Allowed AMIs, the Amazon EC2 account-wide setting that enables you to limit the discovery and use of Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) within your Amazon Web Services accounts, adds support for four new parameters — marketplace codes, deprecation time, creation date and AMI names.
Previously, you could specify accounts or owner aliases that you trust in your Allowed AMIs setting. Starting today, you can use the four new parameters to define additional criteria to further reduce risk of inadvertently launching instances with non-compliant or unauthorized AMIs. Marketplace codes can be provided to limit the use of Marketplace AMIs, the deprecation time and creation date parameters can be used to limit the use of outdated AMIs, and AMI name parameter can be used to restrict usage to AMIs with specific naming pattern. You can also leverage Declarative Policies to configure these parameters to perform AMI governance across your organization.
These additional parameters are now supported in all AWS regions including AWS China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet, and AWS China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD, and AWS GovCloud (US). To learn more, please visit the documentation.
