string
A specific platform version to return details for.
Example: 3
string
The database engine to return platform version details for.
Valid Values:
aurora-mysql
aurora-postgresql
list
This parameter isn't currently supported.
(dict) --
A filter name and value pair that is used to return a more specific list of results from a describe operation. Filters can be used to match a set of resources by specific criteria, such as IDs. The filters supported by a describe operation are documented with the describe operation.
The following actions can be filtered:
DescribeDBClusterBacktracks
DescribeDBClusterEndpoints
DescribeDBClusters
DescribeDBInstances
DescribeDBRecommendations
DescribeDBShardGroups
DescribePendingMaintenanceActions
Name (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The name of the filter. Filter names are case-sensitive.
Values (list) -- [REQUIRED]
One or more filter values. Filter values are case-sensitive.
(string) --
boolean
Specifies whether to return only the default platform versions for each engine. The default platform version is the version used for new DB clusters.
boolean
Specifies whether to also include platform versions which are no longer in use.
integer
The maximum number of records to include in the response. If more than the MaxRecords value is available, a pagination token called a marker is included in the response so you can retrieve the remaining results.
Default: 20
Constraints: Minimum 1, maximum 200.
string
An optional pagination token provided by a previous request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the marker, up to the value specified by MaxRecords.

The description of the serverless platform.
Engine (string) --
The name of the database engine.
ServerlessV2FeaturesSupport (dict) --

MinCapacity (float) --
If the minimum capacity is 0 ACUs, the engine version or platform version supports the automatic pause/resume feature of Aurora Serverless v2.
MaxCapacity (float) --
Specifies the upper Aurora Serverless v2 capacity limit for a particular engine version or platform version. Depending on the engine version, the maximum capacity for an Aurora Serverless v2 cluster might be 256 or 128.

The status of the serverless platform. Valid statuses are the following:
enabled - The platform version is in use.
disabled - The platform version is not in use.
