Workflows

provision-db-instance
Create a DB instance and wait for it to become available.
Creates a DB instance with the supplied engine, instance class and storage, then polls DescribeDBInstances until the instance status is available.
2 steps inputs: allocatedStorage, dbInstanceClass, dbInstanceIdentifier, engine, masterUserPassword, masterUsername outputs: endpointAddress, endpointPort, instanceId, status
1
createInstance
Submit the request to create the DB instance with the supplied engine, instance class, master credentials and allocated storage.
2
pollInstance
Describe the DB instance and inspect its status. While the instance is still creating, modifying or backing-up the workflow loops back to poll again; once it is available the flow ends.

  title: Amazon RDS Provision a DB Instance
  summary: Create a DB instance and poll until it reports the available status.
  description: >-
    Provisions a new Amazon RDS DB instance and then waits for it to finish
    provisioning. The workflow submits the create request, captures the returned
    instance identifier and initial status, and then polls the describe action
    until the DBInstanceStatus reaches available, branching back into the poll
    while the instance is still creating, modifying, or backing-up. Every step
    spells out its request inline so the flow can be read and executed without
    opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
