Subject : IT & Computer Science
Overview
Master AWS Elastic Load Balancing to distribute traffic, enable high availability, and handle server failure scenarios.
Course Description

Explore resilient systems with AWS Elastic Load Balancing

Build resilient, high-traffic applications by configuring a Network Load Balancer across multiple Availability Zones. Evaluate traffic distribution, Cross-Zone load balancing, and fault tolerance by simulating server failures and observing automatic traffic recovery.

Discover load balancer performance through real-world failure and recovery

Configure and test a Network Load Balancer to assess routing behaviour, optimise traffic distribution, and maintain application availability during server failures.

Career Path
  • Test connectivity to two web servers that reside in two different Availability Zones
  • Create a Network Load Balancer and use the two web servers as Elastic Load Balancer targets
  • Test the default functionality of your load balancer
  • Enabled Cross-Zone load balancing and test how your load balancer behaves
  • Test the behaviour of your load balancer during a failure of one of your web servers
  • Test the behaviour of your load balancer after your web server has recovered from the failure
