Orhestration service that combines multiple aws services for deploying a web app. There’s always an ec2 instance (1 or load balanced to more) and s3 storage for various environment versions. What’s optional is Cloudwatch, rds, elastic load balancers etc.
In this post I’ll explain a setup for one of my NextJS websites on elasticbeanstalk. You probably already know about what are NextJS, Nginx and elasticbeanstalk, so I’ll skip the introductory definitions. I have a hybrid NextJS website. Some content is Hint: If you just have a static nextjs app, Read more…
By default every elastic beanstalk application has an associated S3 bucket for storing application versions, rotated logs (enable it) and temporary configuration. Multiple elastic beanstalks in a same region share the same S3 bucket. More on it in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/AWSHowTo.S3.html Push rotated logs to S3 To persist logs, you can configure Read more…

Cookie-less domain Asset domain remains cookie-less, e.g. cookie based authentication only bloats domain.com requests === Read more…
Probably ssh connection is not configured, to enable it go to elastic beanstalk instance: Step 1: Go to EC2 dashboard https://eu-central-1.console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/v2/home.Identify which ec2 instance you want to connect to. Name of the instance should correspond to the name of the environment. E.g. myelasticbeanstalk-env. Step 2: Select the instance, click on Read more…
This solution uses SSH Tunnel. Tunnel will port forward your connection from ec2 instance to rds. Not sure if any ec2 instance will work, I checked only for ElasticBeanstalk stack with attached rds instance. I’ll explain how to setup connection on PgAdmin4 and IntelliJ. Before Anything… Try connecting to your Read more…
