A comprehensive guide to walk through the process of setting up highly available and secure SFTP servers on AWS EC2 instances, fortified with advanced configurations and redundancy measures. You will learn:
- Custom Instance Configurations: EC2 instances with custom configurations enhanced security by blocking default port 22 access and implementing key-based authentication.
- Identical Server Setup: Leveraging the power of redundancy, deployed two identical servers with mirrored configurations. This redundancy ensures seamless operation and fault tolerance, minimizing the risk of downtime and data loss.
- Route53 Weighted Policy: By harnessing the capabilities of AWS Route53, implement weighted routing policies to intelligently distribute incoming traffic between our SFTP instances. This dynamic routing mechanism optimizes performance and ensures efficient resource utilization across both servers.
- Effortless Maintenance: With the flexibility offered by Route53 weighted policies, maintenance tasks become a breeze. By selectively routing traffic to one instance at a time, updates and maintenance operations are performed without impacting service availability. This streamlined approach to maintenance guarantees zero downtime and uninterrupted service for our users.
