How to Install LEMP on Google Cloud Server
This article shows you how to install the LEMP stack on a Google Cloud server running Ubuntu Linux.
Connect to your Google Cloud server via SSH. Install Nginx, then PHP, and finally MySQL or MariaDB using apt commands. This completes the LEMP stack installation.
LEMP is a popular web server software collection, short for Linux, Nginx (pronounced ‘Engine-x’), MySQL/MariaDB, and PHP/Perl/Python. It forms the foundation for many high-traffic websites and applications you use daily.
You’ll set up Nginx, the high-performance web server, configure your database, and integrate PHP processing. This tutorial assumes you’ve already registered a domain and set up your Google Cloud instance with Ubuntu.
