Operating systems supported when using CloudFormation to deploy ArcGIS on AWS

When you use an ArcGIS Enterprise on Amazon Web Services deployment tool to launch a deployment, you can specify a base Amazon Machine Image (AMI) ID to use for the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances included in your deployment. The AMI ID you specify must use a supported operating system version. These versions are listed in the following sections.

Linux

The following Linux operating systems are supported for all ArcGIS Enterprise 11.5 components you deploy using a CloudFormation template provided by Esri:

Microsoft Windows

The following Windows operating system versions are supported when you create a 11.5 or ArcGIS Pro 3.5 deployment using a CloudFormation template provided by Esri:

For ArcGIS Enterprise, Windows 11 is supported for basic testing and application development use only. It is not recommended for deployment in a production environment. If you deploy ArcGIS Pro on its own EC2 instance, Windows 11 is supported for production environments.

ArcGIS Notebook Server is not supported on Windows operating systems when you deploy the site using an Esri CloudFormation template or Cloud Builder.
