### Objective
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CloudPress is a project designed to provide hands-on experience in deploying a WordPress website with MariaDB on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud platform. The goal is to utilize Terraform for infrastructure creation and Ansible for application installation, resulting in a production-ready setup.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Upon completion of this project, you'll achieve:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- A robust AWS environment primed for hosting WordPress and MariaDB orchestrated through Terraform.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Seamless installation and configuration of Linux, Nginx, MariaDB, PHP, and WordPress using Ansible.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Implementation of security protocols, performance optimizations, and meticulous documentation, ensuring a fully-fledged production-level WordPress site.
|
||
|
|
|
