Magento on AWS: Magento Quick Start

This is official Amazon Web Services (AWS) documentation for the Magento Quick Start. This Quick Start automatically deploys Magento Community Edition on the AWS Cloud. Magento is an open-source content management system for e-commerce websites. This automated deployment builds a cluster that runs Magento along with optional sample data, which lets you experiment with custom themes and view the web store. This Quick Start deploys Magento using AWS CloudFormation templates and offers two options: you can build a new AWS infrastructure for your Magento stack, or deploy Magento into your existing AWS infrastructure. The deployment uses MySQL on Amazon RDS for database operations, Amazon EFS for shared storage between EC2 instances, and an Amazon ElastiCache cluster with the Redis cache engine to improve application load times. See the Quick Start deployment guide for step-by-step instructions and architectural details. The deployment guide is offered here as a free Kindle book, or you can read it online or in PDF format; see https://aws.amazon.com/quickstart/architecture/magento/.
