ssm parameters

The ssm parameters tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about AWS Systems Manager parameters, particularly the al2023-ami-kernel-default-* parameter used by Amazon Linux 2023. Recent content highlights how AWS changed this parameter to point to Linux kernel 6.18 instead of 6.1, affecting instance launches. This tag is relevant for administrators managing Amazon Machine Images and deployment behaviors, as changes to SSM parameters can alter the kernel version of new instances without modifying infrastructure definitions. Topics include understanding parameter updates, their impact on AMI selection, and implications for system administration and deployment strategies in AWS environments.
