Week 7 hands on project

In chapter 12 we discussed a few popular ways to optimize cloud expenses, such as purchasing reserved instances in EC2 or efficiently managing data replication options. You also learned that cloud providers offer pricing calculators to help customers estimate and plan for the costs of a cloud deployment. In this project, you'll practice using AWS's Pricing Calculator to determine the monthly and yearly costs of a theoretical cloud infrastructure design. Complete the following steps: In this chapter we will put that into practice. Back in Chapter 6 we discussed a few popular ways to optimize cloud expenses, such as purchasing reserved instances in (Elastic Compute) EC2 or efficiently managing data replication options. You also learned that cloud providers offer pricing calculators to help customers estimate and plan for the costs of a cloud deployment. In this project, you'll practice using AWS's Pricing Calculator to determine the monthly and yearly costs of a theoretical cloud infrastructure design. Complete the following steps: 1. In your browser, go to the website https://calculator.aws/\#f as shown in Figure 1217. Read through the information on AWS's Pricing Calculator. What are the ways you can share your estimate once it's complete? Source: Amazon Web Services, Inc. AWS Pricing Calculator 2. Suppose you need to determine the monthly costs of a In your browser, go to the website hillesi//calculator aws/Hf as shown in Figure 12. 17. Read through the information on AWS's Pricing Calculator. What are the ways you can share your estimate once it's complete? Rigureakate Source: Amazon Web Services, Inc. AWS Pricing Calculator 2.. Suppose you need to determine the monthly costs of a basic web server funning in an EC2 instance. To begin designing this estimate, click Create estimate. 5. In the search box, enter EC2. When the Amazon EC2 Ele appears in the search results, click Configure in that tile as shown in Figure 12- 1 Hegiraraiss Source: Amazon Web Services, Inc. Configure each service individually 74. On the next page, you can choose configuration options for your EC2 instance that will host your web server. Give the instance a description, and then make the following selections: - Region: US East (Ohio) h Quick estimate c. Operating system: Linux a Instance type: Search for the lowest cost instance type that offers 4 vCPUs and 16GiB of memory. Which instance type did you choose? -Quantity: 1 EUtilization: 100 - Pricing model: On-Demand Instances i. Keep the default selections for the Amazon EBS section. 5. What is your monthly price for your web server and its block storage? How much of this cost covers the instance itself (and not the storage)? How much would this server cost you if you pay this rate for three years? b. Experiment with available pricing strategy options. What is the lowest cost you can find for this instance over a period of three years? What pricing strategy did you use to find this rate? V. Add this instance to your overall estimate. 8. Most businesses need a lot more resources than a single web server instance. Add the following services to your estimate using default settings except where indicated: - Amazon RDS for MySQL: db.m5.xarge reserved instance for three years paid upfront b. Elastic Load Balancing: Network Load Balancer processing 20GB per hour for TCP c. Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC): Data Transfer of 1TB per month both inbound from internet and Outbound to Internet 99. What is the total cost of your deployment now? 9y. What is the total cost of your deployment now? IV. Add a Business support plan, as shown in Figure 12-19. What is the total cost of your deployment now? IITGEienzarg Source: Amazon Web Services, Ine. Choose the Business support plan 1T. Create a shareable link for your estimate. Take a screenshot of the link in the Save estimate window. submit this visual with your answers to this project's questions. I2.: What is the link to your estimate? Leave your estimate intact (in other words, don't change or clear your estimate) so your instructor can check your configuration if needed. O 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved.
