Lab 07: Deploy a Scalable, Highly Available Web App with Load Balancing (AWS)

In this lab, we deploy a scalable and highly available web application in AWS by launching multiple EC2 instances behind a Load Balancer, then test how traffic is distributed across them. 🔹 What you'll learn: Launching multiple EC2 instances for high availability Configuring a Load Balancer (Layer 4 / Layer 7) Registering instances as targets behind the load balancer Testing traffic distribution across instances in real time Understanding why load balancing improves scalability and uptime This is Lab 07 in the Cloud Networking Lab Series, covering practical networking and architecture concepts across AWS, Azure, and GCP. 📌 Previous labs: Lab 01 – Design a Virtual Network with Public & Private Subnets Lab 02 – Routing & NAT for Controlled Internet Access Lab 03 – Private DNS in AWS: Custom Hostname to EC2 Private IP Lab 04 – Network-Level Security Controls with AWS Security Groups ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction (add your own once edited) #AWS #LoadBalancer #CloudComputing #HighAvailability #EC2 #Scalability #CloudNetworking #AWSTutorial
