Objects and identifier prefixes

Every object in AWS has an identifier (Resource ID) with a prefix that characterizes the type of object. For example, i-01163e2ca54a0359e is the ID for an EC2 instance—we know it is an instance because of the i- prefix. Here is a partial list of ID prefixes and their associated object types:

ID Prefix	Object type
i	EC2 Instance
ami	Amazon Machine Image
vol	Elastic Block Store Volume
snap	Elastic Block Store Snapshot
sg	EC2 Security Group
vpc	Virtual Private Cloud
subnet	Virtual Private Cloud Subnet
rtb	Virtual Private Cloud Route table
igw	Virtual Private Cloud Internet Gateway
dopt	Virtual Private Cloud DHCP Options Set
eipalloc	EC2 Elastic IP Allocation
eipassoc	EC2 Elastic IP Association
eni	Elastic Network Interface
db	Relational Database Service database
cluster	RDS cluster
j	EMR cluster
ml	Machine Learning model
ds	Machine Learning data source
ws	WorkSpace

Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) uniquely identify AWS resources.
