We have our machines that we want to deploy to on AWS private subnet and we connect to them via VPN.
We want to use Azure Devops to build and deploy our code. Is there a way to deploy from Azure Devops to AWS machines through VPN?
Make sure your machine can access dev.azure.com, then you can try AWS Toolkit for Azure DevOps extension to work with AWS services.
Also, you can install one self-agent on your machine so that you can run the pipeline in your local environments.
I want to know the possibility of having a application server (linux machine) spinned up using ecs ?
I.e An Ec2 instance running an application which serves user requests .
To be more clear.. can we spin up a ec2 via a container ?
I am trying to deploy my sample Spring Cloud Microservice into AWS ECS service. I found that Fargate method and EC2 launch method. Here actually I am looking for to launch ECS service from my own EC2 instance. Now I have only Ubuntu 16.04 AMI. I am planning to use AWS ECS optimized AMI as my EC2. So I need to launch ECS using my own EC2. So I am confused about the launching by optimized my own EC2.
I am seeking useful links or documentation for launching using above method. Since I am beginning stage on AWS Cloud.
The AMI you've configured for your instance doesn't matter (generally). Once your EC2 instance is created, go over to the ECS section of AWS and create a cluster containing your host.
In ECS you need to define a task containing your container, the repo to pull it from, and all the other necessary details. From here you can go to your cluster and launch your task on your host, either manually, or by defining a service to automate the launching for you.
I have an aws ec2 instance ( Ubuntu 14.04 ) and I have some data in it.
Also I have IBM System X 3550 machine on which Ubuntu is installed. I want copy the data from AWS instance IBM. What way you recommend ?
Use elastic ip of amazon machine and use scp.
The developer tools page here list two set of tools for Amazon EC2
Amazon EC2 API tools
Amazon EC2 AMI tools
What are the differences between the two set of tools?
The API tools serve as the client interface to the Amazon EC2 web service. Use these tools to register and launch instances, manipulate security groups, and more
The Amazon EC2 AMI Tools are command-line utilities to help bundle an Amazon Machine Image (AMI), create an AMI from an existing machine or installed volume, and upload a bundled AMI to Amazon S3.
From the definitions shown at Developer Tools.
So, if you want to manage instances, use API tools; if you want to build and upload an AMI (Amazon Machine Image), use AMI tools.
Here are the lines from Amazon Documentation:
The Amazon EC2 command line interface tools (also called the CLI tools) wrap the Amazon EC2 API actions. These tools are written in Java and include shell scripts for both Windows and Linux/UNIX/Mac OSX.
Note
Alternatively, you can use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), which provides commands for a broad set of AWS products, including Amazon EC2. To get started with the AWS CLI, see the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide. For more information about the AWS CLI commands for Amazon EC2, see ec2 in the AWS Command Line Interface Reference.
Before you can use the Amazon EC2 CLI tools, you need to download them and configure them to use your AWS account. You can set up the tools on your own computer or on an Amazon EC2 instance.
