In this challenge, you will create an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) to use as a web server template. First, you will create a key pair, and then you will create a security group. Next, you will create an AMI by using the web server instance. Finally, you will create an Amazon Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2) instance by using the custom AMI, and then you will test the new web server instance. Note: Once you begin the challenge, you will not be able to pause, save, or exit and then return to your challenge. Please ensure that you have set aside enough time to complete the challenge before you start.
