Excited for the next one! IaC is such a great concept.

Nice one, Alex!

In general, we're doing this with a shell script in the user-data, rather than a cloud-config. I haven't worked out yet whether there's much advantage to cloud-init if you mostly just have a sequence of runcmd lines... especially since the next thing we do is run a bunch of Ansible against the new instances... 😊 But I see that cloud-init can natively install Ansible and go and grab a playbook to run. I may have to try that...

Thanks for this video (and the series). How hard would it be to add it to an AWS Lambda (in a Docker image, or as part of a startup script)? it could be very helpful for debugging startup problems.
OT: Are those speakers the KEF LS50 Metas? If so, do you love 'em?

This should all work with AWS ec2 instances I would think…
