## Create a virtual machine

The first step is to create a virtual machine resource that will be used to host the web server. The specific details of how to create your virtual machine differ by cloud provider. For the purposes of this tutorial, we will be creating our resources in AWS in the `us-east-1` region.

The physical name is the name used for the resource in the cloud provider that a Pulumi program is deploying to. It is a combination of the logical name plus a random suffix which helps to prevent resource naming collisions.

In the above example, the logical name for our `aws.ec2.Instance` resource is **"webserver-www"**, and the physical name might typically look something like **"webserver-www-d7c2fa0"**.

In addition to names, resources have properties and options.

**Properties** are used to specify what type of resource to create. Properties are often resource-specific, and they can be required or optional depending on the specifications of the provider.

The properties inside our `aws.ec2.Instance` resource are:
The properties inside your `aws.ec2.Instance` resource are:

| Property | Description |
|--------------|-------------|
| **instance_type** | tells the AWS provider to create an EC2 instance of type/size `t2.micro` |
| **ami** | tells the provider to create the instance using the `ami-09538990a0c4fe9be` machine image |
| **user_data** | tells the provider to initialize the instance with the script we have defined |
| **user_data** | tells the provider to initialize the instance with the script you have defined |

**Options** let you control certain aspects of a resource (such as showing explicit dependencies or importing existing infrastructure). We do not have any options defined for this resource, but you can learn more about options in the [Pulumi documentation](/docs/concepts/options).

You may have noticed that the placeholder code for the security group resource has been moved above the code for the EC2 instance resource. This was done intentionally to accommodate for variable declaration and usage order in our code.

If we place the security group resource definition after the EC2 instance and try to deploy our program, it will fail. This is because the security group variable must be declared before we can tell our EC2 instance resource to use it.
