A DevOps engineer needs to configure a blue green deployment for an existing three-tier application. The application runs on Amazon EC2 instances and uses an Amazon RDS database The EC2 instances run behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and are in an Auto Scaling group.

The DevOps engineer has created a launch template and an Auto Scaling group for the blue environment. The DevOps engineer also has created a launch template and an Auto Scaling group for the green environment. Each Auto Scaling group deploys to a matching blue or green target group.

A company is migrating an application to Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). The company wants to consolidate log data in Amazon CloudWatch in the us-west-2 Region. No CloudWatch log groups currently exist for Amazon ECS.

The company receives the following error code when an ECS task attempts to launch:

“service my-service-name was unable to place a task because no container instance met all of its requirements.”

The ECS task definition includes the following container log configuration:

" logConfiguration " : {

" logDriver " : " awslogs " ,

" options " : {

" awslogs-create-group " : " true " ,

" awslogs-group " : " awslogs-mytask " ,

" awslogs-region " : " us-west-2 " ,

" awslogs-stream-prefix " : " awslogs-mytask " ,

" mode " : " non-blocking " ,

" max-buffer-size " : " 25m "

}

}

A development team manually builds a local artifact. The development team moves the artifact to an Amazon S3 bucket to support an application. The application has a local cache that must be cleared when the development team deploys the application to Amazon EC2 instances. For each deployment, the development team runs a command to clear the cache, download the artifact from the S3 bucket, and unzip the artifact to complete the deployment.

To run an application, a DevOps engineer launches an Amazon EC2 instance with public IP addresses in a public subnet. A user data script obtains the application artifacts and installs them on the instances upon launch. A change to the security classification of the application now requires the instances to run with no access to the internet. While the instances launch successfully and show as healthy, the application does not seem to be installed.
