This is my final project for the IaC course as part of prerequisites to complete the ALX-Udacity Cloud DevOps Engineer Program.
As your final project, you'll be faced with a real scenario.
Creating this project will give you the hands-on experience you need to confidently talk about infrastructure as code. We have chosen a realistic scenario where you will deploy a dummy application (a sample JavaScript or HTML file) to the Apache Web Server running on an EC2 instance.
There will be two parts to this project:
Diagram: You'll first develop a diagram that you can present as part of your portfolio and as a visual aid to understand the CloudFormation script. Script (Template and Parameters): The second part is to interpret the instructions and create a matching CloudFormation script. Starter Code
In this project, you’ll deploy web servers for a highly available web app using CloudFormation. You will write the code that creates and deploys the infrastructure and application for an Instagram-like app from the ground up. You will begin with deploying the networking components, followed by servers, security roles and software. The procedure you follow here will become part of your portfolio of cloud projects. You’ll do it exactly as it’s done on the job - following best practices and scripting as much as possible.
