Overview
This product has charges associated with it for seller support. Deploy a production ready AWX instance on AWS in minutes and give your Ansible automation a web UI, REST API, role based access control, scheduling and centralised logging. Built for platform teams, MSPs and administrators who run Ansible from laptops and cron jobs today and need shared visibility, credentials management and job history.
What you get out of the box
- Current stable AWX deployed via the official AWX Operator.
- HTTPS by default with a one command Let's Encrypt path; admin password generated per instance, retrievable once then self deleting
- Execution environment ready
Common use cases
- From laptops to a platform: shared job templates, credentials vaulting, RBAC and audit history for playbooks the team already has
- Scheduled automation: patching windows, compliance runs and drift checks on cron like schedules with real logging
- MSP operations: per client AWX instances deployed identically from this AMI, or one instance with RBAC separation
- CI/CD integration: trigger job templates from GitLab CI or webhooks via the REST API
- Evaluation path to Ansible Automation Platform: AWX is the upstream project; teams that later need Red Hat support and lifecycle guarantees can migrate with their automation intact
Sizing guidance
AWX is not light. Minimum viable: t3.large (2 vCPU, 8 GB). Recommended production: m7i.large with gp3 storage. Concurrent job heavy teams: m7i.xlarge.

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.
