AWS Windows Server Setup
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I need a seasoned AWS professional to spin up and configure a fresh Windows Server instance in my AWS environment. You’ll advise on the most appropriate edition (2016, 2019, or 2022) based on stability, licensing, and feature set, then launch the EC2 instance, size it correctly, and apply best-practice security groups, key pairs, and RDP settings.
Once the machine is running, please harden it (firewall, Automatic Updates, basic monitoring), install any core roles I request—chiefly IIS for future web hosting—and verify that I can connect over RDP without exposing unnecessary ports to the public internet. A concise hand-off document covering every step, instance details, and rollback instructions should complete the engagement.
Deliverable acceptance:
• Windows Server online and reachable via RDP
• Security groups tightened to least privilege
• IIS (or another requested role) installed and tested
• Clear, repeatable setup documentation supplied
If this sounds routine for you, let’s get started right away.
