Keeping server images up-to-date can be time consuming, resource intensive, and error-prone. Currently, customers either manually update and snapshot VMs or have teams that build automation scripts to maintain images.
Image Builder significantly reduces the effort of keeping images up-to-date and secure by providing a simple graphical interface, built-in automation, and AWS-provided security settings. With Image Builder, you can easily build your automated pipeline that customizes, tests, and distributes your images in addition to keeping them secure and up-to-date.
Image Builder is available in all AWS regions and offered at no cost, other than the cost of the underlying AWS resources used to create, store, and share the images.
