AWS CloudFormation Mini Stack

This repository contains a simple AWS CloudFormation stack that creates an Ubuntu20.04 EC2 instance with an associated security group and a Tomcat service fully configured serving a test app. It also includes two scripts to deploy and delete the stack using the AWS CLI.

Table of Contents

Files

  • tomcat.yml: This is the CloudFormation template that defines the resources for the stack. It creates an EC2 instance and a security group. It also installs and configures Tomcat, along with its dependencies such as Java. In addition, it compiles a small test application and deploys it on Tomcat for execution.

  • deployStack.sh: This script deploys the CloudFormation stack using the AWS CLI. It assumes that the AWS CLI is installed and configured, and that the stack name is 'Tomcat10'.

  • deleteStack.sh: This script deletes the CloudFormation stack using the AWS CLI. It also assumes that the AWS CLI is installed and configured, and that the stack name is 'Tomcat10'.

  • app: This is the test application that is compiled and deployed on Tomcat as part of the CloudFormation stack creation. Its a simple 'hello world'.

Usage

  1. Make sure you have the AWS CLI installed and configured with a profile named 'default'.

  2. To deploy the stack, run the deployStack.sh script:

    bash deployStack.sh

  3. To delete the stack, run the deleteStack.sh script:

    bash deleteStack.sh

Please note that the stack name 'Tomcat10' is hardcoded in the scripts. If you want to use a different stack name, you will need to modify the scripts accordingly.

Requirements

  • AWS CLI
  • AWS account with permissions to create EC2 instances and security groups
  • Bash shell to run the scripts

Disclaimer

Please use this stack at your own risk. Always check the resources that are being created and ensure that they comply with your security and cost requirements.
