Launching instances from AMI

The AMI created in the previous step can now be used to generate each of our 3 EC2 instances for our metagraph.

Visit the AMI page

Select the AMI we created previously and press the Launch instance from AMI button.

Configure Instance

Name your instance, select the Instance Type as t2.xlarge, choose your Key pair, and select the appropriate Security Groups.

Launch Instance

Press the Launch Instance button.

Repeat

Perform the above steps 3 times to create 3 EC2 instances from the AMI.

Connect to Instances

Find the ip address of each instance in the EC2 dashboard and connect using your previously generated SSH key. You should be able to access all 3 instances and confirm they are properly configured.

ssh -i "MyKeypair.pem" ubuntu@ip.of.your.instance
