GameEnthusiasticDB

ethugamedb.com can display info of a game just fine now, but it lacks transparency. I am still testing the water with a close eye on resources and server costs.

Working on adding more organic content on each game and begin to share it on popular places.

I add the site to Analytic a while ago. Not much visitors yet as I haven't actively promoted the site. Currently, re-touch on the core features.
Also add this to GG search console to follow the best practice of web owner, as well as use this to track my growth.

After struggling with AWS Elastic Beanstalk for almost a day. I finally deployed my application to the cloud!

Mapping the existing domain take me another 15 minutes, and bam, now it's live.

The page is a little blank at the moment, but it will be populated with content soon enough!

This is hard! Compare to the Heroku option when it comes to Rails application. I picked AWS Elastic Beanstalk as I want to know more about working on the cloud.

But the process involve a lot of small customization and minor tweak that are not in the official document. It took me ~10 hours to figure out how to deploy my existing source to the Elastic Beanstalk environment.

But it was worth the time! I learn about the following AWS Services:

• AWS RDS
• AWS Elastic Beanstalk
• AWS Route 53!

Added an administration mode for moderator to manage database via UI.

This is one of the key functions before the app can go live. Admin mode will be used to periodically uploade new content as well as manage existing data for the web application.

Grab a .com domain name on AWS for my project.
Why AWS? This is also to level up my knowledge on building a cloud-base-focus product. At the end of the day, regardless of the outcome of this web app, I still have gathered a lot of experience in developing a new product from scratch!
