High Availability Unleashed:

Introduction

Welcome to our college project – "High Availability Unleashed: Deploying Static Websites with AWS Auto Scaling, SNS, ALB, and Route 53." Imagine it as our tech adventure where we're making static websites super tough and reliable using Amazon Web Services (AWS).

In simple terms, we're learning to use AWS tools like Auto Scaling, SNS, ALB, and Route 53 to make sure websites stay up and running, no matter what.

AWS Services Requirement

EC2 for scalable computing
AMI for rapid instance provisioning.
VPC for secure networking
Security Groups for Robust Protection
Route 53 for reliable DNS
ACM for HTTPS security
Auto Scaling Group for dynamic resource management
ALB for high availability
SNS for timely notifications

What we’ll be doing

Network Environment Setup:
- Establish Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
- Define subnets for strategic segmentation
- Integrate an Internet Gateway
- Configure route tables for efficient traffic management
- Create security Groups
Website Deployment and Auto Scaling Template:
- Deploy website on Amazon EC2 instance
- Create Amazon Machine Image (AMI) for Auto Scaling template
Application Load Balancer (ALB) and Auto-Scaling Group:
- Implement ALB for intelligent traffic routing
- Distribute traffic across multiple subnets for enhanced fault tolerance
Domain Resolution with Route 53:
- Utilize Route 53 for DNS resolution
- Translate hostnames to IP addresses for seamless accessibility
HTTPS Security with ACM:
- Integrate AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) for HTTPS
- Strengthen website security and instill user trust.

Step 1: Create our environment

1. Create a VPC:

A VPC is an isolated portion of the AWS Cloud populated by AWS objects, such as Amazon EC2 instances.

2. Set Up Public Subnets:

Make two (2) public sub-areas where our EC2 instances will be kept.

subnet 2 of 2

3. Add an Internet Gateway

Include a gateway to connect our sub-areas to the internet.

4.Route Table

1.Create security group

A security group acts as a virtual firewall for your instance to control inbound and outbound traffic. To create a new security group, complete the fields below.

Step 2: Deploy EC2 and create AMI
