- | - An account on AWS (visit Amazon Web Services and create an account https://aws.amazon.com/ You will have to put credit card details in, but you won't be charged for your first year). This is optional but might save some time on the night. If you'd rather use a different service (like Google or Digital Ocean) then feel free to go with them rather than AWS. We'll try to assist you on the night. | + | |
