Will creating a new Lightsail instance affect my existing EC2 instances in any way?

0

I have a couple of production EC2 instances that I can't afford to go down. Now I wan to create a new Lightstail instance.

Will creating a new Lightsail instance affect my existing EC2 instances in anyway (e.g. firewall, SSH keys, etc.)? I am new to the AWS environment and don't want to trip on something unexpected.

Hello.

Launching a new Lightsail instance does not affect your existing EC2 configuration (firewall, SSH keys, etc.).
Lightsail instances and EC2 instances are different services, and in the case of Lightsail, they are launched on a VPC managed by AWS.
