   The best cloud platform out there

   You could say a lot of things about AWS, but among the cloud platforms (and I've used quite a few) AWS takes the cake. It is logically structured, you can get through its documentation relatively easily, you have a great variety of tools and services to choose from [from AWS itself and from third-party developers in their marketplace]. There is a learning curve, there is quite a lot of it, but it is still way easier than some other platforms. I've used and abused AWS and EC2 specifically and for me it is the best.

   👍 Pros:    Great documentation|Website structure visualization|You have control over everything|Flexibility

   👎 Cons:    Learning curve|A lot of dashboards for different things

• A Brief History Of Serverless

  In 2006, Amazon launched EC2 and S3 which was the foundation of the first major cloud platform, AWS. Amazon decided to essentially provide their users with storage and virtual machines to operate. They had excess servers in their datacenters and saw this as an opportunity to make some extra money. - Source: dev.to / 13 days ago

• WpEngine - yes / no or ...?

  More recently I've been working with Kinsta. Although they are more expensive, the platform is way more developer friendly. You can manage your own deployment pipeline through GIT or use their DevKinsta development tool. They also offer application hosting. The biggest attraction to me is their support and CDN which automatically optimises images and serves WebP. Source: about 1 year ago

• Your favourite software to develop Wordpress locally on Ubuntu?

  Sorry, I thought Laragon was cross platform. DevKinsta runs on Linux. You might give it a try. It requires Docker. https://kinsta.com/devkinsta/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Wordpress

  You can use local server for development (e.g. Local WP or DevKinsta...). When you create a new website, wizard will ask you for an address - simply provide domain of old website. It will work without any problems 👍 Then when you finish new website all you need to do will be transferring files and database and update wp-config.php database connection settings 😋.
