AWS CLI Commands

User PowerShell to run below command

1. Creating a security Group

aws ec2 authorize-security-group-ingress --group-name devenv-sg --protocol tcp --port 22 --cidr 0.0.0.0/0

3. Next, create a key pair, which allows you to connect to the instance.
aws ec2 create-key-pair --key-name MyKeyPair --query 'KeyMaterial' --output text | out-file -encoding ascii -filepath
MyKeyPair.pem
(Note:- MyKeyPair.pem will be saved into your current working directory)

aws ec2 run-instances --image-id ami-d5c18eba --security-group-ids sg-b4a291dc --count 1 --instance-type t2.micro --key-name
MyKeyPair --query 'Instances[0].InstanceId'
