Installing Drupal 7 on the Amazon Cloud
Presenter(s):
In this demo I will demonstrate how to install Drupal 7 on Amazon EC2 t1.micro EBS SPOT instance along with Ubuntu 10.10 step by step starting with the AWS Management console. I will share with the audience what the various types of instances then actually start up a spot t1.micro instance (the smallest instance type available on Amazon) with a community Ubuntu 10.10 server image. I will then install the LAMP stack on the server and get phpmyadmin and drupal installed.
I will also show how to create a back up ami of the entire Amazon instance so that in case you lose the instance you can restart a back up with the requisite machine state.
