VPS one month free trial of Amazon EC2

Basically Amazon EC2 is a private server that is standing on a cloud infrastructure. A server on EC2 commonly referred to as EC2 instance. As with any server services generally, we can install any software that we need. On this occasion, we will make a LAMP server (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) with FTP access and virtual hosts. Thus we will be able to take advantage of EC2 as an alternative to VPS and dedicated server services.

Setting up Amazon EC2 account

If you do not have AWS account, please register first.

After registration you will receive the Free Usage Tier. You obtain a free EC2 service for 750 hours a month for a year. This allows you to run an EC2 micro instance for a year for free. Micro instance has a memory of 613 MB specification and 2 ECU (short periodic bursts). Specifications are sufficient for development stage or for a website that is not too crowded.

You can choose VPS locations in the United States, Irish, tokyo, singapore or sidney. You can also choose linux or windows.

I can only use windows jd select locations in singapore windows which let its RDC connect smoothly. Select a location on the far right of the screen, after the match just click "Launch Instance". To obtain complete registration guide, you can visit Make Free VPS Server with AMAZON EC2.
