Aim: To set up a WordPress website using AWS Lightsail and enhance its scalability and
storage capabilities by connecting it to an object storage bucket, thereby separating media files
from the main server and improving performance.

Outcomes:

By the end of this project, you will be able to:

1. Launch a WordPress site on Amazon Lightsail.

2. Configure object storage using Amazon Lightsail’s Object Storage feature.
3. Connect the WordPress site to the bucket, allowing media files (images, videos, etc.)
to be stored externally.
4. Optimize performance by offloading media content from the local server to the object
storage.
5. Understand real-world deployment techniques using cloud services.

Requirements:

1. Technical Knowledge:

• Basic understanding of WordPress and web hosting.

• Familiarity with cloud computing and AWS Lightsail.
• Basic Linux commands (for SSH access if required).

2. Tools & Services:

• AWS Account (with Lightsail enabled)

• Lightsail instance for WordPress
• Lightsail Object Storage bucket
• FileZilla or similar FTP client (optional for file management)
• WordPress plugin (like WP Offload Media Lite or Media Cloud)

3. Software/Plugins:

• WordPress installed on Lightsail

• Required WordPress plugin to integrate S3-compatible storage
• Access key & secret key for Lightsail object storage
Procedure :

Step 1: Sign up for AWS

Amazon Lightsail requires an AWS account. Sign up for AWS, or sign in to AWS if you
already have an account.

Step 2: Create a WordPress instance

Complete the following steps to get your WordPress instance up and running. For more
information, see Create a Lightsail instance.

To create a Lightsail instance for WordPress

1. Sign in to the Lightsail console.

2. On the Instances section of the Lightsail home page, choose Create instance.

3. Choose the AWS Region and Availability Zone for your instance.
 4. Choose the image for your instance as follows:
a. For Select a platform, choose Linux/Unix.
b. For Select a blueprint, choose WordPress.
5. Choose an instance plan.
A plan includes a machine configuration (RAM, SSD, vCPU) at a low, predictable
cost, plus a data transfer allowance.
6. Enter a name for your instance. Resource names:
a. Must be unique within each AWS Region in your Lightsail account.
b. Must contain 2 to 255 characters.
c. Must start and end with an alphanumeric character or number.
d. Can include alphanumeric characters, numbers, periods, dashes, and
underscores.
7. Choose Create instance.
8. To view the test blog post, go to the instance management page and copy the public
IPv4 address shown in the upper-right corner of the page. Paste the address into the
address field of an internet-connected web browser. The browser displays the test
blog post.

Step 3: Configure your WordPress instance

You can configure your WordPress instance by using a guided, step-by-step workflow, or
you can complete the individual tasks. Using either option, you will configure the following:

• A registered domain name – Your WordPress site needs a domain name that is easy
to remember. Users will specify this domain name to access your WordPress site. For
more information, see Register and manage domains for your website in Lightsail.
• DNS management – You must decide how to manage the DNS records for your
domain. A DNS record tells the DNS server which IP address or hostname a domain
or subdomain is associated with. A DNS zone contains the DNS records for your
domain. For more information, see Understanding DNS in Lightsail.
• A Static IP address – The default public IP address for your WordPress instance
changes if you stop and start your instance. When you attach a static IP address to
your instance, it stays the same even if you stop and start your instance. For more
information, see View and manage IP addresses for Lightsail resources.
• An SSL/TLS certificate – After you create a validated certificate and install it on
your instance, you can enable HTTPS for your WordPress website so that traffic that
is routed to the instance through your registered domain is encrypted using HTTPS.
For more information, see Secure your WordPress site with HTTPS on Lightsail.
Step 4: Get the admin password for your WordPress website

The default password to sign in to the administration dashboard of your WordPress website is
stored on the instance. Complete the following steps to get the password.

To get the default password for the WordPress administrator

1. Open the instance management page for your WordPress instance.

2. On the WordPress panel, choose Retrieve default password. This expands Access
default password at the bottom of the page.

3. Choose Launch CloudShell. This opens a panel at the bottom of the page.
4. Choose Copy and then paste the contents into the CloudShell window. You can either
put your cursor at the CloudShell prompt and press Ctrl+V, or you can right-click to
open the menu and then choose Paste.
5. Make a note of the password displayed in the CloudShell window. You need this to
sign in to the administration dashboard of your WordPress website.

Step 5: Sign in to the administration dashboard of your WordPress website

Now that you have the password for the administration dashboard of your WordPress
website, you can sign in. In the administration dashboard, you can change your user
password, install plugins, change the theme of your website, and more.

Complete the following steps to sign in to the administration dashboard of your WordPress
website.

To sign in to the administration dashboard

1. Open the instance management page for your WordPress instance.

2. On the WordPress panel, choose Access WordPress Admin.
 3. On the Access your WordPress Admin Dashboard panel, under Use public IP
address, choose the link with this format:

http://public-ipv4-address./wp-admin

4. For Username or Email Address, enter user.

5. For Password, enter the password obtained in the previous step.
6. Choose Log in.

You are now signed in to the administration dashboard of your WordPress website where you
can perform administrative actions. For more information about administering your
WordPress website, see the WordPress Codex in the WordPress documentation.
Additional information

Here are some additional steps that you can perform after launching a WordPress instance in
Amazon Lightsail:

• Configure WordPress with a Lightsail content delivery network

• Create a snapshot of your Linux or Unix instance
• Enable or disable automatic snapshots for instances or disks
• Create and attach additional block storage disks to your Linux-based instances

Conclusion :

In this project, we successfully set up a fully functional WordPress website on AWS Lightsail
and connected it to a Lightsail Object Storage bucket. By offloading media files to object
storage, we improved the website’s performance, scalability, and storage efficiency. This
setup not only reduces the load on the main server but also ensures faster content delivery and
easier media management. Overall, integrating Lightsail services for both hosting and storage
provides a cost-effective and powerful solution for modern web deployments.
