<div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Atul is describing a different feature that can be used to achieve similar results. The contents of "User-Data" will be accessible to the instance via "<a href="http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data" target="_blank">http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data</a>" - Ubuntu ships with a tool called cloud-init that makes use of this data if available. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Eg One of the simple use cases for cloud-init is, if the data starts with "#!", it will assume it's a shell script and download + execute it.
