- username and password
- username and key (private key with us and public key with linux)
- To login into vm the ssh command
ssh -i <path to pem file> <username>@<ipaddress>
AWS
- In AWS the service to create vms is called as EC2
- The OS is chosen by AMI (Amazon Machine Image)
- number of vCPUs and RAM size is chosen by instance size
- The size which is free for 750 hours is t2.micro (t3.micro)
- SSH Private Key and public key is managed by AWS EC2 key pairs
- Follow the steps below to create an ec2 instance
- Now lets connect using ssh
ssh -i <path to pem file> username@ipaddress
