I’ve moved my blog to a new hosting solution and changed the URL in the process. I still am moving old posts from my wordpress blog over into the new site but its a fairly slow and tedious process so you should expect the backlog to fill out over the next few weeks.

But what is the new hosting solution and how does it all work?

I’m now using Hugo to build my website and deploying it using some AWS services on my personal AWS account.

You should be able to see the cloudformation stack I used to deploy this Here

In the future I’m going to write some real quick github action scripts to actually deploy the thing but for right now commands for deploying the stack and monitoring it are in the commands.sh file. The actual CF file itself is in the src folder.

I’m going to make a post sometime during this week on the actual architecture of the cloud aspect of it but for right now I just wanted to have at least one post up explaining what is happening and if you’re coming here for the first time in a while give you some explanation on why things look a little different from how you remember them.

Stay well.
