Amazon Web Services Launches OpsWorks
Playing on the DevOps field, Amazon Web Services has launched OpsWorks, a DevOps solution for managing applications of any scale or complexity on the AWS cloud. A spiced-up version of managing technology infrastructure and applications, OpsWorks has been designed to manage, configure and provision an applications stack.
“AWS OpsWorks uses automation to simplify operations. You specify how to deploy, scale, and maintain your applications and AWS OpsWorks performs the tasks for you. AWS OpsWorks can scale your applications using automatic load-based or time-based scaling, and maintain the health of your applications by detecting failed instances and replacing them. With AWS OpsWorks, you can deploy your applications to 1,000s of Amazon EC2 instances with the same effort as a single instance”, AWS mentioned on its website.
OpsWorks eliminates the complexity and reduces time consumption of traditional application management by providing an end-to-end, flexible, and automated solution for more operational control over applications. This is possible with the functionality features of OpsWorks that include:
- Creating a Stack
- Defining the layers of stack
- Assigning instances to layers
- Defining and deploying apps
AWS also said that OpsWorks will support multiple application architectures as well as the Chef framework, automate operating via event-driven configuration and deployment as well as tasks such as patching and operational control over security.
As of now, OpsWorks is currently in beta. AWS has a walkthrough on its blog that gives a deep understanding of OpsWorks. There are no additional charges, no minimum fees and no upfront commitments for OpsWorks. Instead, customers pay for the resources to store and run applications.
