Application Load Balancer Setup to Point to Your AWS EC2 Instance

Now that you have a website up and running on your AWS EC2 instance, it is time to setup a load balance which will take care of managing traffic, allowing our domain to function properly and to automate SSL without breaking a sweat. AWS Application Load Balancers are very powerful and have made a big difference to my hosting workflow. They are one of the reasons I like to host my site on AWS.

Another great video. Thabk you for your time
Do you have a link to the information you mentioned for hosting on a private subnet?
Also, a video showing stripe/paypal integration would be very interesting.

Which rules does the security group contain?

[neilaspin]

I just cannot get the load balancer to work.

What is source ip to communicate target instances??

[matthewsmithwarren]

This was helpful. If my EC2 app is already using Gunicorn and Nginx as a reverse proxy can I still use your method of wrapping with ELB? My understanding of how those port configurations might conflict is thin so I’d appreciate any context.

thank you for your video. I have just one question. When creating A record (09:32), I already have one A record for redirecting traffic to IP (Public address of EC2). I cannot create another A record.

[PaulAilincai]

Thanks a lot. Now, considering that public IPs are chargeable, would be interesting to see an update of this running with EC2s without public IPs, behind ALB.
