Teach you how to use AWS server resources for free

AWS - Amazon's cloud computing service platform

I had the honor to participate in the AWS training before. Now I will introduce some AWS usage methods to you.

This article first introduces how to use AWS server resources for free on AWS.

1. Register/Log in

Official website: https://aws.amazon.com/cn/

Registration: https://portal.aws.amazon.com/billing/signup?nc2=h_ct&src=default&redirect_url=https%3A%2F%2Faws.amazon.com%2Fregistration-confirmation&language=zh_cn#/start

Problems encountered during registration

• Select Individual as the account type
• Names and addresses cannot be in Chinese
• Country-China in the third row

• Address in English
• Many foreign companies use credit cards for real-name authentication. You can use visa/master credit cards. One dollar will be deducted first to verify the existence of the card, and it will be refunded shortly. The blogger is currently a student, so he applied for an Ele.me co-branded credit card with a credit limit of 0, and then topped up 7 yuan into it.
• Select the phone number for verification code. A phone call will be made to you for the verification code, but there may be a delay or the call may not be answered. Just try a few more times. The call came from the United States. The verification code will be read very slowly, accompanied by various noises of airplanes, cars, etc. Just listen to it.

Login: https://signin.aws.amazon.com/signin?redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fconsole.aws.amazon.com%2Fconsole%2Fhome%3Fstate%3DhashArgs%2523%26isauthcode%3Dtrue&client_id=arn%3Aaws%3Aiam%3A%3A015428540659%3Auser%2Fhomepage&forceMobileApp=0&code_challenge=MEsa6Qy5X4rE-ZjzYGfu2J09J2NU805g49N9gzoZ4B8&code_challenge_method=SHA-256

Don't register on the AWS domestic website, because that requires corporate cooperation and individuals cannot register

2. Select the region

The charges in each AWS region are different. I have done a comparison of the charges and here I recommend choosing Ohio, which is a little cheaper.

It is best to put all resources in the same area for easy management.

3. Create a server

If you haven't linked your credit card yet, it will prompt you to link it, and that's it.

Click to select ec2

Click Launch Instance

Let's start the instance directly and then talk about how to use the template later.

Click to select , mainly use the type with (free package that meets the conditions), otherwise it will cost money

Click Review and Start. Don't configure too much for getting started. We will explain how to configure it later. Please choose the free configuration with 1 core and 1G memory.

Click Start

If there is no key pair, you must create a new key pair. This key is the key for remotely connecting to this server.

Once created, download it and click Launch Instance

This creates it successfully. Let's click on this string of ids to view the specific startup status.

You can see this server in the console and click the instance ID again

You can see the server's public IP and domain name

There is a connection in the upper right corner, we click on it. Here we directly use the browser to connect remotely. Do you remember the key you just downloaded? You can use the key file to directly connect to this server through ssh tools such as xshell. The username we connect to can only be ec2-user

The connection is successful

How to shut down the server

Select the instance in the console and click Instance Status -> Terminate Instance

This article has a somewhat cursory discussion of how to use AWS to create EC2. In later chapters, EC2 and other AWS resources will be introduced in detail.

Precautions

• The free server has traffic restrictions, but there is no problem with general use
• The free time is 30 days per month, which means that if there are 31 days in a month, you should remember to shut down the server for one day.
• The billing method is instance*hour, which means that if you open two instances for one hour, you will use up two hours of free time. The minimum time unit is hour, which means that if you start and stop an instance three times within the same hour, it will be three hours.
• If you have any questions or if there are any errors in this article, please comment and point them out. I am also a newbie, but I will try my best to help you.
