1. Setting Up an AWS EC2 Instance
Step 1: Choose an AWS Instance
1. Log in to AWS and navigate to the EC2 Dashboard.
2. Click Launch Instance and choose an OS (Ubuntu 22.04 recommended for Odoo 17).
3. Select an instance type (e.g., t3.medium or t3.large for production use).
Step 2: Configure Key Pair & Security Group
Key Pair: Create or use an existing key pair for SSH access.
Security Group: Configure inbound rules:
o SSH: Open port 22 (only for your IP for security).
o HTTP/HTTPS: Open ports 80 & 443 (for web access).
o PostgreSQL (optional): Open port 5432 (if using a remote database).
Step 3: Attach Elastic IP (Recommended for Static IP)
1. Go to Elastic IPs under Networking & Security.
2. Allocate a new Elastic IP and associate it with your EC2 instance.
Step 4: Connect to Your AWS Instance
Use SSH from your terminal:
ssh -i your-key.pem ubuntu@your-instance-ip
Update the server:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
