The AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) is a versatile open source tool that facilitates interaction with AWS services through command-line commands within your terminal. With minimal setup, the AWS CLI empowers you to execute commands that replicate the functionality available in the web-based AWS Management Console, all from your terminal program:
Linux Shells: You can use common shell programs like bash, zsh, and tcsh on Linux or macOS to run AWS CLI commands, making it ideal for scripting and automating AWS tasks.
Remote Usage: AWS CLI commands can also be executed remotely on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances. You can accomplish this using remote terminal programs such as PuTTY or SSH, or by leveraging AWS Systems Manager for remote command execution on EC2 instances.
