Hello Hashnode Community! πŸ‘‹ Today, I'm thrilled to share practical insights from my recent deep dive into Amazon S3 and the AWS CLI as part of the #90DaysofDevOps Challenge. Let's jump right into the key steps and discoveries!

Task-01: Seamless EC2 and S3 Integration

Setting Up EC2 and S3

  1. EC2 Instance Launch:

    • Initiated an EC2 instance via the AWS Management Console.

    • Ensured secure access through SSH.

  2. S3 Bucket Creation and File Upload:

    • Crafted an S3 bucket, ensuring proper naming conventions.

    • Directly uploaded a file using the AWS Management Console.

  3. AWS CLI in Action:

    • Leveraged the AWS CLI to access the S3 file from the EC2 instance programmatically.

    • Ran aws s3 cp s3://your-bucket-name/your-file.txt . for seamless download.

Task-02: Snapshot, EC2 Redux, and Advanced S3 Interaction

Snapshot Chronicles and Advanced S3 Operations

  1. Creating EC2 Snapshot:

    • Captured a snapshot of the EC2 instance for future replication.
  2. New EC2 from Snapshot:

    • Launched a new EC2 instance using the created snapshot.
  3. AWS CLI for S3 Operations:

    • Demonstrated AWS CLI commands for downloading S3 files.

    • Validated file consistency across different EC2 instances.
