This project involves building a simple personal blog website and hosting it on a cloud server using AWS EC2. The main purpose of the website is to write and display articles in a structured and easy-to-read format. It will act as a personal blogging space where content can be updated and maintained over time.
The server will be set up using a Linux-based virtual machine (Ubuntu) on AWS EC2. After launching the instance, it will be accessed remotely using SSH for configuration and setup. A web server such as Nginx will be installed to serve the website files and make the blog accessible through a public IP address over the internet.
However, only HTML and CSS will be used in the development of the website itself. The blog pages' headlines, paragraphs, and article sections will all be created using HTML. The website will be styled with CSS to make it visually clear, uncomplicated, and easy to read. The web server will show all blog content that is directly written into HTML files.
This project's primary goal is to comprehend cloud hosting in a real-world setting. It covers installing necessary software, setting up a virtual machine, configuring basic security settings, and hosting a website on a live server. This facilitates obtaining practical experience with basic web deployment and cloud infrastructure.
Moreover, this project is simple and focused on learning the core process of hosting a website in the cloud. It demonstrates how a basic static website can be deployed and accessed online using real cloud services.
In the future, the blog can be improved by enhancing the design, adding more pages for different articles, or updating the layout for better presentation.
