Choosing the best AWS solution

0

I'm developing a Java web application, based on Spring boot, which stores data in a MySql DB instance (single instance). It's a "light" application, in terms of use of resources.

What I need is a virtual machine hosting a Linux Ubuntu installation, having the following features:

  • Cpu with 4/8 core (no need for high clock rate).
  • 8 GB RAM.
  • 20 GB HD.

I don't need huge resources, as you see.

Moreover, the virtual machine has to run as ftp server.

Which is the solution that best fits my needs?

Thank you,

Andrea

Hi A,

I would look into T3 EC2 instances: https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/t3/

For your requirements, t3 small, medium or large could suffice.

Hope it clarifies

    Hi alatech, thank you for your suggestion. Do you think a t3 instance could also act as ftp server?

    Hey, yes I think is an option, at least I have seen some people achieve it:(https://medium.com/tensult/configure-ftp-on-aws-ec2-85b5b56b9c94). Bear in mind thought that even thought you ll have more control, then you ll have to maintain it yourself. Other options in AWS are Transfer Family and even S3 with a FTP client as WinSCP or Cyberduck.

    If you believe the above has helped you with your choice, I'd appreciate if the answer can be accepted so that community can benefit for clarity, thanks A!

Hi A MY name is Han. Hope you have a good day. If your app uses a lot of cpu resources. I recommend gp3 this has free 3000 IOPS about EBS . I recommend you use c6a.xlarge and m6a.xlarge. Because T series has certain restrictions on CPU resources ，you can click this url obtain It‘s details https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/burstable-credits-baseline-concepts.html
