Alternatively use aws ec2 get-console-output command. If you did not save the fingerprint on the first instance run, but you have another EC2 instance that you can connect to safely (you know its fingerprints), you can connect to the target instance using private IP from the trusted instance.

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale cloud computing easier for developers. Amazon EC2’s simple web service interface allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. A Dedicated Host is a physical EC2 server dedicated for your use. Dedicated Hosts can help you reduce costs by allowing you to use your existing server-bound software licenses, including Windows Server, SQL Server, and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (subject to your license terms), and can also help you meet compliance requirements. Use this tutorial to get started with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2). You'll learn how to launch, connect to, and use a Linux instance. An instance is a virtual server in the AWS cloud. With Amazon EC2, you can set up and configure the operating system and applications that run on your instance. EC2 provides users with control over the geographical location of instances that allows for latency optimization and high levels of redundancy. In November 2010, Amazon switched its own retail website to use EC2 and AWS.

How to use a free-tier Amazon AWS EC2 cloud server as a VPN. You can spin up a free (for 1 year), temporary AWS EC2 micro-instance server,

After you launch your instance, you can connect to it and use it the way that you'd use a computer sitting in front of you. To connect from the console, follow the steps below: Select the EC2 instance you created and choose "Connect". Select "A Java SSH client directly from my browser". Ensure Java is installed and enabled. EBS-optimized instances enable EC2 instances to fully use the IOPS provisioned on an EBS volume. EBS-optimized instances deliver dedicated throughput between Amazon EC2 and Amazon EBS, with options between 500 and 4,000 Megabits per second (Mbps) depending on the instance type used.

After finishing use of an instance, it is a good idea to stop or terminate the instance. To do this, go to the Amazon EC2 console and click on "Actions" then "Instance State" and you will have the option of either stopping or terminating the instance. If you plan on using the instance again, stop the instance.

ec2-authorize default -p 22 ec2-authorize default -p 80 If you want to undo any port authorizations you've made, you can use ec2-revoke. Now if you access your EC2 URL in a browser you'll get something like a default Apache page, or in the case of the AMI I'm using, a phpinfo() page. EC2 allows you to launch individual instances which you can use for pretty much whatever you like. ECS is a container service, which means it will launch instances that will be ready to launch container applications.
