Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a subsidiary of Amazon providing on-demand cloud computing platforms and APIs to individuals, companies, and governments, on a metered pay-as-you-go basis. These cloud computing web services provide a variety of basic abstract technical infrastructure and distributed computing building blocks and tools. One of these services is Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), which allows users to have at their disposal a virtual cluster of computers, available all the time, through the Internet. AWS’s version of virtual computers emulates most of the attributes of a real computer, including hardware central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) for processing; local/RAM memory; hard-disk/SSD storage; a choice of operating systems; networking; and pre-loaded application software such as web servers, databases, and customer relationship management (CRM).

Pre-requisites :-

. AWS Account

. IAM User in that AWS account.

. AWS CLI must be installed

. some other pre-requisites may require that i will be explaining in betweeen.

So Let’s Start 🤟…

Create IAM User

Source :- AWS Console

after that click on users

Source :- AWS Console

and then click on add user

Source :- AWS Console

just give some name and select programmatic access option .

Source :- AWS Console

for giving permission choose third option i.e. attach existing policies directly . tick the AdministratorAccess option …

Source :- AWS Console

then just click next…. and IAM user with admin power will be created for you they will provide you some credentials like access key and secret key for using AWS cloud form CLI .

i.e. by using aws configure command we will complete the same

aws configure

aws configure

Now from here we can start our practical …

🗝Command to create credential and key pair

aws ec2 create-key-pair — key-name Abhikey1122

Creating key

We can check it from cli that key is created .

Source :- AWS Console

And for creating security group

Command →

aws ec2 create-security-group — group-name Abhi_SG — vpc-id vpc-c8879aa0 — description “Abhi Security Group Created From CLI”

Again we can check security group is created ..

Source :- AWS Console

Details required for launching AWS instance from AWS CLI .

Command to launch an AWS instance →

aws ec2 run-instances — image-id ami-0e306788ff2473ccb — instance-type t2.micro — count 1 — subnet-id subnet-5b4c2717 — security-group-ids sg-07220bbbfe36adb85 — key-name Abhikey1122

Instance has been launched

Source :- AWS Console

Now time to create volume so that we can attach it to the instance

aws ec2 create-volume — volume-type gp2 — availability-zone ap-south-1b — size 1

Error u might face during attaching

error you might face during attaching a volume to the instance

So do this…

Source :- AWS Console

Volume that we created is now attached in the instance .

Source :- AWS Console

That’s all our task is done and we have launched an instance on AWS and then after creating a new volume we have attached with it ….
