How to configure AWS CLI for an account for multiple regions

Question

我正在使用AWS CLI在不同区域中设置ECS集群，因此如何在两个不同区域的实例上配置AWS CLI。

Answer 1

You can simply specify the region the AWS CLI should operate on. Either use the command line parameter --region , like:

aws --region us-east-1 ecs ...

And alternative is to use the environment variable AWS_DEFAULT_REGION , like:

AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 aws ecs ...

A third option would be to configure multiple profiles for the AWS CLI in ~/.aws/config and set a different region for each profile.
