2025/05/13 - Amazon Aurora DSQL - 4 updated api methods
Changes CreateMultiRegionClusters and DeleteMultiRegionClusters APIs marked as deprecated. Introduced new multi-Region clusters creation experience through multiRegionProperties parameter in CreateCluster API.

Request Syntax
client.create_cluster( deletionProtectionEnabled=True|False, tags={ 'string': 'string' }, clientToken='string', multiRegionProperties={ 'witnessRegion': 'string', 'clusters': [ 'string', ] } )
boolean
If enabled, you can't delete your cluster. You must first disable this property before you can delete your cluster.
dict
A map of key and value pairs to use to tag your cluster.
(string) --
Unique tag key, maximum 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8.
(string) --
Tag value, maximum 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8.
string
A unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. Idempotency ensures that an API request completes only once. With an idempotent request, if the original request completes successfully, the subsequent retries with the same client token return the result from the original successful request and they have no additional effect.
If you don't specify a client token, the Amazon Web Services SDK automatically generates one.
This field is autopopulated if not provided.
dict

The following IAM policy grants permissions for multi-Region operations.
The dsql:RemovePeerCluster permission uses a wildcard ARN pattern to simplify permission management during updates.
