Overview
CentOS Stream 9 Server + AWS Tools (CLI)
A pre-configured CentOS Stream 9 AMI with AWS CLI v2 pre-installed, built by Cloud Infrastructure Services for DevOps engineers, system administrators, and cloud teams who need a production-ready Linux server on AWS without manual setup.
What Is Included
- CentOS Stream 9 - Community enterprise Linux distribution derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) sources, providing a stable and predictable server environment
- AWS CLI v2 - Pre-installed and ready to use, with support for AWS Single Sign-On (SSO), interactive features, and management of multiple AWS services from the command line
- Optimized Configuration - Image tuned for AWS cloud deployment with production workloads in mind
Key Use Cases
DevOps Automation Hub: A DevOps engineer launches this AMI as a management node to run nightly infrastructure-as-code deployments. With AWS CLI v2 already configured, they can immediately execute scripts that provision resources across multiple AWS accounts, schedule automated backups, and orchestrate multi-service workflows - all without spending time on initial CLI installation and dependency management.
Bastion Host for Multi-Account Management: System administrators deploy this AMI as a secure bastion host within a VPC. Using the pre-installed AWS CLI with SSO support, they manage resources across multiple AWS accounts from a single entry point, reducing the attack surface while maintaining full operational control.
CI/CD Pipeline Worker: Teams use this AMI as a base for build servers and pipeline runners. The pre-installed CLI eliminates setup steps in automation scripts, reducing pipeline initialization time and simplifying maintenance of build environments.
Why This AMI vs. a Vanilla CentOS Install
- Immediate Productivity - Skip the manual process of installing, configuring, and testing AWS CLI v2 and its dependencies
- AWS Integration - Pre-configured for AWS cloud environments with CLI tools ready for automation
- RHEL Compatibility - CentOS Stream 9 maintains binary compatibility with RHEL, making it suitable for organizations standardized on Red Hat ecosystems
- Community and Enterprise Support - Backed by a large open-source community with extensive documentation and package availability
- Reproducible Deployments - Use as a consistent base image across development, staging, and production environments
Requirements and Limitations
- This AMI provides a server environment (no GUI/desktop included)
- No database or web server is pre-installed - add packages as needed for your workload
- AWS CLI requires IAM credentials or an instance role with appropriate permissions to interact with AWS services

- Users are responsible for applying ongoing security updates after deployment
- No web server, application framework, or database is bundled by default
