Deploy the Infrastructure and Application

1. Go to https://dashboard.eventengine.run/login

2. Enter the 16 character hashcode you were provided and click “Proceed”

3. Sign-in using either an Amazon.com retail account or a One-Time Password (OTP) that will be emailed to you.

4. [optional] assign a name to your account (this is referred to as “Team name”)

   • click “Set Team Name”
   • Enter a name and click “Set Team Name”

5. Click “AWS Console”

6. Get and store your AWS credentials

   • IMPORTANT Copy the provided credentials and save them. You wil need these to complete the workshop

   • Copy the whole code block corresponding to the system you are using.

7. Access the AWS console

   • Click “Open AWS Console”.
   • The AWS Console will open and you can continue the lab.

• Sign in to the AWS Management Console as an IAM user who has PowerUserAccess or AdministratorAccess permissions, to ensure successful execution of this lab.

This step will create the VPC and all components using the example CloudFormation template.

1. Download the latest version of the CloudFormation template here: vpc-alb-app-db.yaml
2. Sign in to the AWS Management Console, select your preferred region, and open the CloudFormation console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/.
3. Click Create Stack, then With new resources (standard).

4. Click Upload a template file and then click Choose file.

5. Choose the CloudFormation template you downloaded in step 1, return to the CloudFormation console page and click Next.
6. Enter the following details:
   • Stack name: The name of this stack. For this lab, use WebApp1-VPC and match the case.
   • Parameters: Parameters may be left as defaults, you can find out more in the description for each.

7. At the bottom of the page click Next.
8. In this lab, we use tags, which are key-value pairs, that can help you identify your stacks. Enter Owner in the left column which is the key, and your email address in the right column which is the value. We will not use additional permissions or advanced options so click Next. For more information, see Setting AWS CloudFormation Stack Options.
9. Review the information for the stack. When you’re satisfied with the configuration, at the bottom of the page check I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might create IAM resources with custom names then click Create stack.

10. After a few minutes the final stack status should change from CREATE_IN_PROGRESS to CREATE_COMPLETE. You can click the refresh button to check on the current status. You have now created the VPC stack (well actually CloudFormation did it for you).

11. When the stack status is CREATE_COMPLETE, you can continue to the next step

1. Download the latest version of the CloudFormation template here: staticwebapp.yaml

2. Choose the same AWS region as you did for the VPC (if you used our recommendation, this is us-east-2 (Ohio))

3. Go to the AWS CloudFormation console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation and click Create Stack > With new resources

4. Leave Prepare template setting as-is

   • For Template source select Upload a template file
   • Click Choose file and supply the CloudFormation template you downloaded: staticwebapp.yaml

5. Click Next

6. For Stack name use WebApp1-Static

7. Parameters

   • Look over the Parameters and their default values.

   • Click Next

8. For Configure stack options we recommend configuring tags, which are key-value pairs, that can help you identify your stacks and the resources they create. For example, enter Owner in the left column which is the key, and your email address in the right column which is the value. We will not use additional permissions or advanced options so click Next. For more information, see Setting AWS CloudFormation Stack Options.

9. For Review

   • Review the contents of the page
   • At the bottom of the page, select I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might create IAM resources with custom names
   • Click Create stack

10. This will take you to the CloudFormation stack status page, showing the stack creation in progress.

    • Click on the Events tab
    • Scroll through the listing. It shows the activities performed by CloudFormation (newest events at top), such as starting to create a resource and then completing the resource creation.
    • Any errors encountered during the creation of the stack will be listed in this tab.

11. When it shows status CREATE_COMPLETE, then you are finished with this step.
