Directus Deployment on EC2 with VPC and IAM Integration
This deployment launches a Directus instance on an EC2 virtual machine within a private VPC. It includes IAM roles for secure access control, optional Route 53 DNS integration for domain management, and preconfigured security groups to allow safe connectivity. The AMI comes preinstalled with Directus and is ready to connect to your preferred SQL database engine, enabling immediate use of its REST and GraphQL APIs and intuitive no-code admin dashboard. This architecture is ideal for teams seeking a secure, scalable, self-hosted content and data platform on AWS.
CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."
