Introduction
This repository provides utilities which are used at MiQ. MiQ has been using AWS tech stack as it's the backbone and has been using many utilities to help scale their product.
Available Executors
S3 Select Executor
This utility provides a set of python scripts to effectively run S3 Select commands on the AWS S3 files. Used for validation and ad hoc filtering. Documentation
AMI Backup Executor
This function is for creating AMI as a backup for required instance and delete older AMI's based on the retention period we provide. Every AMI and EBS Snapshots created will inherit all tags from instance
RDS Disaster Recovery
The scripts present can be used to setup disaster recovery for RDS in AWS. It creates a manual snapshot of the current db present in production(source) region, then copies that snapshot to the DR(destination) region and if the disaster occurs db can be restored from the snapshots present in the DR region.
Route53 Entry Creation
The script present automates the process of creating/modifying the AWS Route 53 entries via a python script using Boto3(Amazon Web Services SDK for Python)
