Introduction # Today we are going to do a hands-on on how to kill a dangling EIP or in other words, deallocate an unassigned Elastic IP. But before that, let us know…
What is an Elastic IP and why do we need it? # Elastic IPs are simply IP addresses provided by Amazon AWS. These are usually attached to internet gateways such as load balancers, or even EC2 instances. I have been using it with EC2 instances directly for my testing use case.
Introduction # This is second and final post in the series of creating a S3 thumbnail system with Lambda.
You must already be aware of the prerequisites from the last section. To follow this post, familarity with Python would benifit.
This is second part of the 2 section tutorial:
Test the Trigger Make the Thumbnail (you are here) We are doing Make the Thumbnail.
Introduction # In this post, we are going to see how we can use existing AWS infrastructure to create thumbnail for uploaded images. In this venture, we are going to use S3 trigger to execure Lambda function to do whatever we want. But in this case, we’ll create thumbnail so that we can save on some bandwidth when only a smaller version of image is required on the frontend.
