A set of nested AWS CloudFormation YAML templates from AWS Samples that deploy a scalable, highly available WordPress architecture on AWS. It provisions VPC, EC2 Auto Scaling, ALB, RDS, ElastiCache, EFS, CloudFront, and Route 53 resources from a single master template.

Use cases

  • deploy wordpress on aws
  • host a scalable wordpress site with cloudformation
  • set up highly available wordpress with auto scaling and rds
  • launch wordpress stack with cloudfront cdn and elasticache
  • best practice reference architecture for wordpress on aws
  • deploy wordpress in a vpc with elastic file system shared storage

When to choose

  • you want an AWS-endorsed, one-click CloudFormation deployment of WordPress
  • you need a production-grade multi-AZ WordPress setup with load balancing, caching, and shared media storage
  • you prefer infrastructure-as-code templates you can customize per stack

When to avoid

  • you deploy outside AWS or prefer Terraform/other IaC tools
  • you need a simple single-server WordPress install or shared hosting
  • you want a managed WordPress service like Lightsail or Elastic Beanstalk without managing CloudFormation stacks
