An Auto Scaling group is a collection of EC2 instances that share similar characteristics and can be scaled in or out automatically based on demand. An Auto Scaling group can be placed behind an Application Load Balancer, which is a type of Elastic Load Balancing load balancer that distributes incoming traffic across multiple targets in multiple Availability Zones. This solution will improve the resiliency of the web tier by providing high availability, scalability, and fault tolerance. An Amazon RDS Multi-AZ deployment is a configuration that automatically creates a primary database instance and synchronously replicates the data to a standby instance in a different Availability Zone. When a failure occurs, Amazon RDS automatically fails over to the standby instance without manual intervention. This solution will improve the resiliency of the database tier by providing data redundancy, backup support, and availability. This combination of steps will meet the requirements with minimal changes to the application during the migration.
