AWS Lambda AMI Backups

	# Automated AMI Backups
	#
	# @author Bobby Kozora
	#
	# This script will search for all instances having a tag with the name "backup"
	# and value "Backup" on it. As soon as we have the instances list, we loop
	# through each instance
	# and create an AMI of it. Also, it will look for a "Retention" tag key which
	# will be used as a retention policy number in days. If there is no tag with
	# that name, it will use a 7 days default value for each AMI.
