Scenario

The lab environment provides you with the following resources to get started: an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC), the necessary underlying network structure, a security group allowing the HTTP protocol over port 80, an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance with the Amazon CLI installed, and an associated Amazon EC2 instance profile. The instance profile contains the permissions necessary to allow Session Manager, a capability of AWS Systems Manager, to access the Amazon EC2 instance.

The following diagram shows the interactive flow of the AWS API for creating AWS services and resources used in the lab through the AWS Management Console and AWS CLI.
