Create an EC2 Instance using AWS CLI

Question

Can someone help me with creating an EC2 instance using AWS CLI?

Answer 1

You can use the following command to create an EC2 Instance:-

C:\Users\priyj_kumar>aws ec2 run-instances --image-id ami-0080e4c5bc078760e --key-name yourkeyname --instance-type t2.micro --region us-east-1 --subnet-id your-subnet-id --count 1

After creation of the EC2 instance you will get a log like this:-
