最新的Java SDK有EC2MetadataUtils:

在Java中:

import com.amazonaws.util.EC2MetadataUtils;
String myId = EC2MetadataUtils.getInstanceId();

在Scala中:

import com.amazonaws.util.EC2MetadataUtils
val myid = EC2MetadataUtils.getInstanceId

Python:

import boto.utils
region=boto.utils.get_instance_metadata()['local-hostname'].split('.')[1]

这可以归结为一句话:

python -c "import boto.utils; print boto.utils.get_instance_metadata()['local-hostname'].split('.')[1]"

除了local_hostname，你还可以使用public_hostname，或者:

boto.utils.get_instance_metadata()['placement']['availability-zone'][:-1]

我从http api为EC2元数据编写的c# .net类。 我将根据需要构建它的功能。如果你喜欢，你可以用它。

using Amazon;
using System.Net;

namespace AT.AWS
{
    public static class HttpMetaDataAPI
    {
        public static bool TryGetPublicIP(out string publicIP)
        {
            return TryGetMetaData("public-ipv4", out publicIP);
        }
        public static bool TryGetPrivateIP(out string privateIP)
        {
            return TryGetMetaData("local-ipv4", out privateIP);
        }
        public static bool TryGetAvailabilityZone(out string availabilityZone)
        {
            return TryGetMetaData("placement/availability-zone", out availabilityZone);
        }

        /// <summary>

        /// </summary>

        /// <remarks>Each AWS service has a different endpoint url for each region</remarks>
        /// <returns>True if the operation was succesful, otherwise false</returns>
        public static bool TryGetServiceEndpointUrl(string serviceName, out string serviceEndpointStringUrl)
        {
            // start by figuring out what region this instance is in.
            RegionEndpoint endpoint;
            if (TryGetRegionEndpoint(out endpoint))
            {
                // now that we know the region, we can get details about the requested service in that region
                var details = endpoint.GetEndpointForService(serviceName);
                serviceEndpointStringUrl = (details.HTTPS ? "https://" : "http://") + details.Hostname;
                return true;
            }
            // satisfy the compiler by assigning a value to serviceEndpointStringUrl
            serviceEndpointStringUrl = null;
            return false;
        }
        public static bool TryGetRegionEndpoint(out RegionEndpoint endpoint)
        {
            // we can get figure out the region end point from the availability zone
            // that this instance is in, so we start by getting the availability zone:
            string availabilityZone;
            if (TryGetAvailabilityZone(out availabilityZone))
            {
                // name of the availability zone is <nameOfRegionEndpoint>[a|b|c etc]
                // so just take the name of the availability zone and chop off the last letter
                var nameOfRegionEndpoint = availabilityZone.Substring(0, availabilityZone.Length - 1);
                endpoint = RegionEndpoint.GetBySystemName(nameOfRegionEndpoint);
                return true;
            }
            // satisfy the compiler by assigning a value to endpoint
            endpoint = RegionEndpoint.USWest2;
            return false;
        }
        /// <summary>

        static bool TryGetMetaData(string name, out string result)
        {
            result = null;
            try { result = new WebClient().DownloadString("http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/" + name); return true; }

对于AWS elastic beanstalk eb cli，请执行eb tags——list

你可以试试这个:

#!/bin/bash
aws_instance=$(wget -q -O- http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id)
aws_region=$(wget -q -O- http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/hostname)
aws_region=${aws_region#*.}
aws_region=${aws_region%%.*}
aws_zone=`ec2-describe-instances $aws_instance --region $aws_region`
aws_zone=`expr match "$aws_zone" ".*\($aws_region[a-z]\)"`

PHP的替代方法:

$instance = json_decode(file_get_contents('http://169.254.169.254/latest/dynamic/instance-identity/document'),true);
$id = $instance['instanceId'];
print_r($instance);

这将提供大量关于实例的数据，所有数据都很好地打包在一个数组中，没有外部依赖。 因为这是一个从未失败或延迟的请求，所以这样做应该是安全的，否则我将使用curl()
