Explanation
This option involves copying the AMI from the us-east-1 Region to the additional Regions using the aws ec2 copy-image command. Once the AMI is available in each of the target Regions, the CloudFormation template can be updated to include mappings for the copied AMIs in each Region. This allows you to use the fully configured AMI in each Region without needing to recreate it from scratch or take snapshots of running instances.
