Introduction
In this scenario, DTGOV is deciding to shift its business on the cloud. So in this scenario, a
website is developed using WordPress on the cloud. The AWS cloud is used to host the
website. This website will be used to set up a communication link between employees and
higher authorities. This scenario involves launching a WordPress host available on the
Amazon web services (Ryan & Lucifredi, 2018).
