AWS CloudFormation
AWS CloudFormation allows you to create and manage AWS infrastructure deployments predictably and repeatedly. You can use AWS CloudFormation to leverage AWS products, such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, Amazon Elastic Block Store, Amazon Simple Notification Service, Elastic Load Balancing, and Auto Scaling to build highly-reliable, highly scalable, cost-effective applications without creating or configuring the underlying AWS infrastructure.

With AWS CloudFormation, you declare all of your resources and dependencies in a template file. The template defines a collection of resources as a single unit called a stack. AWS CloudFormation creates and deletes all member resources of the stack together and manages all dependencies between the resources for you.

For more information about AWS CloudFormation, see the AWS CloudFormation Product Page.

Amazon CloudFormation makes use of other AWS products. If you need additional technical information about a specific AWS product, you can find the product's technical documentation at docs.aws.amazon.com.

  - setEndpoint
```
@Deprecated
void setEndpoint(String endpoint)
```
    Deprecated. use AwsClientBuilder#setEndpointConfiguration(AwsClientBuilder.EndpointConfiguration) for example: builder.setEndpointConfiguration(new EndpointConfiguration(endpoint, signingRegion));
    
    Overrides the default endpoint for this client ("https://cloudformation.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"). Callers can use this method to control which AWS region they want to work with.
    Callers can pass in just the endpoint (ex: "cloudformation.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the protocol (ex: "https://cloudformation.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"). If the protocol is not specified here, the default protocol from this client's ClientConfiguration will be used, which by default is HTTPS.
    For more information on using AWS regions with the AWS SDK for Java, and a complete list of all available endpoints for all AWS services, see: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?externalID=3912
    This method is not threadsafe. An endpoint should be configured when the client is created and before any service requests are made. Changing it afterwards creates inevitable race conditions for any service requests in transit or retrying.
    
    Parameters:
    
    endpoint - The endpoint (ex: "cloudformation.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the protocol (ex: "https://cloudformation.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") of the region specific AWS endpoint this client will communicate with.
  - setRegion
```
@Deprecated
void setRegion(Region region)
```
    Deprecated. use AwsClientBuilder#setRegion(String)
    
    An alternative to setEndpoint(String), sets the regional endpoint for this client's service calls. Callers can use this method to control which AWS region they want to work with.
    By default, all service endpoints in all regions use the https protocol. To use http instead, specify it in the ClientConfiguration supplied at construction.
    This method is not threadsafe. A region should be configured when the client is created and before any service requests are made. Changing it afterwards creates inevitable race conditions for any service requests in transit or retrying.
    
    Parameters:
    
    region - The region this client will communicate with. See Region.getRegion(com.amazonaws.regions.Regions) for accessing a given region. Must not be null and must be a region where the service is available.
    
    See Also:
    
    Region.getRegion(com.amazonaws.regions.Regions), Region.createClient(Class, com.amazonaws.auth.AWSCredentialsProvider, ClientConfiguration), Region.isServiceSupported(String)
  - cancelUpdateStack
```
CancelUpdateStackResult cancelUpdateStack(CancelUpdateStackRequest cancelUpdateStackRequest)
```
    Cancels an update on the specified stack. If the call completes successfully, the stack rolls back the update and reverts to the previous stack configuration.
    
    You can cancel only stacks that are in the UPDATE_IN_PROGRESS state.
    
    Parameters:
    
    cancelUpdateStackRequest - The input for the CancelUpdateStack action.
    
    Returns:
    
    Result of the CancelUpdateStack operation returned by the service.
    
    Throws:
    
    TokenAlreadyExistsException - A client request token already exists.
    
    See Also:
    
    AWS API Documentation
  - continueUpdateRollback
```
ContinueUpdateRollbackResult continueUpdateRollback(ContinueUpdateRollbackRequest continueUpdateRollbackRequest)
```
    For a specified stack that is in the UPDATE_ROLLBACK_FAILED state, continues rolling it back to the UPDATE_ROLLBACK_COMPLETE state. Depending on the cause of the failure, you can manually fix the error and continue the rollback. By continuing the rollback, you can return your stack to a working state (the UPDATE_ROLLBACK_COMPLETE state), and then try to update the stack again.
    
    A stack goes into the UPDATE_ROLLBACK_FAILED state when AWS CloudFormation cannot roll back all changes after a failed stack update. For example, you might have a stack that is rolling back to an old database instance that was deleted outside of AWS CloudFormation. Because AWS CloudFormation doesn't know the database was deleted, it assumes that the database instance still exists and attempts to roll back to it, causing the update rollback to fail.
    
    Parameters:
    
    continueUpdateRollbackRequest - The input for the ContinueUpdateRollback action.
    
    Returns:
    
    Result of the ContinueUpdateRollback operation returned by the service.
    
    Throws:
    
    TokenAlreadyExistsException - A client request token already exists.
    
    See Also:
    
    AWS API Documentation
  - createChangeSet
```
CreateChangeSetResult createChangeSet(CreateChangeSetRequest createChangeSetRequest)
```
    Creates a list of changes that will be applied to a stack so that you can review the changes before executing them. You can create a change set for a stack that doesn't exist or an existing stack. If you create a change set for a stack that doesn't exist, the change set shows all of the resources that AWS CloudFormation will create. If you create a change set for an existing stack, AWS CloudFormation compares the stack's information with the information that you submit in the change set and lists the differences. Use change sets to understand which resources AWS CloudFormation will create or change, and how it will change resources in an existing stack, before you create or update a stack.
    
    To create a change set for a stack that doesn't exist, for the ChangeSetType parameter, specify CREATE. To create a change set for an existing stack, specify UPDATE for the ChangeSetType parameter. After the CreateChangeSet call successfully completes, AWS CloudFormation starts creating the change set. To check the status of the change set or to review it, use the DescribeChangeSet action.
    
    When you are satisfied with the changes the change set will make, execute the change set by using the ExecuteChangeSet action. AWS CloudFormation doesn't make changes until you execute the change set.
    
    Parameters:
    
    createChangeSetRequest - The input for the CreateChangeSet action.
    
    Returns:
    
    Result of the CreateChangeSet operation returned by the service.
    
    Throws:
    
    AlreadyExistsException - The resource with the name requested already exists.
    
    InsufficientCapabilitiesException - The template contains resources with capabilities that weren't specified in the Capabilities parameter.
    
    LimitExceededException - The quota for the resource has already been reached.
    
    For information on stack set limitations, see Limitations of StackSets.

ExecuteChangeSetResult executeChangeSet(ExecuteChangeSetRequest executeChangeSetRequest)
```
    Updates a stack using the input information that was provided when the specified change set was created. After the call successfully completes, AWS CloudFormation starts updating the stack. Use the DescribeStacks action to view the status of the update.
    
    When you execute a change set, AWS CloudFormation deletes all other change sets associated with the stack because they aren't valid for the updated stack.
    
    If a stack policy is associated with the stack, AWS CloudFormation enforces the policy during the update. You can't specify a temporary stack policy that overrides the current policy.
    
    Parameters:
    
    executeChangeSetRequest - The input for the ExecuteChangeSet action.
    
    Returns:
    
    Result of the ExecuteChangeSet operation returned by the service.
    
    Throws:
    
    InvalidChangeSetStatusException - The specified change set can't be used to update the stack. For example, the change set status might be CREATE_IN_PROGRESS, or the stack status might be UPDATE_IN_PROGRESS.
    
    ChangeSetNotFoundException - The specified change set name or ID doesn't exit. To view valid change sets for a stack, use the ListChangeSets action.
    
    InsufficientCapabilitiesException - The template contains resources with capabilities that weren't specified in the Capabilities parameter.
    
    TokenAlreadyExistsException - A client request token already exists.

  - updateStackInstances
```
UpdateStackInstancesResult updateStackInstances(UpdateStackInstancesRequest updateStackInstancesRequest)
```
    Updates the parameter values for stack instances for the specified accounts, within the specified regions. A stack instance refers to a stack in a specific account and region.
    
    You can only update stack instances in regions and accounts where they already exist; to create additional stack instances, use CreateStackInstances.
    
    During stack set updates, any parameters overridden for a stack instance are not updated, but retain their overridden value.
    
    You can only update the parameter values that are specified in the stack set; to add or delete a parameter itself, use UpdateStackSet to update the stack set template. If you add a parameter to a template, before you can override the parameter value specified in the stack set you must first use UpdateStackSet to update all stack instances with the updated template and parameter value specified in the stack set. Once a stack instance has been updated with the new parameter, you can then override the parameter value using UpdateStackInstances.
    
    Parameters:
    
    updateStackInstancesRequest -
    
    Returns:
    
    Result of the UpdateStackInstances operation returned by the service.
    
    Throws:
    
    StackSetNotFoundException - The specified stack set doesn't exist.
    
    StackInstanceNotFoundException - The specified stack instance doesn't exist.
    
    OperationInProgressException - Another operation is currently in progress for this stack set. Only one operation can be performed for a stack set at a given time.
    
    OperationIdAlreadyExistsException - The specified operation ID already exists.
    
    StaleRequestException - Another operation has been performed on this stack set since the specified operation was performed.
    
    InvalidOperationException - The specified operation isn't valid.
    
    See Also:
    
    AWS API Documentation
  - updateStackSet
```
UpdateStackSetResult updateStackSet(UpdateStackSetRequest updateStackSetRequest)
```
    Updates the stack set, and associated stack instances in the specified accounts and regions.
    
    Even if the stack set operation created by updating the stack set fails (completely or partially, below or above a specified failure tolerance), the stack set is updated with your changes. Subsequent CreateStackInstances calls on the specified stack set use the updated stack set.
    
    Parameters:
    
    updateStackSetRequest -
    
    Returns:
    
    Result of the UpdateStackSet operation returned by the service.
    
    Throws:
    
    StackSetNotFoundException - The specified stack set doesn't exist.
    
    OperationInProgressException - Another operation is currently in progress for this stack set. Only one operation can be performed for a stack set at a given time.
    
    OperationIdAlreadyExistsException - The specified operation ID already exists.
    
    StaleRequestException - Another operation has been performed on this stack set since the specified operation was performed.
    
    InvalidOperationException - The specified operation isn't valid.
    
    StackInstanceNotFoundException - The specified stack instance doesn't exist.

  - updateTerminationProtection
```
UpdateTerminationProtectionResult updateTerminationProtection(UpdateTerminationProtectionRequest updateTerminationProtectionRequest)
```
    Updates termination protection for the specified stack. If a user attempts to delete a stack with termination protection enabled, the operation fails and the stack remains unchanged. For more information, see Protecting a Stack From Being Deleted in the AWS CloudFormation User Guide.
    
    For nested stacks, termination protection is set on the root stack and cannot be changed directly on the nested stack.
    
    Parameters:
    
    updateTerminationProtectionRequest -
    
    Returns:
    
    Result of the UpdateTerminationProtection operation returned by the service.

  - validateTemplate
```
ValidateTemplateResult validateTemplate(ValidateTemplateRequest validateTemplateRequest)
```
    Validates a specified template. AWS CloudFormation first checks if the template is valid JSON. If it isn't, AWS CloudFormation checks if the template is valid YAML. If both these checks fail, AWS CloudFormation returns a template validation error.
    
    Parameters:
    
    validateTemplateRequest - The input for ValidateTemplate action.
    
    Returns:
    
    Result of the ValidateTemplate operation returned by the service.

  - shutdown
```
void shutdown()
```
    Shuts down this client object, releasing any resources that might be held open. This is an optional method, and callers are not expected to call it, but can if they want to explicitly release any open resources. Once a client has been shutdown, it should not be used to make any more requests.
  - getCachedResponseMetadata
```
ResponseMetadata getCachedResponseMetadata(AmazonWebServiceRequest request)
```
    Returns additional metadata for a previously executed successful request, typically used for debugging issues where a service isn't acting as expected. This data isn't considered part of the result data returned by an operation, so it's available through this separate, diagnostic interface.
    Response metadata is only cached for a limited period of time, so if you need to access this extra diagnostic information for an executed request, you should use this method to retrieve it as soon as possible after executing a request.
    
    Parameters:
    
    request - The originally executed request.
    
    Returns:
    
    The response metadata for the specified request, or null if none is available.
