Let's get <SSH> access, instal a package, and run a server.

As of December 2023 on a `t2.micro` instance, the only one part of free tier at the time with advertised 1 vCPU, 1 GiB RAM, 8 GiB disk for the first 12 months, on <Ubuntu 22.04>:
``
$ free -h
               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:           949Mi       149Mi       210Mi       0.0Ki       590Mi       641Mi
Swap:             0B          0B          0B
$ nproc

$ df -h /
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root       7.6G  1.8G  5.8G  24% /
``

To install software:
``
sudo apt update
sudo apt install cowsay
cowsay asdf
``

Once HTTP inbound traffic is enabled on security rules for port 80, you can:
``
while true; do printf "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n\r\n`date`: hello from AWS" | sudo nc -Nl 80; done
``
and then you are able to `curl` from your local computer and get the response.
