requirement. then create AMI from the prepared EC2 instance.

--> Newly Created AMI will be our OWN AMI, which contains everything whstever is
exist on the Source EC2 instance (from the EC2 instance which we create the AMI)

--> Whenever we use the newly created AMI to launch a new EC2 instance, then the
new Instance will be created with all the componenets inclued in the AMI by
default.

3. Create new EC2 instance using the custom AMI "MyFirstWebsite"

4. Access the public IP in the browser to check the website is running

--> We cannot use the AMIs across different regions. Instead we can copy the AMI to
the required region and then create new EC2 instance.

5. Copy the AMI from N.Virginia to Mumbai Region.

Mumbai AMI ID : ami-0319c13b6fe218c8b


N.Virginia AMI ID : ami-0a1d9443aacf75853

Note: All Custom AMIs are private by default.

6. Convert the custom AMI (N.Virginia) into Public AMI, so that anybodey can use
our AMI across all the AWS Accounts in N.Virginia Region only.

8. Share the custom AMI which is in Mumbai region with a specific AWS account only.

9. Cleanup the Custom AMI.
