ATTENTION: FinOps Center will be deployed from CloudFormation via S3. The below instruction will create an EC2 deployment via and AMI. Upon creation, the EC2 instance will create the bucket with the CloudFormation Scripts and JSON to be used in lunch in CloudFormation. Upon completion (when the bucket and packages are deployed) the instance that is created can be shut down. During the installation, a EC2 Role needs to be created with IAM Scope defined below to enable the creation and copying of files for the CloudFormation Installation.
