Welcome to our MediaWiki Installation Instructions using AWS EC2 Instance.
We will break down how we installed our Instance, and set up MediaWiki so you can create your own.
VPC and Subnets Creation
VPC Creation
To start, you will want to log in to your AWS account and go to your VPC dashboard. Here we will create a new VPC Give it a name that will help you identify it and use and IPv4 CIDR that will give you enough IP addresses. You can use a /24 CIDR if you will only be doing a few sites.
Subnet Creation
Once you have the VPC created, we will want to create three subnets. These subnets will divide your CIDR into smaller segments that you can use for different purposes. We will use one our public subnet, which will route to the internet. The other two will be used for our databse. AWS RDS requires two subnets in different availability zones for Mutli-AZ failover, read replicas and automated backups. Even if you are not using any of this, AWS still requires the infrastructure (subnets) to be in place. Under your VPC dashboard, select Subnets.
