In Part 1, we installed Node on an EC2 instance on Amazon Web Services (AWS). In this part 2 of the series, we’re going to add a second instance running the popular MongoDB database.
A Node.JS Application on the Amazon Cloud. Part 1: Installing Node on an EC2 instance
In this three-part exercise, we’re going to build a web application using Javascript on both the client and server side, using Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud-hosting infrastructure and the Node.JS framework.
What we’re going to do first is install Node on an Elastic Cloud Computing (EC2) virtual server instance provided by Amazon Web Services. In the following parts of this series, we’ll add a MongoDB database instance, and develop a simple server-side web application in Javascript using the Express framework and the Mongoose library for accessing our database.
