-By default, when you create a cluster, Amazon EMR uses a default Amazon Linux AMI that is created specifically for the Amazon EMR release version you use. For more information about the default Amazon Linux AMI, see [Using the default Amazon Linux AMI for Amazon EMR](./emr-default-ami.html). When you use Amazon EMR 5.7.0 or higher, you can choose to specify a custom Amazon Linux AMI instead of the default Amazon Linux AMI for Amazon EMR. A custom AMI allows you to encrypt the root device volume and to customize applications and configurations as an alternative to using bootstrap actions. You can specify a custom AMI for each instance type in the instance group or instance fleet configuration of an Amazon EMR cluster. Multiple custom AMI support gives you the flexibility to use more than one architecture type in a cluster. See [Using a custom AMI to provide more flexibility for Amazon EMR cluster configuration](./emr-custom-ami.html).
