title: Is there any Impact Of AMI Creation On Network Bandwidth
body: <p>I've multiple ec2 instances in my AWS VPC some of which run web servers while a few run production databases. There's a good amount of traffic during daytime. I've a m4.large ec2 instance running Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS with 300GB data in one of its attached 1000GB EBS volumes. This instance is for testing purposes and not part of the production environment. Would there be any impact of creating AMI for this instance, say during the day time, in terms of the overall network bandwidth utilisation of the VPC? </p>
