Cloud Assignment

Task 1: AWS

1. Create an S3 Bucket

• Create an Amazon S3 bucket with a unique name.
• Configure the bucket to be publicly accessible for static website hosting.
• Document the steps taken to create the S3 bucket.

2. Set Up an EC2 Instance

• Launch an Amazon EC2 instance using Amazon Linux.
• SSH into the instance and install a web server of your choice (e.g., Apache or Nginx).
• Create a simple HTML page and host it on the web server.
• Provide the public IP address of your EC2 instance or private link endpoint.

3. Configure Security Group

• Modify the security group of your EC2 instance to allow HTTP traffic.
• Restrict access to your public IP only.

4. AWS Lambda Function

• Write an AWS Lambda function using Python that:
  • Triggers on an S3 bucket event (e.g., object creation).
  • Logs the event details to CloudWatch Logs.

Task 2: Scripting

5. Python Script

• Write a Python script that interacts with the AWS SDK (boto3) from the EC2 instance:
  • List all S3 buckets in your AWS account.
  • Display the total number of objects in a specified S3 bucket.
• Develop a Python script to analyze a given CSV file (format: name, age, grade) and print the names of students with an average grade above a specified threshold.

6. AWS SDK Documentation Review

• Include links to the specific documentation pages consulted for Task 2.

Task 3: CI/CD Basics

7. Setup a GitHub Repository

• Create a GitHub repository to host:
  • The web server script from Task 2.5 (either Bash or Python).
  • The Terraform script from Task 4.9.
• Share the link to your GitHub repository.

8. Implement a Simple CI/CD Pipeline

• Use GitHub Actions or any CI/CD tool of your choice to set up a pipeline for the GitHub repository.

Task 4: Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with Terraform

9. Terraform Script

• Write a Terraform script to:
  • Automate the creation of the EC2 instance and associated resources.
  • Create an Amazon S3 bucket for storing static website content.
  • Parameterize the script for variables like instance type, key pair, bucket name, etc.

10. AWS Lambda Function

• Integrate the Lambda function from Task 1.4 into the Terraform script from Task 9 for automatic deployment.

11. Cost Estimation

• Provide the annual AWS cost of the setup completed in Task 1.
