Summary
Starts an Amazon EBS-backed AMI that you've previously stopped. Instances that use Amazon EBS volumes as their root devices can be quickly stopped
and started. When an instance is stopped, the compute resources are released and you are not billed for hourly instance usage. However, your root partition
Amazon EBS volume remains, continues to persist your data, and you are charged for Amazon EBS volume usage. You can restart your instance at any time. Each
time you transition an instance from stopped to started, Amazon EC2 charges a full instance hour, even if transitions happen multiple times within a single hour.
