 - There is a section for standard droplets and another for more expensive optimized droplets. In general, you should not need optimized droplets.
-- The **size** option affects a few things, but the most important is the amount of memory available to your server. Memory does not affect storage space, it sets the amount of "thinking room" the server gets while it's working on things. If you don't expect many forms to be submitted at once and you don't expect many large media attachments, you can start with 1 GB. Higher-load servers and servers which handle many image or video attachments may need 2 GB or more. It is pretty easy to upgrade to a larger size later.

 - The datacenter region selects where physically your server will be located. If you have security concerns, this is your chance to decide which country hosts your data. Otherwise, generally selecting the option with closest geographic proximity to your users is a good idea.
 - If you are technically savvy and understand what an SSH key is, there is a field here that you will want to fill in. If not, don't worry about it.

 Amazon Web Services (AWS) is one of the many other options for installing Central. It's a good idea to read through the :doc:`instructions we've provided <central-install-digital-ocean>` for DigitalOcean, as many of the steps remain the same or similar.
 
-To obtain a server you will need to first `create an AWS account <https://aws.amazon.com/>`_. When launching your instance, select the Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS AMI in step 1.

 When adjusting the security settings open up the ports for SSH, HTTP, and HTTPS. Once you have launched your instance, go to the Elastic IPs menu option under Network & Security, then allocate a new address and associate it with your server in order to keep the IP address for your server consistent.
