"Recall that the two fundamental components of cloud computing is compute and storage. On AWS, a \"virtual server\" or \"virtual computer\" is known as an **Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2) instance**; sometimes it's called \"EC2\", sometimes it's called an \"instance\" to denote that the ability to build and terminate this server instantaneously, but they all mean the same thing. An EC2 instance is no different from a server that sits under your desk, or your local departmental cluster, or even your local HPC cluster. You even boot up an EC2 instance through the web console, install software and then shut down your instance just like you would a real computer, except that Amazon takes care of the physical machinery while you are in charge of process of creating the computer. In some sense, you can think of utilizing an EC2 instance as renting a server or computer from Amazon! \n",
"In the previous lesson we learned how to launch a virtual machine from the AWS console. We selected an Amazon Machine Image (AMI), Chose an Instance and Configured Launch Settings. Recall that there are 7 steps to walk through to create a new EC2 instance; we will go through each in detail: \n",

"In cloud jargon, the term **elasticity** denotes the ability to quickly expand or decrease computer processing, memory, and storage resources to meet changing demands. In that way, you can expand the size of your CPU, RAM and disk size on your EC2 instance almost instantenously. Since EC2 forms the backbone of most of AWS's core infrastructure, it is an important part of your cloud journey. \n",

"## 1. Select an AMI\n",
"\n",
"An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) is a template that Amazon uses to describe the operating system, disk type and all the software configuration that is needed to make sure a computer runs smoothly. Imagine that you are purchasing a new laptop; fresh out of the box, the laptop is pre-configured with an operating system (e.g. Windows, Mac OS, Ubuntu etc.), configuration files that tells the laptop what peripherals are attached, and pre-installed software like Adobe PDF reader. An AMI contains all this information so that your EC2 instance runs exactly like it would a new laptop out of the box! There is much more to learn about AMIs and how they can used for collaboration and data sharing but that is not within the scope of CLASS Essentials. \n",
"\n",

"Instance types are group by [**families**](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/instance-types.html) and denotes whether, for example, an instance is optimized for batch processing (compute-optimized, C-family), optimized for databases (memory-optimized, R-family) or has accelerated hardware (GPUs) for AI or Machine Learning pipelines. \n",

More details about EBS and different kinds of disk storage on EC2 instances are beyond the scope of CLASS Essentials. \n",
"A [security group](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/VPC_SecurityGroups.html) acts as a virtual firewall for your EC2 instances to control inbound and outbound traffic.
