Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Additional details
Usage instructions
See documentation for detailed steps to set admin password before using the web interface of VM-Series. Once the instance is running, connect to it using a SSH client with the private key file used to launch the instance. For example: ssh -i <privatekey.pem> admin@<EIP or private IP of eth0> Then use the PAN-OS CLI commands "configure", "set mgt-config users admin password" and "commit" commands to set the password.

Best feature about this is Advanced threat protection it provides. I personally like this feature. Furthermore, it provides great collaboration with different cloud providers like Azure, AWS and more.

From Infrastructure as Code (IaC) point of view, its not the best. Because it has some issues with it. From my POV, the cost is also bit more from the market's tools.

The security it provides is immensely awesome. Whether you are using cloud technologies or not, it is the best. It helps also in automating the deployments via Hashicorp's Terraform.
