Prepare hands-on tutorial for deploying the app to AWS Elastic Beanstalk

[addianto]

Description

I was assigned to prepare four learning modules on Cloud Computing subject as part of Ministry of Communication & Informatics Republic of Indonesia (Kominfo)'s DTS FGA program. For each module, I have to prepare a presentation slide (slidedeck) and a hands-on practical document. Out of four modules, I have finished one hands-on about setting up AWS account. The remaining three modules are as follows:

• Application Deployment

  Given a Web app source code, student should be able to deploy it via AWS Elastic Beanstalk

• Automated Application Deployment

  Given a Web app source code and infrastructure definition, student should be able to prepare a CI/CD pipeline to automate infrastructure provisioning and application deployment

• Designing Resilient Architectures

  I'm still not sure on the overall activities and topic to teach. The syllabus mentions something about Amazon Simple Queue Service. Meanwhile, the slidedeck talks about reliability, caching, availability, etc.

Tasks

• Setting up
  • Create a new branch to contain the codebase variant for FGA DTS hands-on.
  • Document hands-on instructions as Wiki document
• Hands-on: Application Deployment
  • Describe drag-n-drop deployment process to Elastic Beanstalk via AWS Management Console
  • Describe WSGI path mismatch in the original source code with the expected path required by the platform
  • Describe deployment process via aws CLI
