Learning Objectives
Amazon EC2 Image Builder is a fully managed service that allows us to build, test, deploy, and maintain customized machine images (AMIs) and Docker container images.
In this Cloud Lab, you’ll create a customized AMI using Amazon EC2 Image Builder. First, you’ll create an SNS topic. This will allow you to receive email notifications about your images. You’ll also create an IAM role that will give EC2 Image Builder the permissions required to create an image.
After this, you’ll create an image pipeline. You’ll also define the type of image we want to create in this pipeline. Finally, you’ll launch an EC2 instance using your custom AMI.
The following is the high-level architecture diagram of the infrastructure you’ll create in this Cloud Lab:
