Prueba Devops - Cesar Amaya

Terraform configuration that deploys a cluster of 2 web servers (using EC2 and Auto Scaling) and an application load balancer (using ELB) in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account. The load balancer listens on port 80 and returns the default apache2 index web page for the / URL.

Pre-requisites

• You must have Terraform installed on your computer.
• You must have Packer installed on your computer.
• You must have an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account.

Please note that this code was written for Terraform 0.12.x.

Quick start

Configure your AWS access keys as environment variables:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=(your access key id)
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=(your secret access key)

Build the Amazon Machine Image using Packer

packer build webserver.json
.
.
.
==> Builds finished. The artifacts of successful builds are:
--> amazon-ebs: AMIs were created:
us-east-2: ami-01bd654d746a97ad2

Deploy the code:

terraform init
terraform apply

<<Enter the image id given by Packer>>
var.ami_id
  Image ID

  Enter a value: ami-01bd654d746a97ad2

When the apply command completes, it will output the DNS name of the load balancer. To test the load balancer:

curl http://<alb_dns_name>/

Clean up when you're done:

terraform destroy
