What is AWS IMD

AWS IMD stands for AWS Instance Management Daemon. It is a tool that automates tasks related to EC2 instances, such as creating and deleting instances, assigning IAM roles, and managing instance metadata. AWS IMD helps users automate their EC2 instance management tasks, reducing the time and effort required to manage large numbers of instances. With AWS IMD, users can define their desired state for their EC2 instances in a simple JSON or YAML file, and then use AWS IMD to manage their instances based on that desired state. AWS IMD is designed to be used in conjunction with other AWS services, such as CloudFormation, EC2 Auto Scaling, and Amazon EC2 Systems Manager, to provide a comprehensive EC2 instance management solution.
