How can I use AWS [Amazon Web Services] to sell cloud hosting?
Is there any cheaper alternative than AWS ?
Comments
If AWS has a whmcs module there you go. Otherwhise I guess there are several hosts witj a whmcs module.
You can't use AWS for selling cloud hosting. And there are a lot of much cheaper and more secure for your wallet alternatives. AWS Platform mostly used for professionals because of their infrastructure, and not their costs. AWS super big and powerful platform. One of the cheapest prices at https://ovh.com/
You advertise your hosting plan. When someone comes to you to buy a plan, you create a new VM for them.
The traffic cost is pretty high compared to low end providers. Expect to pay a few hundred dollars for a moderate traffic site.
AWS is prohibitively expensive for small fish.
Price wise AWS (2 core 8 ram no disk) 0.08/hr, whereas Scaleaway (4 core 4 ram 80GB) 0.016/hr (EU only), Linode (2 core 4 ram 80GB) 0.03/hr, Vultr (4 core 8 ram 100GB) 0.06/hr and DigitalOcean (2 core 4 ram 80GB) 0.3/hr

Don't start with AWS but start with DO if you feel save with big names.
Install cPanel on an aws instance and go bankrupt within hours.
you can use whmcs module

you could always host at bezos home for free.
I recommend using AWS Lightsail. Quite reasonable prices.
if this is true...then why people say aws is expensive?
AWS gouges you on egress bandwidth. (90%+ margin product for them)
If you ask such a question, please, don't sell hosting services.
Why are people in this thread instantly assuming that OP is a cheapo small fish with little money to spend. Maybe he is a big fish ceo who want to expand his multi millionaire hosting company because he has VVIP clients that he can't afford to lose.
three things:
That AWS price also doesn't include any disk space, all the others do.
Simple you don't
I can tell you from expierience, you can burn through millions over a weekend with AWS. And there is no price cap no matter what size your company has
..not gonna say it; I'm not that guy.
