How to access amazon instance using localhost instead ip address?

Question

I create instance of amazon server. Now i can access it using ip address. But i do not want to access amazon instance using ip address. So, any way to access amazon instance without ip from URL.

Like currently i access in URL EX: http://23.23.23.23/index.html I want to access in URL EX: http://localhost:8888/index.html 8888 is just for example. Any port is ok. or any other name instead localhost is fine for me.

Let me know asap any one has a solutions or suggestion

Thanks

Try the Public DNS of the instance. This gives you a name instead of an IP. enter image description here

Buy a domain name and make your instance available using domain name.
