Example AWS Cloud Development Kit app that deploys the greeter microservice stack

greeter-cdk

A simple AWS Cloud Development Kit app example that shows how to deploy a microservice stack using the following example microservice containers:

• nathanpeck/greeter - Constructs a random greeting phrase from a greeting and a name.
• nathanpeck/greeting - Returns a random greeting
• nathanpeck/name - Returns a random name

The microservices are connected like this:

• A public facing load balancer distributes traffic from the general public to the front facing greeter service.
• The greeter services uses a private, internal application load balancer to fetch from the greeting and name services, which are bound to the paths /greeting and /name on the ALB.
