Overview
Kurians Linux operating systems AMIs are patched and up-to-date on the day of the release, and the updates are published every quarter. These AMIs are ideal to be used in automated provisioning processes such as that in an auto-scale group without having to worry about the availability of latest patches and the delay of applying those before adding the machines to a cluster.
Based on this baseline operating system, Kurian has released pre-configured software applications such as Wordpress, Jenkins, databases, LAMP stack, Ansible, DevOps tools, and monitoring applications that are widely used by system administrators and DevOps engineers. For selected Linux distributions hardened images based on CIS benchmark are also available. The Kurian AMIs are built following official installation steps so you do not need to learn any custom procedures.
Highlights
- Baseline AMI based on official distribution of the OS image.
- Ideal to be used with automated provisioning processes to ensure faster availability of the node.
- Built with the latest Linux operating system patches applied.

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.
