Lab Exercise
Create a new S3 bucket in the Singapore region to store log files. E.g.
2012-jiyosub-logs (use your name)
Create a new S3 bucket in Singapore to store public content, and

30. Let’s simplify a bit:
we consider only a few of them
Stockholm
San Jose
Hong
Kong
Sao
Paulo
Your web servers
in Singapore
31. Content Delivery Network:
How it works
Stockholm
San Jose
Hong
Kong
Sao
Paulo
Dynamic pages (PHP, Java) (from web
Your web servers
servers)
in Singapore
Static content or streaming (with CloudFront)
32. Content Delivery Network:
How it works in details
1) A person opens a website, e.g.
http://www.amazon.com
2) The browser performs a DNS query
3) DNS responds: go to 72.21.214.128
4) A web server responds with a web page
5) Some objects inside the page require further queries
6) Some are hosted on CloudFront “distributions”
7) The browser will be directed to the closest location
8) Content will be served quickly and reliably
32
The user doesn’t need to know anything about CDNs

34. Amazon CloudFront
Use cases
Accelerated web content delivery
Off-load traffic from web servers
Big spikes in traffic
Event streaming
Marketing campaigns
34
35. Amazon CloudFront
Demo
Create a static distribution
Test the content
35
36. Amazon CloudFront
Lab Exercise
Use your S3 bucket 2012-jiyosub-public to create a
distribution using it as the origin.
Delivery method is Downloading.
Logging is into the S3 bucket: 2012-jiyosub-public
Place the logs under the directory my-cf-logs
Select one of your pictures, then open it with a browser.
Test it with your Cloud Buddy. (it might take 10-15 mins)
Once finished, destroy the CloudFront distribution.

Lab Exercise
Create a new Security Group, “linux-web”
Enable SSH, HTTP, HTTPS
Create a new Keypair, and download it
Launch a t1.micro or t1.small using a Linux AMI
Enable CloudWatch
Associate it with Keypair and Security Group
Log in, install a web server, create a web page
Activate the web server, test it on a browser
Assign an Elastic IP to the Instance
Stop it. Create an AMI from the Instance.
Boot a second Instance from that AMI. Test it.

Enable one Read Replica
Optional: connect to the DB Instance
54
55. Amazon RDS
Lab Exercise
From the AWS Management Console, under Amazon
RDS, create a new DB Instance (MySQL)
Enable Multi-AZ Deployment
Once the DB Instance is running, enable Read Replica
Perform a manual DB Snapshot
Optional: connect to the DB Instance, create a new
Database, a new Table, enter some values
55
57. IMPORTANT!
To avoid unwanted running costs:
+ Delete your S3 objects
+ Destroy your CloudFront distributions
+ Stop or Shut Down your EC2 and RDS instances
The customer is responsible for the resources he’s using.
AWS declines any responsibility if the customer forgets
to shut down resources.
