solution. Although this tutorial series will not cover load balancing, auto scaling,
alarm monitoring, but you will get an idea how to setup an ubuntu instance on
EC2 and then make it ready for developing & deploying play application.
3. Virtual Server on AWS
I’m going to setup ubuntu 14.04 LTS on t2 micro instance.
t2 micro instance has :-
➢ 1 vCPU
➢ 1 Gibibyte (GiB) of RAM
➢ EBS only storage
