Question
In AWS, there are two ways to create an EC2 instance, from an AMI made from a EBS Volume, or from AMI from Instance Store. What is the instance store AMI and where is it stored?
Answer
It is an AMI template stored on S3 but you have no visibility to it from your AWS Console (i.e. not like EBS Volumes, where you can see them and change their settings, e.g. size/type, from the EC2 console).
