Before you install
- Requires AWS CDK v1 runtime dependencies (aws-cdk.aws-ec2, aws-cdk.aws-iam, aws-cdk.core, constructs).
- Package is end-of-support; new projects should use AWS CDK v2.
- Low install friction with standard wheel distribution.

What it is and what it does
This is an AWS CDK v1 construct library for Amazon FSx, a fully managed file storage service. It provides Python classes to define FSx file systems declaratively as part of your infrastructure-as-code stack, supporting both Lustre (for high-performance computing, machine learning, and video processing workloads) and Windows File Server deployments. The library handles VPC integration, security group configuration, and mount-point management through a higher-level abstraction over CloudFormation primitives.
The package is no longer maintained; AWS CDK v1 reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01. While the library remains functional for existing stacks, new projects should use AWS CDK v2 instead. The package depends on eight runtime modules from the CDK ecosystem (EC2, IAM, KMS, core, constructs, jsii, publication, typeguard) and supports Python 3.7 through 3.11.
Use it for
- Define a Lustre file system for HPC or machine learning workloads as part of a CDK v1 stack
- Provision FSx storage with automatic VPC and security group configuration using infrastructure-as-code
- Mount FSx file systems on EC2 instances by exposing DNS and mount names through CDK constructs
- Import and reference existing FSx file systems into CDK stacks using file system attributes
