64-bit (x86) Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
Updated base operating system to Ubuntu 22.04 from 21.04.
Additional details
Usage instructions
Launch the image on any of the available instance types. Consider increasing the size of the root EBS volume. Make sure that the attached security group allows traffic on port 80 and 443 if you plan to access the server via the browser interface, and port 3389 if you plan to use the Remote Desktop Protocol. Allow a couple of minutes for the instance to boot. The web interface can be accessed through your browser on the public IP (or private IP for enterprise VPCs) of the EC2 instance (e.g. https://18.245.21.43 where 18.245.21.43 is the public IP address of the instance).
Most browsers will display a certificate warning. This warning is letting you know that the certificate was self-signed instead of signed by a trusted Certificate Authority. You can safely ignore the warning as it doesn't impact the security of the connection by clicking on "Continue to this webpage" (Internet Explorer) or "Advanced" and then "Proceed to website" (Chrome).
The default user is ubuntu and the default password is the instance ID. Alternatively, you can reach your desktop environment through a Remote Desktop Client (such as the Microsoft Remote Desktop Application, preinstalled on Windows and available on the Apple App Store for MacOS). The hostname is simply the public IP (or private IP for enterprise VPCs). Make sure you enter the username and password before you connect. On Windows, click "Show Options" and fill in the username and password.

Friendly AMI for bioinformaticians
This AMI provides a quite pain free environment for an analyst in the fields like bioinformatics, with the most popular RStudio and Jupiter Notebook pre-installed. Data and results are protected by password. It's a good solution for sharing analytic environment between a small group of co-workers working on the same internal projects.
Major Timesaver
I have been using this image for about a year now, in various versions. Their support is first rate, and friendly. It saved me a lot of time from having to configure and manage aspects of my system, such as the graphical interface, that prior to this, were minor projects on their own. It gives me everything I need to do machine learning, as well. But it's also my daily desktop. Yes,you might be able to do this in your own, but why, when they've covered all the bases for you.
