It is built on top of alibabacloud-tea-openapi and darabonba-core, which handle the underlying HTTP transport and request serialization.\n\nThe SDK is actively maintained, supports Python 3.7 through 3.12, and is distributed as a pure wheel with low installation friction. It is intended for developers building applications that need to provision, configure, or monitor ECS resources on Alibaba Cloud infrastructure.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building on Alibaba Cloud infrastructure. The SDK is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, supports modern Python versions, and carries a permissive Apache 2.0 license. Install friction is low and the package is well-positioned in the ecosystem. Not relevant if you do not use Alibaba Cloud."},"id":"alibabacloud-ecs20140526","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/alibabacloud-ecs20140526","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/alibabacloud-ecs20140526.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/alibabacloud-ecs20140526/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-07","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"alibabacloud-ecs20140526","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Alibaba Cloud Elastic Compute Service (20140526) SDK Library for Python"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":163559,"position":10569,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"7.9.6"}
