A new AWS CDK L2 construct for Amazon CloudFront Origin Access Control (OAC)
Recently, we launched a new AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) L2 construct for Amazon CloudFront Origin Access Control (OAC). This construct simplifies the configuration and maintenance of securing Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) CloudFront origins with CDK. Launched in 2022, OAC is the recommended way to secure your CloudFront distributions due to additional security features compared […]
Fault-isolated, zonal deployments with AWS CodeDeploy
In this blog post you’ll learn how to use a new feature in AWS CodeDeploy to deploy your application one Availability Zone (AZ) at a time to help increase the operational resilience or your services through improved fault isolation. Introducing change to a system can be a time of risk. Even the most advanced CI/CD […]
Multiple Load Balancer Support in AWS CodeDeploy
AWS CodeDeploy is a fully managed deployment service that automates software deployments to various compute services, such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), AWS Lambda, and on-premises servers. AWS CodeDeploy recently announced support for deploying to applications that use multiple AWS Elastic Load Balancers (ELB). CodeDeploy now supports multiple […]
Build Next-Generation Microservices with .NET 5 and gRPC on AWS
Microservices commonly communicate with JSON over HTTP/1.1. These technologies are ubiquitous and human-readable, but they aren’t optimized for communication between dozens or hundreds of microservices. Next-generation Web technologies, including gRPC and HTTP/2, significantly improve communication speed and efficiency between microservices. AWS offers the most complete platform for builders implementing microservices — and the addition of HTTP/2 and gRPC support in Application Load Balancer (ALB) provides an end-to-end solution for next-generation microservices. ALBs can inspect and route gRPC calls, enabling features like health checks, access logs, and gRPC-specific metrics. This post demonstrates .NET microservices communicating with gRPC via Application Load Balancers.
Agile website delivery with Hugo and AWS Amplify
In this post, we show how you can rapidly configure and deploy a website using Hugo (an AWS Cloud9 integrated development environment (IDE) for content editing), AWS CodeCommit for source code control, and AWS Amplify to implement a source code-controlled, automated deployment process. When hosting a website on AWS, you can choose from several options. […]
