Very low documentation support the configuration things are way complicated.
On my aws account we faced many isssues like unable to download packages, key refuses many time even after using right keys, and limited documentation support
Great Instance
Perfect and stable instance that I was looking for my web server. Everything worked well as expected. Easy to install and use.
Getting SSH started was a pain
Had to terminate the instance more than once. On the first occasion I could get console but the image would not allow me access. Even following instruction.
Second time I was successful, but then I ran into complications just bringing up the SSH.
Point being; An instance is supposed to be quick to deploy. Spending 3 hours configuring something that isn't 100% can get quite frustrating.
Works well
This is exactly what I wanted, a bare-bones CentOS 8 image to put on a server being available on the AWS marketplace is perfect
Solid CentOS 8
We have been using the private AMIs provided by CentOS up until now. Having an "official" AWS CentOS 8 distribution adds to our confidence level. No issues with accessing or using this AMI. Be sure to do a dnf update and install all your necessary packages. This is a "minimal" image.
Cannot Connect to SSH
Well, this review is simple. You will pull your hair out trying to ssh into this instance. I just can't do it following all the instructions provided. Even read through the wiki and with no further guidance.
