To connect with Amazon AWS you need to use a key. Usually that key is protected with a password. Because it is not possible to use Ansible with a password protected key some configuration is necessary.

The idea is to fully script the creation of a WordPress server including the database on CentOS 8 and Amazon Web Services. For this Ansible will be used. I will describe this in several steps/posts.

Step 1 Create the Linux server
Step 1 is to create the Linux server from a bastion host within AWS. For now we will use CentOS 7 because CentOS 8 is not availabe. Later it will be changed for CentOS 8.

To get some hands on experience with OpenShift I have installed OpenShift 4.1 on AWS using the defaults.
