Marivic Estember on xCloud

A second AWS EC2 server, connected to xCloud and serving this WordPress site over HTTPS.

How this site is built

☁️

AWS EC2

marivic-xcloud: Ubuntu 24.04, t3.small, Sydney region, IP 3.104.124.74.

🧩

xCloud

Connected with “Any provider” over SSH. xCloud installed Nginx, MariaDB, Redis and PHP 8.3.

🌐

Cloudflare DNS

An A record points xcloud.marivicestember.online to the server’s IP (DNS only).

🔒

Free SSL

xCloud issued and manages the HTTPS certificate automatically.

FlyWP vs xCloud

  • Task 04: flywp.marivicestember.online, managed by FlyWP (Docker-based)
  • Task 05: xcloud.marivicestember.online, managed by xCloud (native Nginx + MariaDB)
  • Same idea: our own cloud server, a control panel to install WordPress, and Cloudflare DNS to point the name to it.
