AWS OpsWorks supports Elastic Load Balancing
We are excited to announce developers can now add Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) to their OpsWorks application stacks and get all the built-in capabilities ELB is known for, including:
- Elastic Load Balancing automatically scales its request handling capacity in response to incoming application traffic.
- SSL certificates are stored using IAM credentials, allowing you to control who can see your private keys.
- Elastic Load Balancing spans multiple AZs for reliability, but provides a single DNS name for simplicity.
- Elastic Load Balancing metrics such as request count and request latency are reported by Amazon CloudWatch.
- By default, Elastic Load Balancing supports SSL termination at the Load Balancer, including offloading SSL decryption from application instances, centralized management of SSL certificates, and encryption to back-end instances with optional public key authentication.
A few clicks in the AWS Management Console are all it takes to get your first application running on AWS OpsWorks. You can learn more by reading the OpsWorks documentation.
