This AWS Lambda function will send you once a day a recap email with the list of the running EC2/RDS instances on all AWS region for a giver AWS Account. I'm using this for non-prod, lab, sandbox, and personal AWS accounts, to get a kindly reminder of what I've left running. 💸

• List running EC2 instances across all AWS Regions.
  • Check name, instance-id, instance_type, key_name, region, launch_time
• List running RDS instances across all AWS Regions.
  • Check db_instance_name, db_engine, db_type, db_storage, region, launch_time
• White list capability using the iw tag
• Send summary by email once a day
• Serverless Architecture using Lambda, Lambda layer and SES

• Verify your sender SES email
• Create <your_project_name>-artifacts s3 bucket (default is instance-watcher-artifacts)

Change emails settings in Makefile or use command-line

Nb: Recipients are space-delimited

RECIPIENTS := [email protected] [email protected]
SENDER := [email protected]

You will need to validate email received from AWS SES.

    $ make layer
    $ make package project=<your_project_name>
    $ make deploy \
            ENV=<your_env_name> \
            AWSREGION=<your_aws_region> \
            PROJECT=<your_project_name> \
            [email protected] \
            RECIPIENTS='[email protected] [email protected]'

Nb: Use emails in command line is optional if your already setup the Makefile

    $ make tear-down

If you want to whitelist a specific EC2 instance to be hidden from the daily report, you will need to add the following tag to the EC2 instance.

• Add SES setup built-in
• Whitelist for RDS Instances
• Add unit tests
• Multi-Account Support
• Add Instance Profile column
• Add pricing column
