Cloud server ECS purchase highlights 2 "New users must see _ Talk about the confusion of new users when buying a host

Users who have just come into contact with Alibaba Cloud must want to try it. Alibaba Cloud currently offers a 5-day free trial.
In fact, I think Alibaba Cloud really does not need a trial because it is too good, too fast, and too stable.
It is better to try it out or buy it. Experience the benefits of Alibaba Cloud's professional cloud products and increase website traffic!

The following is a piece of information compiled by the webmaster of this diaosi for new users of Alibaba Cloud:



What cloud server configuration do you need to choose for you?
You can also calculate the PV based on your previous website. Aliyun has a special calculation website http://www.aliyun.com/promotion/bijia?spm=0.0.0.0.LJNONy
If you don't have a website before, it is recommended to buy it for the first time. Buy a low-end configuration and use it for a while, not enough to upgrade. The configuration you bought for the
first time is very high. If you find that the performance cannot be used up, the host configuration can be reduced http://bbs.aliyun.com/read/136177 .html?
For new buyers, the host configuration of 1 core, 1G and 2M is a good choice.
If there is a site with low traffic before, you can choose 690 low-end 10G data disk

. Choose Qingdao node or Hangzhou node?
Hangzhou node belongs to the topology of East China,
Qingdao node belongs to the topology of North China
If most of your website visitors come from North China, then choose Qingdao, instead, choose Hangzhou!
I personally think that both the Hangzhou node and the Qingdao node use BGP multi-line computer rooms, and the quality is similar, but the location is different. The
test machine currently defaults to the East China Qingdao node

. Which system LINUX or WIN should I choose?
The website is PHP, no doubt must choose LINUX  
If the memory is less than 2G, choose centos 32-bit 5.4. If the memory is above 2G, choose centos 64-bit 6.3
. For website asp, choose win2003. Most
of the newly bought friends do not know much about LINUX operation .
Is it good? The
reason is very simple. There is a thing called the control panel. This is very helpful for friends who are new to the LINUX system. There is
no need to set anything, and it will be installed with a few commands.
After that, the site will all be operated in the control panel. , such as site building, decompression, system restart, port security, etc.
Everything can be operated in the control panel, as simple as using a virtual host!

What's the first thing you do after you get the host?
After the host system is installed, it will send you a text message and email. You
have the public IP and host password
, and then you can configure the host environment

. WDCP control panel for Linux host environment configuration.
First you must learn to connect to the Linux host. You can refer to the official remote connection server for Linux 

installation WDCP environment control panel 3 commands to get it directly 
First use WDCP RPM package installation command
Copy code
wget http://down.wdlinux.cn/in/lanmp_wdcp_ins.sh

Then execute
copy code
sh lanmp_wdcp_ins.sh

Wait for 10-20 minutes After the installation is complete, run the mount data disk command 
That is, mount the WWW folder where the WDCP is located to the data disk. The
automatic mount command is as follows.
Copy the code
sh /www/wdlinux/tools/wdcp_disk_xvdb.sh to finish the job


and visit http://ip:8080 Default account admin Default password wdlinux .cn
change the default mysql password management password port 8080 and port 22 to modify the OK all done!
You only need to use the following function to build a website. It is



very simple. 3 commands are used to get linux. After that, all use the wdcp panel to manage


the host windows environment. Configure Windows2003
iis mysql php zend environment configure 
windows2008 one-click installation web 
environment. For example, zkeysphp, PHPnow, Little Knight of Green Forest, etc. can also be searched on Baidu for


website testing and access.
At this time, you will find that the website domain name cannot access the IP or the website,
because Alibaba Cloud needs to be registered before it can access the host registration system http:/ /aliyun.gein.cn/

At this time, you can visit and debug the website through some visits.
