EC2 Fundamentals & TaskFlow Deployment Lab
Transform TaskFlow into a cloud-native application! Launch EC2 instances, configure AWS security groups, deploy TaskFlow with Docker Compose, and expose it to the internet with nginx. Master real-world cloud deployment patterns used by platform engineers in 2025.
Lab Overview
Deploy TaskFlow to AWS cloud infrastructure using EC2 instances. Learn cloud computing fundamentals by creating EC2 instances, configuring security groups, installing Docker, deploying TaskFlow with docker-compose, and configuring nginx as a reverse proxy for production access.
