🚀 From Bastion Hosts to Seamless Load Balancing with AWS & Terraform 🚀Hey LinkedIn community!I’ve been delving deep into AWS and Terraform, focusing on optimizing and securing my AWS infrastructure. Here are some key things I’ve learned and implemented:- Eliminating the Bastion Host with AWS Systems Manager (ssm)- Creating a Load Balancer Programmatically- Running NGINX Through Terraform- Dynamic NGINX Configuration with TerraformKey Takeaways:- Enhanced Security- Availability- Automation & EfficiencyExcited to continue exploring and refining the AWS infrastructure with these powerful tools. If you’re working on similar projects or have any tips, I’d love to hear from you!#AWS #Terraform #DevOps #CloudComputing #InfrastructureAsCode #Automation #NGINX #LoadBalancing Coding with Callie

🚀 Unlocking Secure Cloud Architectures: Connecting Private Instances Through a Bastion Host and NAT Gateway using #Terraform🔒🌐Today, I'm excited to share a hands-on guide to setting up a secure and efficient cloud environment on #AWS. This setup ensures your private instances can connect to the internet for updates and installations while remaining secure from direct access.🌟 Highlights:- Bastion Host: Securely connect to private instances.- #NAT Gateway: Enable internet access for private instances.- #NGINX Proxy: Forward traffic from public to private instances seamlessly.Step-by-Step Guide:- Infrastructure Setup: Private route table, subnet association, NAT gateway, and Elastic IP via Terraform.- NGINX Installation: Use user data scripts to install NGINX on private instances.- Secure Access: SSH into Bastion host, then private instance for management.- Proxy Configuration: Establish NGINX on public instance for secure access.- Verification: SSH into private instance via Bastion host, confirm NGINX functionality.Code snippet for NAT Gateway setup via Terraform: https://lnkd.in/gQW295sTThanks to Coding with Callie for the insightful series. More on #DeployinginPublic coming soon!

Day 1 of #cascadiajs2024 wasn’t expecting it to be so exciting. But the energy was electric. Thank you Cecilia Chimento, BSN, RN for the invite!Also feeling serious fomo for missing the latter half of the day. Gotta keep the day job! Looking forward to Day 2 tomorrow!

Started a series with Coding with Callie for Deploying in Public! I will be posting once a week regarding deploying. In the first week's challenge, we set up EC2 instances, NAT gateways, and VPC's, as well as worked with nginx to deploy an nginx page via a public EC2 instance. Huge shoutout to Daniel Neri for helping me get unstuck at a crucial point in the task. Below is my recording of running it, featuring Sophie barking. Enjoy!For more concise details on the idea behind the concept, check out Daniel Neri's post: https://lnkd.in/gvveCxdPCheck out the video here: https://lnkd.in/gJ8iCY8mNote: Outside of the challenge, a few coding things I learned just from observing another person code:- Don't always go to StackOverflow. When people write blogs, usually they have diagrams, and they put more effort into explaining how things work.- Keep tabs to a minimum, one at most if possible. You can always bookmark a site that is important. This creates less clutter!- You can scroll through terminal files! I swear I thought you could only use ‘up’ and ‘down’ arrows... Also, 'CTRL + C' to find which line you are at. #codingwithcallie #deployinpublic #aws #nginx #devops
