SSH Bastion Host Best Practices
> A final recommendation: If you use AWS though, consider using Session Manager instead of SSH and drop the bastion host. You can still connect using the SSH command, using proxy command in OpenSSH, but no public IP or bastion host is required.
Yes, this. Also check out https://github.com/rewindio/aws-connect for a convenient wrapper around SSM to make it easier to use (I'm not the author).

SSH Bastion Host Best Practices
I wrote something similar after I moved our fleet to SSM because I didn't want yet another CLI app to memorize flags on. It's ruby based and runs in an interactive mode by default. It doesn't cover the whole set of `aws ssm` featureset but focuses just on things that are needed for debugging sort of tasks. Leaving it here incase it's useful to anyone else: https://github.com/ajbdev/ruby-ssm-ops
