How to proxy web apps using nginx?

Virtual Hosts on nginx (CSC309)

When hosting our web applications, we often have one public IP address (i.e., an IP address visible to the outside world) using which we want to host multiple web apps. For example, one may wants to host three different web apps respectively for example1.com, example2.com, and example1.com/images on the same machine using a single IP address.

How can we do that? Well, the good news is Internet browsers

Easily change instance types on AWS EC2 with a bash script
#!/bin/bash
# Nico Snyman, [email protected], 14/05/2015
# Change an instance type, while keeping snapshots
# This script will stop an instance identified by instance ID,
# take snapshots of all atached volumes, and restart it
# Use:
# -i instance ID - REQUIRED - stored in instance_id
# -t instance new instance type - REQUIRED - stored in instance_type
# -s if set to 0, no snapshot will be taken, dafault is 1
# (take snapshot of attached volumes) - stored in snapshot
