-The final step of the automation in this example uses a Python function to create a new launch template that uses the newly patched AMI. Then the Auto Scaling group is updated to use the new launch template. In this type of Auto Scaling scenario, users could terminate existing instances in the Auto Scaling group to force a new instance to launch that uses the new image. Or, users could wait and allow scale-in or scale-out events to naturally launch newer instances.
