[POC-5] Create and Deploy Containerized Node.js Application on AWS Cloud9

[brunosantoslab]

Task Description:

Objective:
Create and deploy a containerized Node.js application using Docker on an AWS Cloud9 environment. This task serves as a proof of concept for containerizing applications and deploying them on AWS infrastructure.

Key Tasks:

1. Setup Environment:

   • Create and configure a new AWS Cloud9 environment.
     • Name: containers-cloud9
     • Instance type: t3.small
     • Network settings: Containers VPC
     • Update AWS CLI
     • Replace IAM instance profile
     • Disable managed credentials for Cloud9 environment
     • Expand Cloud9 Disk Space (size 40)

2. Build and Run Docker Container:

3. Test and Verify Deployment:

   • At the top of the AWS Cloud9 instance, choose Preview > Preview Running Application.
   • docker ps
   • docker logs webapp

4. Document the Process:

   • Update the README.md file with detailed instructions on how to set up, deploy, and test the Containerized Node.js Application.

Deliverables:

• Dockerfile for the Node.js application.
• Node.js application source code (server.js, package.json, input.txt, etc.).
• Instructions in README.md for setting up, deploying, and testing the containerized application.
• Verification of the running application in the Cloud9 preview.

Additional Notes:

• Ensure IAM Role Configuration: The IAM role used must have the appropriate permissions for deploying and managing resources.
• Documentation: The README.md should include detailed steps and observations on configuring IAM roles, expanding disk space, and deploying Docker containers.
