Esri provides Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) you can use when building a site on Amazon Web Services (AWS). ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder on Amazon Web Services uses these AMIs to build stand-alone ArcGIS Server sites, and you can use the AMIs with Amazon CloudFormation templates or the AWS Management Console to deploy ArcGIS Enterprise or build stand-alone ArcGIS Server sites.
AMIs are publicly available from Amazon; you do not need to contact Esri Customer Service to access most of the ArcGIS Server AMIs.*
*To use AMIs in Chinese regions, you need to contact your regional office.
Available AMIs are as follows:
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 on Ubuntu with PostgreSQL
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5.1 on Ubuntu with PostgreSQL
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 with SQL Server
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5.1 with SQL Server
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 with SQL Server Express
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5.1 with SQL Server Express
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 with SQL Server Express (Japan)
The first table provides a summary of the components included with the current version of each type of AMI. The second table provides a summary of the components included with the 10.5 version of each type of AMI.

Typically, it's easier to build an ArcGIS Server site using ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder on Amazon Web Services. If you will be using the AWS Management Console to create a site from these AMIs instead, follow the instructions in Launch an EC2 instance running ArcGIS Server.
To deploy ArcGIS Enterprise, use the Esri sample AWS CloudFormation templates.
