The CDK Construct Library for AWS::Batch
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No—do not install for new projects. AWS CDK v1 is end-of-support as of 2023-06-01 and receives no updates. Use AWS CDK v2's batch constructs instead. For existing CDK v1 projects already in production, this package will continue to work but should be migrated to v2 on a planned schedule to maintain security and feature parity.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires AWS CDK v1 core library and an active AWS account; AWS CDK v1 is end-of-support as of 2023-06-01.
- Low install friction with pure Python wheel distribution.
- Maintenance status is active, but the package is classified as Inactive (Development Status 7) because AWS CDK v1 reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01; users should migrate to AWS CDK v2.

What it is and what it does
This package provides AWS CDK v1 constructs for defining AWS Batch infrastructure in Python code. It lets you declare compute environments (managed or unmanaged, supporting EC2, Spot, and Fargate), job queues with priority-based scheduling, and job definitions—all the core resources needed to run batch workloads on AWS. The package wraps AWS Batch's queue-based job processing model, allowing you to specify resource requirements, container images, environment variables, and allocation strategies programmatically.
However, AWS CDK v1 reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01 and is no longer being updated. New projects should use AWS CDK v2 instead. Existing projects using this package will continue to work but will not receive bug fixes, security updates, or new features. The package depends on 11 runtime libraries including aws-cdk.aws-ec2, aws-cdk.aws-ecs, aws-cdk.aws-iam, and the core CDK framework.
Use it for
- Define managed compute environments that auto-scale EC2 or Fargate resources based on batch job demand.
- Create job queues with priority-based scheduling to handle high-priority jobs before lower-priority ones.
- Specify job definitions with container images, vCPU/memory requirements, and environment variables as infrastructure code.
- Configure spot-based compute environments to reduce costs by bidding for EC2 Spot instances at a percentage of on-demand pricing.
- Import and reference existing AWS Batch resources (compute environments, queues) into CDK stacks for hybrid infrastructure management.
