(aws-cdk-lib/aws-ec2): (Request to update Windows Version enum list)

[aashishgk7760]

Describe the feature

As per latest version of the CDK 2.94.0 (build 987c329) , whenever we are creating a Windows instance , there are few AMI version which are not available in the list of enums https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/tree/main/packages/aws-cdk-lib/aws-ec2/lib/windows-versions.ts.

Example : we don't have the Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Full Locale English with SQL Standard 2019 AMI provided by Amazon enum value.

Use Case

Instead of using LookupMachineImage , if we can have the updated list ,its easier to manage by directly referring to enum value.

Proposed Solution

Add a Enum value WINDOWS_SERVER_2019_ENGLISH_FULL_SQL_2019_Standard

example:

export enum WindowsVersion {

WINDOWS_SERVER_2019_ENGLISH_FULL_SQL_2019_Standard : ''Windows_Server-2019-English-Full-SQL_2019_Standard'
}

@khushail / @mrgrain – There are quite a few missing from the file compared to what's returned by the CLI:

aws ssm get-parameters-by-path --path "/aws/service/ami-windows-latest" --region us-east-1 | jq '.Parameters | .[] | .Name' | grep Windows_Server

97 by my count. Do you want me to add them all?
