对于。net用户:

string instanceId = new StreamReader(
      HttpWebRequest.Create("http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id")
      .GetResponse().GetResponseStream())
    .ReadToEnd();

对于。net代码来说非常简单: var instanceId = Amazon.Util.EC2InstanceMetadata.InstanceId

我写了一个FUSE文件系统来提供对EC2元数据服务的访问:https://github.com/xdgc/ec2mdfs。 我在所有自定义ami上运行这个;它允许我使用这个习语:cat /ec2/meta-data/ami-id

对于Windows实例:

(wget http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id).Content

or

(ConvertFrom-Json (wget http://169.254.169.254/latest/dynamic/instance-identity/document).Content).instanceId

Ruby:

require 'rubygems'
require 'aws-sdk'
require 'net/http'

metadata_endpoint = 'http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/'
instance_id = Net::HTTP.get( URI.parse( metadata_endpoint + 'instance-id' ) )

ec2 = AWS::EC2.new()
instance = ec2.instances[instance_id]

对于。net用户:

string instanceId = new StreamReader(
      HttpWebRequest.Create("http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id")
      .GetResponse().GetResponseStream())
    .ReadToEnd();
