IAM (p. 118): In a policy (p. 144), a specific characteristic that is the basis for
restricting access (such as the current time, or the IP address of the requester).
Tagging resources: A general tag (p. 155) label that acts like a category for more
specific tag values. For example, you might have EC2 instance (p. 129) with the
tag key of Owner and the tag value of Jan. You can tag an AWS resource (p. 148)
with up to 10 key–value pairs. Not all AWS resources can be tagged.
key pair A set of security credentials that you use to prove your identity electronically. A
key pair consists of a private key and a public key.
key prefix A logical grouping of the objects in a bucket (p. 122). The prefix value is similar
to a directory name that enables you to store similar data under the same
directory in a bucket.
kibibyte A contraction of kilo binary byte, a kibibyte is 2^10 or 1,024 bytes. A kilobyte (KB)
is 10^3 or 1,000 bytes. 1,024 KiB is a mebibyte (p. 140).
KMS See AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS).

labeled data In machine learning, data for which you already know the target or “correct”
answer.
launch configuration A set of descriptive parameters used to create new EC2 instance (p. 129)s in an
Auto Scaling (p. 115) activity.
A template that an Auto Scaling group (p. 115) uses to launch new EC2
instances. The launch configuration contains information such as the Amazon
Machine Image (AMI) (p. 112) ID, the instance type, key pairs, security
group (p. 151)s, and block device mappings, among other configuration
settings.
launch permission An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) (p. 112) attribute that allows users to launch
an AMI.
lifecycle The lifecycle state of the EC2 instance (p. 129) contained in an Auto Scaling
group (p. 115). EC2 instances progress through several states over their lifespan;
these include Pending, InService, Terminating and Terminated.
lifecycle action An action that can be paused by Auto Scaling, such as launching or terminating
an EC2 instance.
lifecycle hook Enables you to pause Auto Scaling after it launches or terminates an EC2 instance
so that you can perform a custom action while the instance is not in service.
link to VPC The process of linking (or attaching) an EC2-Classic instance (p. 136) to a
ClassicLink-enabled VPC (p. 159).
See Also ClassicLink, unlink from VPC.
load balancer A DNS name combined with a set of ports, which together provide a destination
for all requests intended for your application. A load balancer can distribute
