!!!Hosting a wiki server on an Amazon AWS EC2 instance

So, this bliki thang is running on a [reserved Amazon EC2 t2.micro instance|https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/]. The only part of that link that isn't explained by the link is "reserved".  Reserved instances are basically paying the bulk price for server minutes: you commit to a year or three of uptime, pay up front, and get a pretty big discount.  So, basically, you get a server on the internet for not much money, and it'll never crash (where "never" means "99.999% chance of it never happening", if I can be sloppy with probability).

!!Maintenance

Looks like you can update all software via {{aptitude}}.  Keystrokes: {{U}} (uppercase), followed by {{g}}.

(Don't know if this handles kernel updates.)
