   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

• Is this something i should worry about? Its whitelist, online mode, and the ip/user has been banned. Its been happening for a week now

  It's most likely a minecraft server detection script. I looked it up and found this, which seems to be what they used, as the name of the script and the username of the account trying to join are both "masscan". Also, they are hosted on a VPS provider called Contabo (you can look up the IP and see for yourself) in St. Louis. Source: about 1 year ago
