In this post, I show you how to use Amazon EC2 Instance Connect to use Secure Shell (SSH) to securely access your Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances running on private subnets within an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC).
About Amazon EC2 Instance Connect The most common tool to connect to Linux servers is Secure Shell (SSH). It was created in 1995 and is now installed by default on almost every Linux distribution. When connecting to hosts via SSH, SSH key pairs are often used to individually authorize users.
Amazon EC2 supports ED25519 and 2048-bit SSH-2 RSA keys for Linux instances. You can have up to 5,000 key pairs per Region.
Commands to SSH into EC2 Instance: Next, let’s get to actually logging into your EC2 instance. To do so, you’ll have to open Terminal (on a Mac), or a SSH client like Putty (if on PC). Then, use the command below based on the type of instance you have.
Monitoring Amazon EC2. Monitoring is an important part of maintaining the reliability, availability, and performance of your Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances and your AWS solutions. You should collect monitoring data from all of the parts in your AWS solutions so that you can more easily debug a multi-point failure if one occurs.
AWS Elastic Compute Service or EC2 is IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service). This is due to the fact that Amazon manages networking, storage, server, and virtualization, while the user is responsible for managing the Operating System, middleware, runtime, data and application. Q: What is AWS EC2?
We can launch Linux/Windows Amazon EC2 instance using AWS Management Console. Open the Amazon EC2 console. From the console dashboard, choose Launch Instance. Choose an Amazon Machine Image (AMI). Choose an Instance Type. Click on Review and Launch to let the wizard complete the other configuration setting.
It's ASCII art that says EC2. That stands for Elastic Compute Cloud

You can make your custom ones using utility figlet. 'showfigfonts' will show you what fonts are available, the one aws uses is named "standard"
We make custom banners like aws by ebextensions. ie create file .ebextension/000update-motd.config
commands:
setup_banner:
command: |
yum erase -y update-motd
unlink /etc/motd
amazon-linux-extras install epel -y
yum-config-manager --enable epel
yum install -y figlet
# Add Motd as Beanstalk Environment Name
echo `{"Ref": "AWSEBEnvironmentName" }` | figlet -f standard > /etc/motd
# Add warning disclaimer from your code ( optional )
# cat /var/app/current/.platform/banner >> /etc/motd
test: rpm --quiet -q update-motd || [[ ! -f /etc/motd ]]
ignoreErrors: true
