Deployment

To deploy the network stack run

$  aws cloudformation create-stack --stack-name network --template-body file://udagram-network.yml --parameters file://udagram-parameters.json --region=us-east-1

That will creat the following resources:

• VPC
• Internet Gateway
• Public subnets
• Private subnets
• Route tables
• Routes
• Nat Gateways

To deploy the servers stack

$  aws cloudformation create-stack --stack-name servers --template-body file://udagram-servers.yml --parameters file://servers-parameters.json --region=us-east-1 --capabilities "CAPABILITY_IAM" "CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM"

That will creat the following resources:

• IAM Role for S3 and its policy
• Load balancer
• Targer group
• Security groups
• Auto scaling group
• Launch configration
