This section creates a application bundle for AWS Elastic Beanstalk to run a Multi-Container Docker environment with a ready-to-use Orca Web server.

Using Elastic Beanstalk, the SSL certificates are managed via AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) and installed on a front-facing Elastic Load Balancer (ELB). The distributed certificate is a wildcard, whose renewal is automatically handled by ACM.

Note

• Pro: Easiest setup possible.
• Con: Uses an ELB (per environment), which is somewhat pricy and downright overkill, considering our current needs.

Usage

• Create an Elastic Beanstalk environment configured as follows:
  1. Use an Elastic Load Balancer and listen for both HTTP and HTTPS
  2. Select Multi-Container Docker environment
  3. Set up the required environment variables
• Create a zip archive from the Dockerrun.aws.json and the nginx-config directory.
• Upload to the desired Elastic Beanstalk environment.
