Pre-requistes:
Make sure instance has at least 2 GB RAM memory(for EC2 at least small instance)
Open port 8111 in security firewall.

We need to set up some database for storing all the build information. For this exercise, lets us use Postgres:

Postgres Installation
sudo apt-get update
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ `lsb_release -cs`-pgdg main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list'

sudo systemctl enable postgresql
sudo systemctl start postgresql

Change the password for postgres user by entering below command
sudo passwd postgres
Enter any password but do remember the password and confirm the same password
su - postgres
createuser teamcity

Switch to sql shell by entering
psql
ALTER USER teamcity WITH ENCRYPTED password 'password';
CREATE DATABASE teamcity OWNER teamcity;
