Currently, the process of creating an image involves:

  1. uploading raw image to s3
  2. importing the raw image to EBS snapshots
  3. registering image from EBS snapshot

The process is taking longer is the step 2.

Instead of creating a snapshot from an s3 object, it's possible to write data directly to the snapshot using the EBS API.
https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/aws/[email protected]/service/ebs

This may involve programming the next steps:

  1. Start snapshot (https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/aws/[email protected]/service/ebs#EBS.StartSnapshot)
  2. Writing data to each snapshot block (https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/aws/[email protected]/service/ebs#EBS.PutSnapshotBlock)
  3. Complete snapshot, which changes the snapshot state and block writes (https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/aws/[email protected]/service/ebs#EBS.CompleteSnapshot)
