Is it this https://varnish-cache.org/intro/index.html#intro ?
Yes
you should be able to install varnish on AL2023 using os el and dist 9: https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/varnishcache/varnish73/config_file.repo?os=el&dist=9&source=script
os=aws&dist=2023 should also work but it seems to be broken (I already opened a ticket for this: https://github.com/varnishcache/pkg-varnish-cache/issues/163 )
We require Varnish 7 as well - however we also need the varnish-devel so that we can compile custom modules.
Currently this won't install as it complains that nothing provides /usr/libexec/platform-python
We also need Varnish 7.1. How to install in AWS Linux 2023?

@BernardRobbins
I made all steps , now How can i start varnish in AWS Linux 2023, (like sudo systemctl start opensearch)? How can i check if is running, (like sudo systemctl status opensearch)? How can i make this auto-start when reboot the instance?
why not installing from the repository I mentioned above?
@jocel1 can you guide me how to install? I do not have all knowledge to do this.

It could lead to issues. Varnish themselves won't support any issues with the package on Amazon Linux 2023. Neither will Amazon themselves.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/linux/al2023/ug/compare-with-al2.html#epel
However, AL2023 doesn't support EPEL or EPEL-like repositories.
If a dependency ever got updated in AL2023 to a version not compatible with EPEL9 it would then stop installing and break - and I think the packaging source being compatible to EPEL9 would not be able to fix it, so you'd lose Varnish suddenly.
What package is missing from Amazon Linux 2023? Please describe and include package name. varnish https://varnish-cache.org varnish repo
Is this an update to existing package or new package request? new package request
Is this package available in Amazon Linux 2? If it is available via external sources such as EPEL, please specify. Yes. EPEL.
Any additional information you'd like to include. (use-cases, etc)
