Why OS installation on laptop take more than 30 minute but in case of EC2 it take 2 minute ?
In AWS, an EC2 machine can be created quickly using a feature called EC2 Launch Templates. EC2 Launch Templates are pre-configured templates that you can create and then use to quickly launch EC2 instances. With these templates, you can define the instance type, operating system, storage, security settings, and other configurations, which can then be used to launch instances in just a few clicks.
Behind the scenes, when you create an EC2 instance using a Launch Template, AWS uses its cloud infrastructure to provision the resources required for the instance. This includes setting up the virtual machine, configuring the network, and allocating the necessary storage. AWS EC2 instances are built on top of a pre-defined set of machine images (AMIs) that contain the operating system and other software needed to run the instance. These machine images are stored in the backend and are readily available for quick provisioning.
The EC2 instances are created and launched in the backend of AWS, meaning they are running on servers in AWS’s data centers. These data centers are designed to provide a high level of availability, security, and scalability to ensure that your instances are always up and running.
In summary, the quick creation of EC2 instances is made possible by the pre-configured templates, the availability of pre-defined machine images (AMIs), and the underlying cloud infrastructure of AWS.
