# Elastic Disaster Recovery Launch Configuration Template

An Elastic Disaster Recovery Launch Configuration Template in AWS defines the settings used when launching recovery instances during a failover or drill. It specifies parameters such as instance type, networking, security groups, and other configurations to ensure that recovered workloads run with the desired infrastructure setup. This template helps automate and standardize recovery processes, reducing downtime and ensuring consistency across recovery environments.
