Amazon OpenSearch Service (formerly Amazon ElasticSearch)

2023-06-12T06:48:45+00:00

Amazon OpenSearch Service Cheat Sheet Amazon OpenSearch lets you search, analyze, and visualize your data in real-time. This service manages the capacity, scaling, patching, and administration of your Elasticsearch clusters for you, while still giving you direct access to the Elasticsearch APIs. The service offers open-source Elasticsearch APIs, managed Kibana, and integrations with Logstash and other AWS Services. This combination is often coined as the ELK Stack. Amazon OpenSearch Concepts An Amazon OpenSearch domain is synonymous with an Elasticsearch cluster. Domains are clusters with the settings, instance types, instance counts, and storage resources that you specify. You can create multiple [...]

Amazon Mechanical Turk

2023-02-28T02:38:37+00:00

Amazon Mechanical Turk Cheat Sheet A forum where Requesters post work as Human Intelligence Tasks (HITs). Workers complete HITs in exchange for a reward. Essentially crowdsourcing. You write, test, and publish your HIT using the Mechanical Turk developer sandbox, Amazon Mechanical Turk APIs, and AWS SDKs. Benefits Optimize efficiency since MTurk is well-suited to take on simple and repetitive tasks in your workflows which need to be handled manually. Increase flexibility since MTurk lets you gain access to a global, on-demand, 24x7 workforce without the difficulty associated with dynamically scaling. Reduce cost by hiring and managing a temporary workforce. MTurk [...]

Latency Routing vs Geoproximity Routing vs Geolocation Routing

2023-04-10T03:27:57+00:00

  Latency Routing Geoproximity Routing Geolocation Routing Definition Lets Route 53 serve user requests from the AWS Region that provides the lowest latency. It does not, however, guarantee that users in the same geographic region will be served from the same location. Latency-based routing is based on latency measurements performed over a period of time, and the measurements reflect changes in network connectivity and routing. Lets Amazon Route 53 route traffic to your resources based on the geographic location of your users and your resources.  You can also optionally choose to route more traffic or less to a given resource [...]

Backup and Restore vs Pilot Light vs Warm Standby vs Multi-site

2023-04-10T06:17:02+00:00

You should select the most appropriate DR plan to meet your company RTO and RPO. Consider also your budget and which system elements are most critical for your business. Backup and Restore Pilot Light This DR plan provides the slowest system restoration after a DR event. You take frequent snapshots of your data such as those in Amazon EBS Volumes and Amazon RDS databases, and you store them in a durable and secure storage location such as Amazon S3. There are many ways for you to move data in and out of S3 Transfer over the network via S3 Transfer [...]

EC2 Instance Health Check vs ELB Health Check vs Auto Scaling and Custom Health Check

2024-02-13T06:24:11+00:00

EC2 instance health check Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) health check Auto Scaling and Custom health checks Amazon EC2 performs automated checks on every running EC2 instance to identify hardware and software issues. Status checks are performed every minute and each returns a pass or a fail status.  If all checks pass, the overall status of the instance is OK.  If one or more checks fail, the overall status is impaired. Status checks are built into EC2, so they cannot be disabled or deleted. You can create or delete alarms that are triggered based on the result of the status checks. [...]

SNI Custom SSL vs Dedicated IP Custom SSL

2023-04-12T00:51:16+00:00

Server Name Indication (SNI) Custom SSL Dedicated IP Custom SSL Relies on the SNI extension of the TLS protocol, which allows multiple domains to serve SSL traffic over the same IP address. Offers the same level of security when using Dedicated IP Custom SSL. If you configure CloudFront to serve HTTPS requests using SNI, CloudFront associates your alternate domain name with an IP address for each edge location. The IP address to your domain name is determined during the SSL/TLS handshake negotiation, and isn't dedicated to your distribution. Some older browsers do not support SNI and will not be able [...]

Redis Append-Only Files vs Redis Replication

2023-04-10T05:21:12+00:00

Redis Append-Only Files (AOF) Redis Replication You can enable the Redis append-only file feature (AOF) for data durability. It is similar to creating manual backups. When enabled, the node writes all of the commands that change cache data to an append-only file.  When a node is rebooted and the cache engine starts, Redis goes through an AOF to replay the actions that were performed before the crash; the result is a warm Redis cache with all of the data intact. To enable AOF for a cluster running Redis, you must create a parameter group with the appendonly parameter set to [...]

Elastic Container Service (ECS) vs Lambda

2023-04-08T05:18:48+00:00

Amazon EC2 Container Service (ECS) AWS Lambda Amazon ECS is a highly scalable, high performance container management service that supports Docker containers and allows you to easily run applications on a managed cluster of Amazon EC2 instances. ECS eliminates the need for you to install, operate, and scale your own cluster management infrastructure. With ECS, deploying containerized applications is easily accomplished. This service fits well in running batch jobs or in a microservice architecture. You have a central repository where you can upload your Docker Images from ECS container for safekeeping called Amazon ECR. Applications in ECS can be written [...]

Service Control Policies (SCP) vs IAM Policies

2023-04-12T00:38:41+00:00

Service Control Policies (SCP) IAM Policies SCPs are mainly used along with AWS Organizations organizational units (OUs). SCPs do not replace IAM Policies such that they do not provide actual permissions. To perform an action, you would still need to grant appropriate IAM Policy permissions. Even if a Principal is allowed to perform a certain action (granted through IAM Policies), an attached SCP will override that capability if it enforces a Deny on that action. SCP takes precedence over IAM Policies. SCPs can be applied to the root of an organization or to individual accounts in an OU. When you [...]
