Description

Show how to deploy a sample PHP application on AWS Elastic Beanstalk using AutoScaling, LoadBalancer, and a pre-existing ElastiCache (memcached) cluster for PHP session storage. The required EC2 instances will be created within a pre-existing VPC and subnets.

Requirements

a) You need to install the Elastic Beanstalk Command Line Interface (EB CLI) - See the instructions.

b) Have a previously created VPC and its subnets.

c) Have a previously created ElastiCache cluster.

NOTE: You may automate b and c using Elastic Beanstalk Environment Resources. For the purposes of this demo, we assume you already have a VPC and a ElastiCache cluster.

Steps to deploy

1. Clone

   git clone https://github.com/jweyrich/aws-demo-php-eb-elasticache.git
   cd aws-demo-php-eb-elasticache
   

2. Configure required details

a) Edit VPC/EC2 details on .ebextensions\01_instance.config.

b) Edit the ElastiCache host on .ebextensions\04_memcached.config.

c) Add and commit your changes:

```
git commit -a -m 'My changes.'
```

3. Deploy

   eb deploy
