I am using AWS Elasticsearch service (ES version 5.3). What are the web frontend plugin that can be used with AWS-ES?
The AWS ES supported plugins doesn't seem to support any frontend view.
Also, doesn't seem like Elasticsearch-head plugin can't be installed inside the AWS-ES service. Any suggestion?
Use Kibana. Launch a local instance of it or running in ec2.
Or try cloud.elastic.co which has everything OOTB.
Disclaimer: I'm working at elastic.

We're trying to migrate our J2EE web application to Amazon Lambda . The web application is currently deployed on a Wildfly 11 server. After reading Amazon's docs -- https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/lambda-java-how-to-create-deployment-package.html , I don't see anything about support for the WAR package. Their ZIP package looks somewhat similar, but has structural differences.
Is there a way to deploy my web application (WAR file) to lambda, and if not, is there a simple way to convert it to the structure AWS Lambda is expecting?
I'm new with AWS mobile hub and today I just notice there is a new AWS Amplify/CL, now I'm super confused with these two libs.
My understanding was AWS mobile cli is a tool that create aws backend service, and amplify js just client library that hook up with the aws backend.
But now I see this AWS Amplify/CLI, it also can create aws service and also creates the aws-exports.js file, and now AWS Amplify docs has changed, it no longer tell you how would it works with mobile hub, instead use Amplify/CLI to create services.
Dose it mean I should use AWS Amplify/CLI instead?
Use the Amplify CLI going forward, it's more flexible architecture that allows a comprehensive feature set. See the information in this post:
Existing Mobile Hub projects continue to work without requiring any app changes. If you’re using the AWS Mobile CLI for existing projects, you can also continue to use that older CLI. However, going forward, new features will be added to the AWS Amplify CLI toolchain which does not use Mobile Hub.
If you’re building a new mobile or web app, or adding cloud capabilities to brownfield apps, use the new AWS Amplify CLI. The new Amplify CLI will allow you to take advantage of all the new features outlined in this blog, as well as the rich CloudFormation functionality to unlock more workflows and future tooling.
Section: Existing tooling, https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/announcing-the-aws-amplify-cli-toolchain/
For current Mobile Hub users, we just released a Mobile Hub to Amplify CLI migrator that you can access here: https://github.com/awslabs/amplify-mobilehub-migrator. This will help you import your Mobile Hub resources into an Amplify project, give you an exports file, and allow you to leverage Amplify CLI features such as GraphQL APIs, Codegen, and the GraphQL Transform.
Update - AWS Mobile Hub will be replaced by AWS Amplify on October 30, 2021. Existing users should plan a migration strategy. For apps already deployed with Mobile Hub, resources created by Mobile Hub will continue to function.
"If you don't migrate your project to Amplify, your app will continue to function, and all your related cloud resources will continue to be available. However, you won't be able to access the Mobile Hub project container after October 15, 2021." - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/aws-mobile/latest/developerguide/what-is-aws-mobile.html#migrate-to-amplify
I like the friendly interface that AWS Mobile Hub provides to disparate Amazon services, but I'd like to use it to create a web application, rather than a native iOS or Android app.
It's not clear to me how to do so, since there's no option for javascript sample code or any mention of web applications:
Am I missing something? Is there documentation for this use-case elsewhere?
All of the resources that are configured by various features in Mobile Hub (e.g., NoSQL Database, Cloud Logic APIs) are usable directly from a web app in the browser. For example, you can turn on the App Content Delivery feature, enable web hosting on your Amazon S3 bucket, download/copy the AWS JavaScript SDK into your Amazon S3 bucket, and start writing your web app. The JavaScript SDK will allow you to interact with your Mobile Hub resources (found on the "Resources" page in the left Nav menu in Mobile Hub's console).
However, we do realize these steps are tedious and we have had similar feedback from other customers. So, we are actively working to make these steps easier.
In the meantime, you can get the AWS JavaScript SDK here:
https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-browser/
And, you may find some of our github samples are a good starting point, like this one:
https://github.com/awslabs/lambda-refarch-webapp
For those looking to build web apps, AWS has a JavaScript library called AWS Amplify that makes building cloud web apps easy: https://aws.github.io/aws-amplify/
I am a new developer to the AWS cloud. I am writing an Android App that interfaces with the SimpleDB. I have found many references and have successfully interfaced my app with the SimpleDB using the AWS SDK and using the anonymous TVM - works great.
The problem is I will need a web site to interface to the same data via AWS SimpleDB. The web site also needs to interface with Google Maps. For the first phase, the site can be completely private, but down the road I would want to be able to make the site available to the public, utilizing one set of security Credentials.
After reading some of the documentation - I am extremely confused about how to do this. Do I need to host the site on AWS? Which API do I use that could interface with my web site code-mostly JQUERY and JavaScript? I see there is a PHP API? (Not too familiar with PHP) I saw some examples using REST calls via AJAX. If anyone has any feedback or simple examples, or explanations that would be great.
Yes, you should host your web site on an EC2 instance (although you can host it on any other server or hosting service).
Your site should also integrate with AWS services, like SimpleDB or DynamoDB.
It will be easier for you to start with Node.js that will run your JQuery and other JavaScript code natively. Check out the new SDK for Node.js.
If you have a static site of mostly js and HTML, you can use amazon s3 to host your site.
I would like to deploy wso2 products in aws using beanstalk.
Theoretically it should be possible by following the instructions for deploying in webapp mode.
http://wso2.org/project/carbon/3.2.2/docs/admin_guide.html#webappmode
Has anyone managed to achieve this?
What steps were required?
Following the document [1] you shared should work.
However, unless you really have a requirement, it is not that encouraged to run WSO2 Products in web app mode. This is because the Web app container will limit the WSO2 products, where WSO2 Products can function independently in stand-alone mode. Running WSO2 stand-alone over the EC2 might be more appropriate.
