Placement
By default, EC2 instances run on shared tenancy hardware. This means that multiple Amazon Web Services accounts might share the same physical hardware. When you use dedicated hardware, the physical server that hosts your instances is dedicated to your Amazon Web Services account. Instance placement settings contain the details for the physical hardware where instances that Image Builder launches during image creation will run.
