The good news is, based on the diagram looking like it’s straight from AWS docs, there’s a Cloud formation template for all that.
Bad news, good luck troubleshooting any of it if something breaks
Easy peasy

More good news: There are lots of hosts simpler hosts that are more deserving of your money than Jeff Bezos.

Name and shame. I’d love go start a new home project without bezobucks limiting what I can afford.

I’m a huge fan of Fly.io. I deal with Kubernetes on AWS all day at work; Fly gives me the power of Kubernetes without the configuration hell that comes along with it. I just Dockerize my app and push it up.

Shouln’t AWS do this?
daniyyel@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Arstechnica runs on WordPress on AWS, and they have a really nice series of articles about it. Sure, you could use just one EC2 instance for everything, but on a high traffic website you would need a bit more.
agressivelyPassive@feddit.de 1 year ago
But how many sites really are high traffic?
That’s the thing with almost all of the cloud stuff: reasonable at scale, but overcomplicated garbage for 95% of the users.
gornius@lemmy.world 1 year ago
95%? More like 99.999%, considering how many Wordpress sites are there.
llama@midwest.social 1 year ago
Gets a $3000 bill because they picked the wrong instance type.

Sir, I don’t understand. Who needs a sysadmin in the cloud anyway? All you gotta do is push a button, sir.

The equivalent of “just
configure && make && make installbro, it’s super easy”(it never is)
______@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Do you ever make install for minutes just to have it crash at the end because you missed a completely random C dependency?
Nereuxofficial@programming.dev 1 year ago
And then you find out you have that dependency but your linker decides to not take it and then you have it but a slightly other version and you decide it’s not worth it

Gotta do that for my blog. It’ll score me my next job. Might cost me $300 a month for a blog no one reads.

Try DO AppEngine and Hugo, free static site, and image hosting w CDN for … $5 a month for the bucket.

If a basic Wordpress on aws (no load balancers or auto scaling) is all you need… it is super easy to run on aws. Like a few clicks easy. https://aws.amazon.com/lightsail/projects/wordpress/
AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 year ago
But then, why use AWS?
slazer2au@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Because how else do you tick off Cloud presence in your business bingo?
ikidd@lemmy.world 1 year ago
You might have too much money and wish to get rid of a large portion of it to Jeff Bezos?

Been out of the game a long time. Is Wordpress still used heavily or are people shifting to other platforms? For all the easy power it had, it always required convincing to do what it wasn’t originally intended to do. Dunno if that’s still the case but seems it.
sfcl33t@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
I had the same impression until recently. It’s now evolved into a high end, professional content management system and a ton of very high traffic sites use it. Wired runs on WordPress. Here are some other sites
funkajunk@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Oh yeah, it’s used extensively. It’s far and away the most popular CMS.

Just load up a Terraform template and all that is abstracted away.

From my personal experience, AWS is extremely powerful (especially on security and networking). If you cross the learning curve, and know automation or Infrastructure as Code (e.g. Terraform) then it’s fast and easy to build almost any architecture.
But yes, it’s overkill for a simple website or a simple setup (if one is not familiar with AWS).

Why not manually configure a LAMP stack, editing your dotfiles with ed?
takeda@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I love it, because it is not an over exaggeration like it happens most of the time with memes, but actual, real diagram for WordPress.
qaz@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I didn’t even notice that, that’s amazing
hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year ago
Well yeah, but it has little more consideration than just a RPI sitting on your table.
