Table: aws_dax_parameter_group - Query AWS DAX Parameter Groups using SQL

The AWS DAX Parameter Group is a resource that provides a container for database engine parameter values that can be applied to one or more DAX clusters. These parameters act as a means to manage the behavior of the DAX instances within the cluster. In essence, it allows you to establish configurations and settings for your DAX databases, providing customization and control over the DAX environment.

Table Usage Guide

The aws_dax_parameter_group table in Steampipe provides you with information about Parameter Groups within AWS DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX). This table enables you, as a DevOps engineer, to query Parameter Group-specific details, including the group name, ARN, description, and parameter settings. You can utilize this table to gather insights on Parameter Groups, such as their configurations, associated parameters, and more. The schema outlines the various attributes of the DAX Parameter Group for you, including the parameter group name, ARN, description, and associated parameters.

Examples

Basic info

Gain insights into the regions and their associated descriptions within your AWS DAX parameter groups. This can be useful to understand the geographical distribution and purpose of your parameter groups.

select
parameter_group_name,
description,
region
from
aws_dax_parameter_group;
select
parameter_group_name,
description,
region
from
aws_dax_parameter_group;

Get cluster details associated with the parameter group

Discover the segments that are linked to a specific parameter group in your DAX clusters. This is useful for assessing the configuration of your clusters and understanding their current state.

select
p.parameter_group_name,
c.cluster_name,
c.node_type,
c.status
from
aws_dax_parameter_group as p,
aws_dax_cluster as c
where
c.parameter_group ->> 'ParameterGroupName' = p.parameter_group_name;
select
p.parameter_group_name,
c.cluster_name,
c.node_type,
c.status
from
aws_dax_parameter_group as p,
aws_dax_cluster as c
where
json_extract(c.parameter_group, '$.ParameterGroupName') = p.parameter_group_name;

Export

This table is available as a standalone Exporter CLI. Steampipe exporters are stand-alone binaries that allow you to extract data using Steampipe plugins without a database.

You can download the tarball for your platform from the Releases page, but it is simplest to install them with the steampipe_export_installer.sh script:

/bin/sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://steampipe.io/install/export.sh)" -- aws

You can pass the configuration to the command with the --config argument:

steampipe_export_aws --config '<your_config>' aws_dax_parameter_group
