EC2 Dashboard

A better dashboard to manage your EC2 instances

EC2 Dashboard launched on December 20, 2021 with 74 votes, #735 of 2,707 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 4 years on.

What it does

I made a better dashboard to manage my EC2 instances that achieves various common functionalities I perform on a frequent basis through 1-2 clicks max like starting/stopping instances and updating Security Group Rules.

Above all, what I also hate about AWS's is how each link click is a full page navigation, and some of the above tasks take about 2-3 clicks. Yes I'm aware that there is a CLI available, but I still prefer mouse clicks and a good UI/UX and everything so I built this.

    Hey HN: I'm Kaveh, the founder of Usage (https://www.usage.ai/) We help companies drive down AWS costs. Why? Because the way it's done now is a pain. Stakeholders, especially engineers, are required to spend unnecessary time manually finding underutilized or overly expensive EC2s. We believe the optimization process should be done automatically through a series of sophisticated algorithms. At the moment, there are over 70,000 AWS EC2 prices - doing that manually just won't scale at most organizations. My background is in software engineering. Previous to founding Usage, I…

    Hey! I'm Andrei. I got frustrated by how people tend to build overcomplicated backend systems, being "motivated" by big tech case studies and popular books. So, I started exploring lean architecture, and building my digital garden of ideas, approaches and data that align with this direction. Here I want to present one of the tools – Sizing tool for PostgreSQL. I've benchmarked PostgreSQL on different EC2 instances and disks, with different initial data sets to see performance that these instances can give you. And I've built a tool to visualize this data, which I welcome you to explore. So,…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
