     1  # AWS Machine Images for CAPA Clusters
     2  
     3  CAPA requires a “machine image” containing pre-installed, matching versions of kubeadm and kubelet.
     4  Machine image is either auto-resolved by CAPA to a public AMI that matches the Kubernetes version in `KubeadmControlPlane` or `MachineDeployment` spec,
     5  or an appropriate custom image ID for the Kubernetes version can be set in `AWSMachineTemplate` spec.
     6  
     7  [Pre-built public AMIs](built-amis.md) are published by the maintainers regularly for each new Kubernetes version.
     8  
     9  [Custom images](custom-amis.md) can be created using [image-builder][image-builder] project.
