There are several ways to deploy a Spring application on AWS, such as using EC2 or Elastic Beanstalk. Often, Nginx is used as a reverse proxy to forward requests to your Spring Boot app running on the instance. It helps with load balancing, handling HTTPS, caching, and improving performance.
In my step-by-step video, I cover:
✔ Packaging the Spring Boot application
✔ Launching and configuring an EC2 instance
✔ Installing Java and running the application
✔ Setting up Nginx as a reverse proxy
✔ Configuring SSL with Let's Encrypt
✔ Setting security groups and permissions
