title: How to deploy Spring boot war file to Amazon Lightsail
body: <p>I am building a simple Spring Boot application that I want to deploy on a server. </p>
  
  <p>I've set up a <a href="https://amazonlightsail.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Amazon LightSail</a> Linux and installed tomcat8 and mysql-server. </p>
  
  <p>I already know how to get a war file from my project. The question is how to upload it to the server? </p>
  
  <p>I know there are Amazon tools for deploying code to EC2 instances but I have an Lightsail instance so I can't find value key pairs to couple my server with AWS codedeploy. </p>
  
  <p>Can this be done by using SSH or FTP? </p>
  
  <p>Lightsail is supposed to offer a simple management console but I can't seem to find how to deploy an application to it.</p>
