Loading...Introduction to Deploying Laravel on AWS
Last quarter, our team discovered that deploying a Laravel application on AWS required more than just following the official documentation. We had to navigate through a plethora of services, from EC2 to RDS, and ensure that our application was scalable, secure, and performant. In this article, I'll share our journey, the challenges we faced, and the solutions we implemented to deploy our Laravel application on AWS.
Setting Up the AWS Environment
To start, we needed to set up our AWS environment. This involved creating an EC2 instance, configuring the security group, and setting up an RDS instance for our database. We chose to use the AWS CLI to automate the process, which made it easier to manage our resources. Here's an example of how we created our EC2 instance:
aws ec2 run-instances --image-id ami-0c94855ba95c71c99 --instance-type t2.micro --key-name my-key
Output:
{
"Instances": [
{
"InstanceId": "i-0123456789abcdef0",
"ImageId": "ami-0c94855ba95c71c99",
"InstanceType": "t2.micro",
"KeyName": "my-key"
}
]
}
Configuring the Laravel Application
Next, we needed to configure our Laravel application to work with the AWS environment.
