An attempt to create the AWS CloudFormation stack in us-west-1 fails. An error message states that the AMI ID does not exist. A developer must resolve this error with a solution that uses the least amount of operational overhead

Which solution meets these requirements?

D.
Manually deploy the application outside AWS CloudFormation in us-west-1.
Answers
D.
Manually deploy the application outside AWS CloudFormation in us-west-1.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

Problem: CloudFormation can't find the custom AMI in the target region (us-west-1) because AMIs are region-specific.

Copying AMIs:

AMIs can be copied across regions, maintaining their configuration.

This approach minimizes operational overhead as the existing CloudFormation template can be reused with a minor update.

Updating the Template:

Modify the CloudFormation template in us-west-1 to reference the newly copied AMI's ID in that region.
