What Is a Launch Template?

A launch template contains the configuration information to launch an ECS, for example, the ECS specifications, network settings, and a key pair (excluding the password). You can launch an ECS quickly without specifying the configuration parameters every time.

A launch template cannot be modified once it is created. You can create multiple launch templates and configure different parameters for each template.

Creating a Launch Template

Create a launch template on the console.
