Esri provides Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) you can use when building a site on Amazon Web Services (AWS). You can use the AMIs with the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for Amazon Web Services, AWS CloudFormation templates, or the AWS Management Console to deploy ArcGIS Enterprise or build stand-alone ArcGIS Server sites on AWS.
AMIs are publicly available from AWS Marketplace; you do not need to contact Esri Customer Service to access most of the ArcGIS Enterprise AMIs.*
*To use an AMI in Chinese regions, you need to contact your regional office.
Available AMIs are as follows:
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1 on Ubuntu
- Esri ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1 on Microsoft Windows
Before using an AMI for the first time, you must accept the AWS Marketplace terms.
ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8 AMIs are no longer available.
The following table provides a summary of the components included with the current version of each type of AMI. You need to have licenses for each ArcGIS software component you use.

To deploy ArcGIS Enterprise or a stand-alone ArcGIS Server site, use one of the ArcGIS Enterprise on Amazon Web Services deployment tools.
If you will use the AWS Management Console to create a stand-alone ArcGIS Server site from these AMIs instead, follow the instructions in Launch an EC2 instance running ArcGIS Server.
