Is there any way I can use a custom AMI for Splunk in AWS?

msrkr

Can I use a custom AMI which is hardened by a script for Splunk deployment in AWS?
If there is a possibility, how can I do it?
please suggest me.
I know just changing the AMI in the cloudformation does not work
There are some internal changes that need to be made.

Kindly help me with this.
Thank you in advance.

You can install Splunk on any AMI in AWS that is supported. It would be up to you to change the cloudformation scripts as neccesary and make sure they work.

But I am unable to deploy it as it's not receiving success signal.

I have changed the AMI in cloud formation but did not get a success signal.
