Congratulations on Completing the Second Section

In this section, we delved into Amazon EC2, which is one of the key and most important services within Amazon Web Services (AWS). EC2 provides virtual servers in the cloud, allowing users to rent computing power for various tasks such as hosting web applications, game servers, or high-performance computing servers.

We learned how to configure and use an EC2 instance, starting from selecting the appropriate OS image, configuring the instance, managing security through security groups, to launching and connecting to the instance via SSH. This gave us an understanding of how to remotely manage a server, performing various operations on it.

Special attention was paid to setting up a web server on the EC2 instance. We used Apache HTTP Server (httpd) to demonstrate how to deploy and host web pages, specifically how to transfer an HTML page from a local computer to the server using the scp command and make it accessible on the internet.

Thus, the section thoroughly describes the process of using EC2 to deploy a web server, demonstrating the flexibility and power of AWS cloud computing. This knowledge opens up broad opportunities for developers and system administrators to manage large-scale projects.

1. What is the primary use of EC2 instances?
2. Which command is used to install the Apache HTTP Server on an EC2 instance?
3. How can you ensure that httpd automatically starts after the instance is rebooted?
