How to Calculate VPC Subnet CIDR Details in Python
Compute network address, broadcast address, address count, prefix length, and netmask for any IPv4 CIDR using the Python standard library's ipaddress module.
import ipaddress
def subnet_details(cidr: str) -> dict:
network = ipaddress.ip_network(cidr, strict=False)
return {
"network_address": str(network.network_address),
"broadcast_address": str(network.broadcast_address),
"num_addresses": network.num_addresses,
"prefix_length": ne…
How to Enforce Tag Policies on AWS Resources in Python
Build a reusable Python class that checks AWS resources against a required-tag policy and reports compliance with missing tags.
import json
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from typing import Dict, List
@dataclass
class Resource:
arn: str
tags: Dict[str, str] = field(default_factory=dict)
class TagPolicyEnforcer:
def __init__(self, required_tags: List[str]):
self.required_tags = set(required_tags)

How to Implement Region Failover Config in Python with Primary and Secondary Mock
This Python class simulates regional failover: it tracks active region, switches to secondary on primary failure, and allows manual recovery.
import time
class RegionFailoverConfig:
def __init__(self, primary, secondary):
self.primary = primary
self.secondary = secondary
self.active = primary
self.failover_count = 0
self.healthy = True
def check_health(self):
"""Mock health check - returns True if ac…
Mock AWS Spot Instance Interruption Handler in Python
A Python class that simulates AWS Spot instance interruption checks, handling the 10% chance of termination, logging state-saving, and storing notice details.
import time
import random
class SpotInstanceHandler:
def __init__(self, instance_id):
self.instance_id = instance_id
self.interruption_notices = []
def start(self):
print(f"Spot instance {self.instance_id} started")
def check_interruption(self):
# Simulate random interrup…
