Namazu Elements - Light
Overview This listing delivers a fully automated, production-ready deployment via AWS CloudFormation. Launching the template provisions all required infrastructure from scratch — no manual networking setup, no exposed SSH ports, and no external dependencies to wire together. What Gets Deployed The CloudFormation stack creates a complete, isolated environment:
VPC & Networking — A dedicated VPC with public and private subnets across availability zones, internet gateway, NAT gateway, and appropriately scoped security groups. EC2 Instance — The AMI is launched into a private subnet with no direct public internet exposure, reducing your attack surface. Application Load Balancer (ALB) — An internet-facing ALB sits in the public subnets and forwards HTTP traffic to the instance, providing a single stable entry point with health checking built in. AWS Systems Manager (SSM) — The instance is configured with the SSM Agent and the necessary IAM role, enabling secure shell access via Session Manager without opening inbound ports or managing SSH keys.
Key Benefits
Minimal operational overhead — The entire stack is defined as infrastructure-as-code, making it repeatable, auditable, and easy to tear down. Security by default — The instance is unreachable from the internet directly; all access is mediated through the ALB (HTTP) or SSM (administrative). No bastion host required — SSM Session Manager replaces traditional jump boxes, eliminating a common operational burden and security risk. Ready to customise — CloudFormation parameters allow you to adjust instance type, VPC CIDR ranges, and other settings at deploy time to suit your environment.
CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

Usage instructions
Prerequisites An active AWS account with sufficient IAM permissions to create VPC resources, EC2 instances, Auto Scaling Groups, and CloudFormation stacks. If you are new to CloudFormation, AWS offers a Getting Started with CloudFormation guide covering the basics before you proceed.
Step 1: Subscribe On the AWS Marketplace listing page, click Subscribe and accept the terms. Subscription is free to process and simply grants your AWS account access to the AMI used by this product.
Step 2: Launch the CloudFormation Stack Once subscribed, click Launch on the subscription page. This will open the AWS CloudFormation console with the template pre-loaded and ready to deploy.
Step 3: Configure the Stack Fill out the CloudFormation parameters. The defaults are suitable for most deployments, but you may wish to review and adjust:
VPC CIDR range: if the default conflicts with existing VPCs or peering requirements in your account. Instance types: to right-size compute for your expected workload.
All other parameters can be left at their defaults for a standard deployment.
Step 4: Deploy Acknowledge the IAM capability prompt at the bottom of the CloudFormation console (the stack creates IAM roles for SSM access) and click Create Stack. Deployment typically completes within 5-10 minutes.
Step 5: Access the Application Once the stack status shows CREATE_COMPLETE, open the Outputs tab in the CloudFormation console. The ALBAddress output contains the URL to access your running application as well as the SecretManager secret containing the initial admin user/pass
Administrative Access If you need shell access to any instance, use AWS Systems Manager Session Manager via the EC2 console or AWS CLI. No SSH keys or open inbound ports are required. Instances are not publicly accessible directly.
