title: Install Gitlab on AWS
body: <p>My company has a master codebase and several instances of the same codebase i.e company.com/instance1, company.com/instance2, company.com/instance3 and so on running on AWS and a mysql database.</p>
  
  <p>I thought it would help if we install gitlab on AWS as it would simplify our overall developement process. Is this a good idea ?. </p>
  
  <p>I am confused as to whether we have to install centOS on AWS to install gitlab or does gitlab will work on AWS without centos.</p>
  
  <p>I am puzzled as in my local centos system i have installed gitlab locally and i have trouble setting up URL's. </p>
  
  <p>The users need to type company.com/instance to get what is required and already people have started using it on AWS.  </p>
  
  <p>May be i have do CI and deploy the code on AWS ? How does this work?</p>
  
  <p>Will gitlab work well in LAMP environment on an already existing AWS server instance? how to go about the same?</p>
