Terraform 12 - Deploy ELK stack, Configure Nginx reverse proxy & Route 53 on AWS

Key points:
1. Deploy ELK stack via Terraform
2. Configure DNS for Kibana on Route53 and automate it via Terraform
3. Configure Nginx reverse proxy
Notes:
Nginx configuration example:
server {
listen 80;
server_name elk.zztalks.xyz;
location / {
proxy_pass localhost:5601;
}
}
Steps to install Nginx, configure the reverse proxy and enable the configuration:
sudo apt-get install nginx -y
sleep 10
sudo mv /tmp/zztalks.xyz /etc/nginx/sites-available/zztalks.xyz
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/zztalks.xyz /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
sudo service nginx restart

great video

Did you have the repo for US?

[@zztalk]

I added the key configuration in the description. I highly recommended to write the code with me, which I think it’s the best way to learn. Feel free to comment if you run into any issue.
