Minecraft Server Deployment Automation

Introduction

In this tutorial, we will walk through the process of automatically deploying a Minecraft server on an AWS EC2 instance using Terraform and Ansible. This includes setting up the EC2 instance, configuring security groups, installing necessary dependencies, and ensuring the server starts automatically. By the end, you'll be able to connect to your Minecraft server from the Minecraft client.

Requirements

  • AWS CLI configured with your credentials
  • Terraform
  • Ansible
