Purchase and add a public DNS name both ELB.

Add a persistant data source to the infrastructure.

Could be useful for :

• API queries
• Save monitoring metrics

By taking advantages of the featured offered by Tornado, it would be a good idea to provide a non blocking API instead of what we have now.

It might force us to change database engine or at least change python database client library.

Add IAM roles to provide access to static ressources (RDS, S3 ...) from EC2 instances (api)

Back instances are for now not accessible from public network thanks to tight security groups.

It could be improved by:

• removing their public IPs
• providing them a NAT Gateway
• Changing the back load balancer type to Internal

Publish a basic RestAPI to actually have something to host.

The goal is just to build a simple front website receiving and serving user's requests.

It should implement API methods (by order of importance):

• GET (All bananas, single banana)
• POST
• DELETE
• PUT/PATCH

No CSS design should be needed.

Support HTTPS on the entry point of the infrastructure (i.e. ELBs)

Add a bastion host to allow sshing into each of the instance securely.

Will be useful for future debugging for the hosted RestAPI

Publish README for each part of this project to define my approach and this project goals.
Explain some of my design choices.

API is working but poorly documented.
At least PyDoc should be written to describe it's methods and handlers.
