Question

I have created a custom AMI and now I would like to launch it as an EC2 instance. Is this possible? If yes, How?

Answer 1

Hi @Hannah, of course, this is possible. Follow these steps:

Open EC2 Console

Choose the AMI, you wish to use

• If the AMI you’re using is one that you created, select Owned by me.
• If the AMI you’re using is a public AMI, select Public images.
• If the AMI you’re using is a private image that someone else shared with you, select Private images.

And then launch the instance like in the usual way.
