packer AWS which base images to choose for intel processors instances


When searching the official Ubuntu amis in AWS interface I see only -amd64- or -arm64- options. I dont see any interl option (x86). How can I find the intel compatible base AMIs ?


Solution

  • In a very simple way, amd64 is the 64 bits evolution of the x86 architecture, so for intel-based processors is the right platform.
