+# JupyterHub Deployment on AWS
+Documentation on deploying JupyterHub on an AWS EC2 Instance using NGINX Plus. 
+
+>CAUTION: Document is a work-in-progress. Information found on this page is partially incomplete and may require additional research. 
+
+## Setting Up Amazon EC2 Instance
+
+### AMI
+Choose one of the following Amazon Machine Images that are compatible with NGINX Plus: 
+
+* NGINX Plus – Amazon Linux AMI (HVM)
+* NGINX Plus – Ubuntu AMI (HVM)
+* NGINX Plus – Amazon Linux AMI (PV)
+* NGINX Plus – Ubuntu AMI (PV)
+
+Refer to the [NGINX AMI Installation Guide](https://www.nginx.com/resources/admin-guide/setting-nginx-plus-environment-amazon-ec2/) for more information.
+
+### Instance Type & Storage
+Instance type selection depends heavily on memory usage. Amazon Compute Optimized instances are recommended. 
+
+As a rule of thumb consider **100-200 MB/user** plus **5x-10x the amount of data you are loading from disk**, depending on the kind of analysis. After selecting your instance, you can add more memory and select memory type (GP2/IO1) in the 'Add Storage' page.

+
+### Configure Security Group
+The standard HTTPS and HTTP ports (80, 443) need to be opened to allow JupyterHub to be proxied by NGINX. 
+
+Additionally, in order to enable Docker containers to connect to JupyterHub port 8081 will need to be opened. Open a new 'Custom TCP Rule' and set the Source in CIDR Block Notation to: 
+> <Netword IP Address>/24
+
+Below is a reference image for the security group set-up. Depending on specific use-cases, port rules may differ and likely should not be open to 'anywhere'.  Your network IP will also differ.

+
+Refer to the [Amazon EC2 Security Groups for Linux Instances Page](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-network-security.html) for more information.
