Update site properties

You can use ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder on Amazon Web Services to modify some of the properties of your existing ArcGIS site. For example, you can update your site to adjust the computing power allocated to your GIS Servers, enable or disable autoscaling, or change the description of your site.

Note:

ArcGIS 10.6.1 is the final release of ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder on Amazon Web Services.
