AWS aurora-dsql documentation change

Service: aurora-dsql · 2025-05-01 · Documentation medium

File: aurora-dsql/latest/userguide/programming-with.md

Summary

Expanded programmatic access documentation including API security requirements (digital signatures) and tool support details

Security assessment

Added explicit documentation about requiring valid digital signatures for API requests, which is a standard security practice for authentication. However, this appears to be routine documentation improvement rather than addressing a specific vulnerability.

+## Accessing Amazon Aurora DSQL programmatically
+
+Aurora DSQL provides you with the following tools to manage your Aurora DSQL resources programmatically:
+
+**AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI)**
+    
+
+You can create and manage your resources by using the AWS CLI in a command-line shell. The AWS CLI provides direct access to the APIs for AWS services, such as Aurora DSQL. For syntax and examples for the commands for Aurora DSQL, see [dsql](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/aurora-dsql/latest/APIReference/API_CreateCluster.html) in the _AWS CLI Command Reference_.
+
+**AWS software development kits (SDKs)**
+    
+
+AWS provides SDKs for many popular technologies and programming languages. They make it easier for you to call AWS services from within your applications in that language or technology. For more information about these SDKs, see [Tools for developing and managing applications on AWS](https://aws.amazon.com/developer/tools/).
+
+**Aurora DSQL API**
+    
+
+This API is another programming interface for Aurora DSQL. When using this API, you must format every HTTPS request correctly and add a valid digital signature to every request. For more information, see [Aurora DSQL API reference](./CHAP_api_reference.html).
+
+**AWS CloudFormation**
+    
+
+During Preview, Aurora DSQL doesn't support AWS CloudFormation.
