
Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton
. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml
.
--generate-cli-skeleton
(string)
Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input
, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json
. Similarly, if provided yaml-input
it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml
. If provided with the value output
, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
DBClusterIdentifier -> (string)
A user-supplied DB cluster identifier. This identifier is the unique key that identifies a DB cluster.
PendingCapacity -> (integer)
A value that specifies the capacity that the DB cluster scales to next.
CurrentCapacity -> (integer)
The current capacity of the DB cluster.
SecondsBeforeTimeout -> (integer)
The number of seconds before a call to
ModifyCurrentDBClusterCapacity
times out.
TimeoutAction -> (string)
The timeout action of a call to
ModifyCurrentDBClusterCapacity
, eitherForceApplyCapacityChange
orRollbackCapacityChange
.
