In this lab, you will create a highly available web application by integrating Amazon EC2, Elastic Load Balancing, Auto Scaling, and Amazon RDS. The exercise will guide you through setting up an Auto Scaling group to handle variable traffic loads, configuring a load balancer for distributing client requests, and deploying an RDS database instance to persist application data. You will ensure that your infrastructure complies with best practices for high availability and fault tolerance, using security measures such as IMDSv2 and encryption.
In this lab, you will create a robust and scalable architecture using Auto Scaling and Load Balancing. You will configure an EC2 instance fleet behind an Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) and use Auto Scaling policies to ensure availability. The lab emphasizes on setting up health checks to ensure fault tolerance and minimize downtime. By completing this lab, you will gain practical experience in ensuring high availability, scalability, and resilience of applications hosted in AWS.

In this lab, you will learn how to configure a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) with both public and private subnets. You will set up a NAT Gateway to enable instances in a private subnet to access the Internet securely. Additionally, you will configure security groups and network ACLs to enhance the security posture of your VPC. This exercise will reinforce best practices for network isolation and resource accessibility, vital for any associate-level AWS CloudOps professional. You will gain hands-on experience in configuring essential network components on AWS, helping you build a secure, compliant environment. The skills gained from this exercise are directly applicable to real-world scenarios where networking and security are paramount.
In this lab, you will learn how to optimize network architectures by configuring a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) with private subnets for backend services and public subnets for internet access, complemented by Amazon CloudFront for content delivery. You will employ Route 53 for DNS management and ensure security and performance optimization across the network components. This setup is essential for providing secure and efficient network communications in a scalable cloud environment.

In this lab, you'll learn how to automate the backup of EC2 instances using AWS Backup. You will configure a backup plan that automatically backs up your EC2 instances at regular intervals. This lab provides practical insights into setting up AWS Backup with real-world considerations for scaling and maintenance. Additionally, you will explore lifecycle policies to retain backups efficiently.
This lab focuses on deploying a scalable web application using AWS services, emphasizing provisioning and automating resource management. You will set up an Amazon EC2 instance behind an Elastic Load Balancer and configure Auto Scaling to dynamically adjust to traffic demands. This exercise helps in understanding critical aspects of resource scaling and load distribution, which are essential for maintaining high availability and performance under varying load conditions.
