you do not need to create snapshots separately if you are creating an AMI. When you create an AMI, AWS automatically creates snapshots of all the EBS volumes attached to the EC2 instance at the time the AMI is created. These snapshots are associated with the AMI and are used when you launch new instances from that AMI.

whether the AMI backup will restore the available appliances (Palo Alto firewall) from old instance

So if i create instance with "owned the AMI image" than i dont have to pay right extra for the image right. Can i do the same with windows server 2019? There is AMI image of windows Server 2019 in aws. If i create a instance with this AMI and then take a snap shot and add another instance and recover it as image. This way i build my custom windows server AMI image right?
And Can i use my Windows server 2019 License after creating instance?
