Introduction

Hemanth of Alliance Department here. In this blog, i tried linking EC2 instances by creating an ALB.

EC2

It is a service offered by Amazon Web Services for cloud computing (AWS). By offering scalable cloud computing power through EC2, users can rent virtual computers on which to execute their own apps. When managing and scaling applications in the cloud, EC2 offers a flexible, affordable, and simple solution.

ALB

ALB stands for Amazon Load Balancer, a load-balancing service offered by Amazon Web Services (AWS). Incoming application traffic is automatically split out over numerous targets, including EC2 instances, containers, and IP addresses in one or more Availability Zones. ALB boosts the capacity of your application to manage incoming traffic while also assisting in ensuring high availability and fault tolerance for your applications.
