Hey Andrew! i would like to know how to use Elasticbeanstalk to deploy a single webcommercer like opencart or any other knowing that EB already create all the steps to auto scaling and conf. i already know how to connect my instances with rds but is quiet confusing on EB. could you give me a hint here ? if i log into s3 where should i upload my app (folder) etc. Thanks in advance.
What I would do is have a server that you deploy from that has your application already installed on it. Using the eb deploy command you can have your staging server already connected to your database in RDS and when you deploy it out all your servers should have the correct config files deployed out.
You wouldn't want to store RDS passwords etc in S3 that would be unsafe. So having config files on a staging server that you deploy out would work :)
I really like it alot! Definitely has some good use cases for sure it all depends on how it would fit in your environment :) I plan to do a tutorial on that in the future as well!
Copy the wp-config.php to the second server is missing on you video Wordpress In The Cloud [Part 3/6] The other server doesn't have wordpress. going too fast, loopholes to learn. Big concussion with this video
Your ELK tutorial was very good. However, I'd really like to see a tutorial on a logging solution that ingests Cloudtrail and Config logs. For example using the Splunk App on AWS. This would be helpful for people that are trying to setup monitoring and logging solutions to pass audits.
