Provisioners

Provisioners use builtin and third-party software to install and configure the machine image after booting. Provisioners prepare the system for use, so common use cases for provisioners include:

  • installing packages
  • patching the kernel
  • creating users
  • downloading application code

These are just a few examples, and the possibilities for provisioners are endless.
