3. What do we expect from modern applications?

4. Modern Applications Expectations
• What do we expect from applications?
• Highly Availability
• Scalability
• Predictable Responsiveness
• Fault Tolerance
• How can we achieve this?
• Multiple datacenter facilities
• Auto-Scalable databases
• Auto-Scalable server infrastructure
• Load-Balancing
• etc.

8. Let’s start with a Web App!

9. Components of a Web App
• Three tier architecture:
• Web Server
• App Server
• Database
• Components
• Application Compute
• Database Engine
• Storage & Delivery

11. AWS Elastic Beanstalk
• Easily deploy, monitor, and scale web
applications
• Infrastructure provisioned and managed
by EB – you maintain complete control.
• Preconfigured application containers
that are easily customizable.

12. AWS Elastic Beanstalk Environment
• Two types:
• Single instance
• Load balanced, auto scalable
• Two tiers
• Web Server
• Worker
• Configures Amazon Route 53
and provides a domain name
https://yourapp.elasticbeanstalk.com

13. AWS Elastic Beanstalk Instance Configuration
Your code
HTTP server
Application server
Language interpreter
Operating system
Host
• Each EC2 instance
comes with the
necessary components
to run applications
• No more worrying about
logging into instances to
install and configure your
app stack
Focus on building your app

14. Application Versioning
Saved Configurations
Allow for easy duplication for
A/B testing or non-disruptive
deployments
Application Versions
All versions are stored
durably in Amazon S3.
Code can also be pushed
from a Git repository!

15. Deployment Options
1. Via the AWS Management Console
2. Via Git / EB CLI
3. Via the AWS Toolkit for Eclipse and
the Visual Studio IDE
$ git aws.push

16. Example: CLI workflow
Initial app deployment:
$ git init . $ git add .
Initialize your Git repository01 Add your code04
$ eb init $ git commit –m “v1.0”
Create your Elastic Beanstalk app02 Commit05
Follow the prompts to configure the
environment
03
Create the resources and launch the
application
06
$ eb create

17. Example: CLI workflow
Update your app:
Update your code01
$ git add .
$ git commit –m “v2.0”
$ eb deploy
Push the new code02
Monitor the deployment progress03
$ eb status

23. Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service)
• Scalable & fully managed object storage
• Virtually unlimited storage capacity
• Pay only for what you use
• Trillions of unique customer objects
• Millions of transactions per second
• Designed for 99.999999999% durability Amazon S3

24. Amazon S3 – Buckets and Objects
• Stored in Buckets
• Allows Versioning
• Access control lists and bucket policies
• AES-256 bit encryption at rest
• Addressable via HTTP(S) endpoint
• Ideal for static assets like images,
videos, application data, backups and
more

25. Amazon S3 – Static Content Website
• S3 becomes your static webserver
• Amazon S3 is fully managed and
scales to millions of requests
• Offload static content to S3 and
run dynamic content on EC2
(Elastic Beanstalk)

26. • One of the world’s leading social
sound platform
• Audio files must be transcoded and
stored in multiple formats
• Stores 2.5 PBs of data
• Transcoded files served from
Amazon S3
Use Case: SoundCloud

27. Amazon CloudFront
• CDN powered by 76 edge locations
across the world
• Caches content on edge locations for
low latency
• Allows Geo Targeting and Device
Detection
• Can route to different origins based
on path patterns (e.g. *.jpg  S3)

30. Software creation and distribution is
easier and faster than ever:
• Startups can now disrupt established
industries with little to no funding
• Getting your software into the hands of
millions is a download away
• Your ability to move fast is paramount to
innovate and be successful
Software Moves Faster Today

Valentino Volonghi
CTO, AdRoll
“Polling is not a scalable strategy to
figure out when new files are added to S3,
especially when you add 17M of them per
month. So we moved Lambda in front of
S3.”
