Getting Started with AWS services in ChinaManaging AWS services in China

What Is AWS services in China?AWS services in China is the implementation of Amazon Web Services in the Beijing and Ningxia (China)Regions. Directly connected to domestic telecommunication networks, it's designed to provide theinfrastructure and network services necessary to support AWS technology.

AWS services in China provides computing resources and services that you can use to quickly and cost-effectively build applications. For example, you can rent a virtual server on AWS services in China thatyou can connect to, configure, secure, and run just as you would a physical server. But the virtual serverruns on top of a global network managed by AWS, and you pay for your virtual server only while itruns. Backed by AWS services in China, your virtual server can do things no physical server can, such asautomatically scaling into multiple servers when demand increases.

Using AWS services in China to build your Internet application is like purchasing electricity from a powercompany instead of running your own generator, and it provides many of the same benefits: capacityexactly matches need; you pay only for what you use; economies of scale result in lower costs; and theservice is provided by a vendor experienced in running large-scale networks.

You can run nearly anything on AWS services in China that you would run on physical hardware:websites, applications, databases, mobile apps, email campaigns, distributed data analysis, and mediastorage. The services are designed to work together so that you can build complete solutions, and manyof the most utilized AWS products are available in the China Regions.

The following topics will help you get started with AWS services in China.

Topics

• Managing AWS services in China (p. 2)

• Signup, Accounts, and Credentials (p. 3)

• Billing and Payment (p. 4)

• Using the Console (p. 5)

Managing AWS services in ChinaThere are several tools that you can use to create and manage AWS services in China resources.

• AWS Management Console – A graphical user interface that you access online at https://console.www.amazonaws.cn. The AWS Management Console is the fastest way to get started withAWS services in China; there is nothing to install. Some services, however, have features that can'tbe accessed from the console. For more information, see Using the Console (p. 5) or the servicedocumentation.

• AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) – A text-based tool that you install on your desktop. Withthe AWS CLI, you can manage and script against multiple AWS services in China resources directly fromthe command line. Some services also offer custom CLIs. For more information, see AWS CommandLine Tools (p. 170).

• Software Development Kits (SDKs) – Class libraries and tools that you add to your application soit can manage AWS services in China resources. AWS offers SDKs in a variety of programming andscripting languages. The SDKs are the easiest way to write applications that interface with AWSservices in China; they provide functions that you can call to authenticate your application's connectionto AWS services in China. For more information, see AWS SDKs (p. 170)

Getting Started with AWS services in ChinaSignup, Accounts, and Credentials

• Query APIs – Low-level APIs that are exposed online through service- and Region-specific endpoints(for example, https://dynamodb.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cn for the Beijing Region,and https://dynamodb.cn-northwest-1.amazonaws.com.cn for the Ningxia Region). Youcall API actions by using HTTP requests. The APIs reflect the latest functionality of each service. Ifyour application uses the API instead of an SDK, however, you must implement the functionality togenerate the proper signatures to authenticate your requests.

Signup, Accounts, and CredentialsTo use AWS services in China services, you need an account and credentials specific to AWS services inChina, the suite of Amazon Web Services available in the Beijing and Ningxia (China) Regions. Accountscreated for other AWS Regions won't work for AWS services in China. Similarly, AWS services in Chinaaccounts won't work in AWS Regions outside the Beijing and Ningxia Regions. To use services in anotherRegion, AWS services in China customers need to sign up for an account in that Region.

To comply with Chinese law and regulations, AWS services in China customers who want to make contentpublicly available via AWS services in China services are required to first file for Internet Content Provider(ICP) recordal with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Until ICP recordal is complete,AWS services in China customers are granted an Internal Access Account, which provides limited accessto AWS services in China features. AWS services in China customers who don't intend to publish contentpublicly aren't required to complete ICP recordal. These customers can get started right away by signingup for an Internal Access Account and using AWS services in China services for personal projects or forprojects internal to their organization. To use all of the AWS services in China features, customers need aFull Access Account. The two account types are described in more detail below.

SignupThe AWS Management Console walks you through the process of signing up for AWS services in China.The steps below provide a high-level overview of signup.

To sign up for AWS services in China:

1. Go to www.amazonaws.cn and register with AWS services in China.

2. Receive an Internal Access Account.

3. (Optional) Complete the ICP recordal process. This step is necessary for publishing content for publicconsumption. When you've completed ICP recordal, you'll receive a Full Access Account.

4. Receive your AWS services in China account credentials. The credentials consist of an account ID,access key ID, and secret access key. Note that you can't use your AWS services in China credentials toaccess any other AWS Region.

Internal Access AccountAn Internal Access Account provides limited access to AWS services in China services. Internal AccessAccounts are granted to AWS services in China customers who don't intend to host public contentdirectly from their AWS services in China accounts, and to customers who want to host public contentbut have not yet completed ICP recordal. With Internal Access Accounts, public access is restricted asfollows:

• In Amazon EC2, all common internet ports (except ports 22 and 3389) are blocked. Internal portsremain available.

• In Amazon S3, buckets are not allowed to serve content for public anonymous access, and pre-signedURL functionality is disabled.

Getting Started with AWS services in ChinaFull Access Account

Full Access AccountFull Access Accounts are granted to AWS services in China customers who have completed ICP recordal. AFull Access Account provides full access to AWS services in China features.

IAM CredentialsTo use the AWS services in China console, you must have credentials provided by AWS Identity andAccess Management (IAM). All users have to create IAM credentials during the sign-up process. When youfirst sign up for AWS services in China, you create an IAM user administrator. Then you can sign in to theAWS services in China console with your account ID.

The administrator has full access to manage AWS services in China resources. For example, as theadministrator, you can create additional IAM users by using the AWS services in China console. You canthen manage users and their permissions by assigning them to groups. For more information aboutusers, groups, and policies, see Working with Users and Groups. To learn more about IAM and aboutcredentials in AWS services in China, see AWS Identity and Access Management (p. 88).

If you forget your IAM user password, you can reset the password from the AWS ManagementConsole. AWS will send a password reset link to the email address that is associated this AWS account. Ifyou don't have access to that email, contact your administrator.

To reset your IAM user password:

• Use your AWS account ID or alias to begin signing in to the AWS Management Console at https://console.amazonaws.cn/.

• Choose Forgot password?.• If necessary, enter your account ID and user name. Then provide the CAPTCHA text and choose Send

email.• Check the email that is associated with your AWS account for a message from Amazon Web Services.

The email will come from an address ending in @amazonaws.cn. If you don't see the email in youraccount, check your spam folder. If you no longer have access to the email, contact your accountadministrator. If you are the administrator, contact AWS Support Center.

• Follow the directions in the email to reset your password. If your administrator has enabled an accountpassword policy, you must meet those complexity requirements. If you receive an error, contact youradministrator to learn about your specific requirements. For more information, see Setting an AccountPassword Policy for IAM Users in the IAM User Guide.

Billing and PaymentAWS services in China is priced and billed in local currency (CNY). Each month, AWS services in Chinasends an invoice to the email address of the account owner. You can also view your AWS services in Chinabill on the Bills page of the AWS Billing and Cost Management console. You use AWS services in Chinaresources first and then receive an invoice based on usage. You can then pay using either wire transfer orCorporate Bank Redirect.

Note that some features described in the AWS documentation may not be available in the current AWSservices in China release.

In the case of AWS Billing and Cost Management, the free pricing tier is included in the China (Ningxia)Region.

If you want to deposit reports into an Amazon S3 bucket, in your policy, you must specify 145026535362(instead of 386209384616) for the account ID. For more information, see Deposit Reports into anAmazon S3 Bucket in the AWS Billing and Cost Management User Guide.

Amazon API GatewayAmazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create, publish,maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale. With a few clicks in the AWS Management Console,you can create an API that acts as a "front door" for applications to access data, business logic, orfunctionality from your back-end services, such as workloads running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud(Amazon EC2), code running on AWS Lambda, or any web application.

Amazon API Gateway handles all the tasks involved in accepting and processing up to hundreds ofthousands of concurrent API calls, including traffic management, authorization and access control,monitoring, and API version management. Amazon API Gateway has no minimum fees or startup costs.You pay only for the API calls you receive and the amount of data transferred out.

Feature Availability and Implementation DifferencesThe AWS services in China implementation of Amazon API Gateway is unique in the following ways:

• To call API Gateway APIs in the Beijing and Ningxia Regions, you must use Beijing Region-specific orNingxia Region-specific endpoints.

• Edge-optimized APIs and edge-optimized custom domain names are not supported.• Filing for Internet Content Provider (ICP) recordal—If you want to service API requests in the Beijing

Region that can be accessed without authentication, you must obtain an ICP license. For informationabout filing for ICP recordal, see Billing and Payment (p. 4). You may also need to refile for ICPwhitelisting for API Gateway in the Ningxia Region even if you already filed for it in the Beijing Region.

• The following API Gateway features are either unavailable in the Beijing and Ningxia Regions or requirean ICP license:• API Gateway serves unauthenticated API requests only if the API owner’s Amazon AWS account

is associated with a valid ICP license. As a result, creating an API using a Lambda authorizer or noauthorizer requires an ICP license.

• You can configure an API using a custom authorizer or no authorizer, but the API can only beaccessed if your AWS services in China account is associated with an ICP license.

• You cannot use Alias A records for custom domain names. You must create a CNAME that points tothe regional custom domain endpoint.

• Support for AWS WAF is not available.• Amazon Cognito authorizers are not supported.• Java and Ruby SDK generation is not supported.• HTTP API private integrations with AWS Cloud Map are not supported.

Code Examples


Amazon CloudFrontAmazon CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN) service that securely delivers data, videos,applications, and APIs to customers, with low latency and high transfer speeds, in a developer-friendlyenvironment. When a user requests content that you're serving with CloudFront, the request is routed tothe edge location that provides the lowest latency (time delay), so that content is delivered with the bestpossible performance.

CloudFront China uses a network of three edge locations in the following cities: Beijing, Zhongwei, andShanghai. These points of presence (POPs) are connected by a private backbone directly to the AWSChina (Beijing) Region operated by Sinnet and the AWS China (Ningxia) Region operated by NWCD.

Topics





Region AvailabilityAmazon CloudFront is available in the following regions in China:

• Beijing Region

• Ningxia Region

Feature Availability and Implementation DifferencesThe AWS services in China implementation of Amazon CloudFront is unique in the following ways:

• You can’t use the default CloudFront domain, *.cloudfront.cn, to serve content. You must add analternate domain name, also known as a CNAME, to your CloudFront distributions, and then use thatdomain name in the URLs for your content. You also must have an ICP registration. In addition, just aswith the global CloudFront service, to serve content over HTTPS, you must use an SSL/TLS certificatewith your alternate domain name.

NoteAmazon CloudFront in the China Regions currently does not support AWS Certificate Manager.You must get an SSL/TLS certificate from a different third-party certificate authority (CA) andthen upload it to the IAM certificate store. For more information, see Importing an SSL/TLSCertificate in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.

• By using the CloudFront API, you can view the ICP recordal status for each CNAME in a CloudFrontdistribution: APPROVED, SUSPENDED, or PENDING. The ICP recordal status is also displayed in theconsole for AWS services in China customers. For more information, see CNAME Status (General Tab)in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide and AliasICPRecordal in the Amazon CloudFront APIReference.

• When you use an Amazon S3 bucket as a CloudFront origin, use the following configuration:

• If the S3 bucket is located inside the China Regions, use one of the following formats.

• If your S3 bucket is not a website endpoint, use the following format: bucket-name.s3.region.amazonaws.com.cn.

• If your S3 bucket is a website endpoint, use the following format: bucket-name.s3-website.region.amazonaws.com.cn.

• When you specify Amazon S3 origins, region can be one of the following:

• For the Beijing Region: cn-north-1.

• For the Ningxia Region: cn-northwest-1.

• Forgot password - If an IAM user (including the administrator user) in the Beijing and Ningxia Regionsforgets their password, they can reset the password from the AWS Management Console. AWSwill send a password reset link to the email address that is associated with the AWS account.Administrators cannot use a policy to deny access to this feature because the requestor is not signedin to AWS. However, each request is stored as a CloudTrail entry. For more information, see IAMCredentials (p. 4).

• No hardware or SMS MFA—The Beijing and Ningxia Regions do not support using hardware orSMS multi-factor authentication (MFA) for IAM users. The Regions do support using virtual MFA. Forinformation about using virtual MFA, see Enabling a Virtual Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) Device.

• Web identity federation—Some web identity providers (for example, social media platforms) mightnot be available in the Beijing and Ningxia Regions.

• Policy names—IAM policy names can contain only the following Unicode characters: horizontal tab(x09), linefeed (x0A), carriage return (x0D), and characters in the range x20 to xFF. In practice, thismeans that you can't use Chinese characters in policy names.

• Service principals in policies—In IAM policies where the principal is a service (for example, AmazonEC2), the service principal name has the following format, with "service" replaced by the name of theservice:

service.amazonaws.com.cn

The service aims to maximize benefits of scale and to pass thosebenefits on to developers.


Region AvailabilityAmazon S3 is available in the following regions in China:


Feature Availability and Implementation DifferencesThe AWS services in China implementation of Amazon S3 is unique in the following ways:

• Creating an AWS account

To publish content in the Beijing and Ningxia Regions, you must sign up for an AWS services in Chinaaccount, which is specific to the Beijing and Ningxia Regions. This account will not work in other AWS

133


Regions, and an account that was created in a different Region will not work in the China Regions. Forinformation about signing up for the Beijing Region, see Signup, Accounts, and Credentials (p. 3).

• Filing for Internet Content Provider (ICP) recordal:

If you want to publish content in the China (Beijing) or China (Ningxia) Regions that can be readwithout authentication, you must obtain an ICP license. For information about filing for ICP recordal,see Billing and Payment (p. 4).

• If you want to deposit reports into an Amazon S3 bucket, in your policy, you must specify145026535362 (instead of 386209384616) for the account ID. For more information, see Example 8:Deposit Reports into an Amazon S3 Bucket in the AWS Billing and Cost Management User Guide.

• The following Amazon S3 features are either unavailable in the China Regions or require an ICP license:

• Amazon S3 objects honor anonymous GET requests only if the object owner’s AWS services in Chinaaccount is associated with a valid ICP license. As a result, hosting a static website from an Amazon S3bucket and using pre-signed URLs require an ICP license.

• Amazon S3 supports both the Signature Version 4 and Signature Version 2; however, onlySignature Version 4 is supported in the China Regions. For information about Signature Version 4authorization headers, see Authenticating Requests (AWS Signature Version 4).

• Website hosting:

• You can configure your bucket to host a static website, but the website can be viewed publicly (byusing an anonymous request) only if your AWS services in China account is associated with an ICPlicense.

• Support in Amazon S3 for root domain support relies on Amazon Route 53. Because Route 53 isnot currently available in the Beijing and Ningxia Regions, information about root domain supportand the corresponding walkthrough is not valid. For more information about root domain supportand the walkthrough, see Hosting a Static Website on Amazon S3 and Example: Setting Up aStatic Website Using a Custom Domain in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Developer Guide.

• Presigned URLs work only if the resource owner has an ICP license.

Your request must provide credentials explicitly. Any other form of request is considered anonymous,including the presigned URL. Anonymous requests are allowed only if the resource owner has an ICPlicense.

Because a signing key in Signature Version 4 is valid for only seven days, presigned URLs are alsovalid for up to seven days.

• Any copy operation between the China Regions and AWS Regions outside of China is not supported.

• Cross-region replication (CRR) is not supported between the China Regions and AWS Regions outsideof China.

• Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration is not supported in the Beijing and Ningxia Regions.

• Support for BitTorrent in Amazon S3 is not available in the Beijing and Ningxia Regions.

• Access to Amazon S3 over Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is not supported in the Beijing andNingxia Regions.

Getting Started with AWS services in ChinaEndpoints

Endpoints and ARNs for AWSservices in China

To access AWS services and resources, you use endpoints and Amazon Resource Names (ARNs).

EndpointsTo connect programmatically to an AWS services in China, you use an endpoint. An endpoint is the URLof the entry point for an AWS service. For example, dynamodb.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cnis the endpoint for the Amazon DynamoDB service in the Beijing Region, and dynamodb.cn-northwest-1.amazonaws.com.cn is the endpoint for Amazon DynamoDB in the Ningxia Region. TheAWS SDKs and the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) automatically use the default endpoint for eachservice in an AWS Region. But you can specify another endpoint for your API requests.

For a complete list of endpoints in China Regions, see the following topics:

• Beijing Region Endpoints (p. 155)• Ningxia Region Endpoints (p. 162)

For information about endpoints, see AWS Service Endpoints in the Amazon Web Services GeneralReference.

Amazon Resource Names (ARNs)Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) uniquely identify AWS resources. You use an ARN to specify a resourceacross all of AWS, such as in AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies, Amazon RelationalDatabase Service (Amazon RDS) tags, and API calls.

For information about ARNs in the Beijing and Ningxia Regions, see ARNs for AWS services inChina (p. 169).

For general information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) in the Amazon Web ServicesGeneral Reference.

Beijing Region Endpoints• The endpoint domain for both the Beijing and Ningxia Regions is amazonaws.com.cn.• For an endpoint in the Beijing Region, the Region value should be cn-north-1.
