DESCRIPTION
AWS gives developers programmatic control of resources and the ability to grow as application needs dictate. However, managing an application can take more than simply starting EC2 instances. Software may need to be configured on the instances and changes to existing resources may be required. AWS now has an easier way to automate and control applications of any scale or complexity. In this session we will demonstrate OpsWorks, an integrated experience for managing the complete application lifecycle, including resource provisioning, configuration management, application deployment, software updates, monitoring, and access control. Attendees will leave this session with an understanding of how to control any aspect of an application’s configuration using OpsWorks Layers and Chef recipes, and automate common tasks to streamline operations.

Introducing AWS OpsWorks

Application Management Challenges
• Your app’s reliability and scalability are really important.
• The operational tasks needed to keep it running smoothly take time…
• As your app grows, routine operational tasks can become even more
time-consuming and error-prone.
• Don’t want to trade off control or flexibility for ease of use.
• Provision
• Deploy
• Configure
• Monitor
• Scale
• Secure
Once upon a time…

In today’s infrastructure, everything is code…
from the applications developers are writing, to your
configuration management tools, to provisioning
resources with AWS CloudFormation templates.
Introducing AWS OpsWorks
• Integrated application management solution for ops-minded
developers and IT admins
• Model, control, and automate applications of nearly any scale
and complexity
• AWS Management Console, SDKs, or CLI
• No additional cost

Easy to use, quickly get started and productive
PRODUCTIVE
Reduces errors with conventions and scripted configuration
FLEXIBLE
Simplifies deployments of any scale and complexity
POWERFUL
Reduces cost and time with automation
SECURE
Enables control with fine-grained permissions
Improve productivity
• Scalable infrastructure
• Flexible architecture
• Deploy often
• Staging environments
AWS OpsWorks gives us the tools we need to automate operations. We can scale Monster World, one of the largest Facebook games, to millions of users without ever needing more than two backend developers.

Improve control
• Versioned config
• Control anything you can script
• Lock down console access
• Change and deployment logs
Crashlytics uses AWS OpsWorks to support the rapid growth of our mobile crash reporting solution. With AWS OpsWorks, we can focus on the development and growth of our service and not spend developer cycles on infrastructure and operational tasks.

What we’re going to show in the demo…
A stack represents the cloud infrastructure and applications that you want to manage together.
A layer defines how to set up and configure a set of instances and related resources.
Then deploy your app to specific instances and customize the deployment with Chef recipes.
Decide how to scale: manually, with 24/7 instances, or automatically, with load-based or time-based instances.
What is Chef and how does OpsWorks use it
• Chef is an open-source framework
that automates software deployment
and configuration.
• Whenever a change happens on
your stack, or upon request, all
instances are notified and recipes
are run.

What’s next for AWS OpsWorks?
• More integration with AWS resources (e.g., Elastic Load Balancing)
• More layers
• Deeper VPC integration (beyond today’s support for the default VPC)
• And more! Give us your feedback in the OpsWorks forums.
Thank You!
