AWS CloudFormation Deletion Policy

2023-06-03T04:57:38+00:00

Deleting a stack on CloudFormation also removes all the provisioned resources in it. In some cases, you want some resources to be retained even after deleting its stack. The good thing is that you can do this by defining its DeletionPolicy.  This is pretty straightforward - you just need to define DeletionPolicy with Retain value and for the resources that support snapshot, (like RDS databases) you can set Snapshot as its value. With DeletionPolicy: Snapshot, a snapshot is created before a resource is deleted. This allows you to have a backup of the resource that's been deleted from the stack.  [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
