AWS CloudFront CDN for Global Global Static content

AWS Route53 DNS Attach domain name Us-east-1 Route custom
to APIs domain url to
Application
 Note: Route53 was not fully configured or tested because of the requirement for
custom domain purchase.
 Hosting of Application Source Code can be achieved via multiple ways

o Public Source control systems – Github/Bitbucket –
 Updating source code with public source control systems is the most
straight forward way.
o S3 Bucket
 We can host our application source in S3 bucket as well
o Custom AMI – The issue with this is that updating source code will be a challenge
 For this assessment perspective, we will be using AWS S3 bucket
 Create a S3 bucket with no public access and upload application source code to it
o
Create Launch Configuration
 Create new Launch Configuration
o User Data for EC2 Configuration
 sudo yum update -y
 sudo yum install -y https
 sudo yum install git
 sudo systemctl start http
 sudo systemctl enable httpd
 sudo chmod 0777 /var/www/html
 S3 – Primary

 unzip healthcare.zip -d /var/www/html/
 GIT - OPTIONAL
 git clone
 cp capstone-aws-healthcare/* /var/www/html/

 Create Launch configuration from an existing EC2 Instance

 Create VPC – name it as capstone-hc-vpc



 Create Subnets in the newly create VPC
 2 Public Subnets
 2 Private Subnets
o
 Enable Auto-assigning of public IP for Public Subnets alone
o
 Till this time, there’s no difference between the subnets create (public vs private)
 Next step is to make the public subnets publicly accessible, for this we’d need to create
an internet gateway for our VPC
 Create Internet Gateway
o
 Attach Internet gateway to our VPC
 Next we’d need to setup traffic rules for our internet gateway, for this we’d need to
create Two Routing tables .
 Create Public and Private Route Table
o Create a route table
o Add a route to internet for our internet gateway
o
o Next, in order to make our Subnets publicly accessible, we’d need to associate
them to the Public Route Table
 Similarly, Add Private subnets to private route table

o
o For Private route table, there wont be any route to internet but only local route
 Create Security Groups for Incoming Traffic
 Security Group 1 – Allows Incoming HTTP traffic to Load Balancer
 Security Group 2 – Allows Traffic from Load Balancer


 Create Launch Configuration
o Choose the AMI created in STEP #1
o Choose Instance Type as T2.Micro (or others as suited)
o Choose Security Group as – “capstone-hc-autoscale-sg”
o
 Create AutoScaling Group – Highly available
o Choose Launch configuration created in previous step
o Select custom VPC that we created earlier
o Select private subnets for high availability
o Don’t attach load balancer at this time.
o Setup Capacities
 Desired – 2
 Minimum – 1
 Maximum – 4
o
o
 Create a Load Balancer for public Access
o Load Balancer would also require a Target Group, next we will need create
Target Group
o
o Create Load Balancer

 Select our VPC created in previous steps
 And Associate LB with public subnets in each availability zones

 Assign the load balance Security Group for Load Balancer
 And assign listeners to the target group in load balancer

 Associate Auto Scaling group to Target Group

 At this time point, let’s make sure that the Target Groups is healthy

 Create new hosted zone in Route53

 Configure CloudFront for global distribution –
 With this our Highly available healthcare app is up and running across multiple edge
locations
 Edge locations are selected as part part of cloud front distribution creation
