问题
I need to monitor my infrastructure on AWS. For this, I am writing boto3 functions to know the limits of my account. However, I am not able to achieve the following things:
- Limit of EBS Volumes (Not able to find any method from where I can know the max number of Volumes I can create)
- Limit of total Number of Security Groups
- Limit of Security rules per Security group
- Max number of Elastic IPs. Since I have different AWS accounts and limits vary for each of these accounts. I need to take it dynamically from each account.
回答1:
It appears that Trusted Advisor has an API for providing limit checks. Also, specific services have API calls available to describe limits.
Take a look at awslimitchecker. It seems to provide a large number of limit checks. You could even look at the awslimitchecker code to see how it obtains the limits.

Basically, AWS show you the VPC services limit here , but some soft limit can be lifted by emailing a request to AWS.
EBS soft limit is here.
If your real concern is the cost, then (eg.for those who host web page in AWS without CDN), you should create a billing alarm as describe here.

We can achieve this by using trust advisor service. you only need to monitor the result by direct API call for Trust advisor like service limits in my case. https://console.aws.amazon.com/trustedadvisor/home?#/category/performance?checkId=eW7HH0l7J9
