    E-MapReduce:Create a cluster based on a cluster template

    Last Updated:Mar 26, 2026

    Cluster templates let you reuse a saved configuration to create new clusters without re-entering the same settings each time. This is useful when you need multiple clusters with identical configurations.

    Note

    If you create a subscription cluster from a template, the cluster is not provisioned until you pay for the order. After you click OK, find the cluster on the EMR on ECS page and complete payment before provisioning starts.
