Automated RDS Snapshot Management for Improved Data Security

2024-07-17T06:42:57+00:00

The Automated Daily RDS Export ensures that daily snapshots of Amazon RDS instances are created and made shareable. While RDS takes daily snapshots automatically, these are not shareable by default. To address this, we copy the snapshots and share the copies with a designated backup account. This process uses AWS Lambda Functions and Amazon EventBridge to automate the task. EventBridge triggers the Lambda function daily, which handles copying and sharing the snapshots. This automation ensures that shareable snapshots are created every day without manual intervention, enhancing the reliability and accessibility of database backups. The Automated Daily RDS Export has several [...]

Solving HTTP 500 Errors by Increasing File Descriptor Limits

2024-07-08T08:56:55+00:00

When it comes to web hosting and server management, facing HTTP 500 errors can be a challenging obstacle. Such errors frequently arise from file descriptor limits, which restrict the server's capacity to manage incoming requests efficiently. However, by understanding how to expand these limits, you can reduce the occurrence of HTTP 500 errors and guarantee more seamless operations for your web applications.  Raising file descriptor limits helps fix HTTP 500 errors by enabling servers to manage more connections at once. This enhances server reliability and efficiency, particularly during high traffic, leading to fewer errors and quicker responses. Additionally, it reduces [...]

Exploring C++ with AWS Lambda Custom Runtime

2024-06-24T12:24:15+00:00

AWS Lambda is a great service for running code without worrying about server management. While it traditionally supports languages like Python, Node.js, and Java, AWS now allows you to run code in any language using custom runtimes. In this blog post, I'll walk you through setting up a C++ Lambda function that calculates the Fibonacci series. We'll leverage the performance and efficiency of C++ to build a function that runs smoothly and showcases the versatility of AWS Lambda's custom runtime. The aim of this blog is to guide you through creating and deploying a C++ Lambda function using AWS custom [...]

Daily AMI Export: Enhancing Backup and Recovery

2024-06-21T00:56:12+00:00

Daily automation of Amazon Machine Image (AMI) export is vital for keeping IT systems strong and dependable. This process ensures that the latest version of your system's setup is always saved. If something goes wrong, like a system crash, having these up-to-date backups means you can quickly get things back up and running. Additionally, it makes it easier to grow or move your systems because you have readily available copies of machine images. By doing this every day, businesses can reduce the risk of losing data, work more efficiently, and keep everything running smoothly. Automating daily exports of Amazon Machine [...]
