# Prerequisite For AWS DevOps Projects

Before we begin with the Project, we need to make sure we have the following prerequisites installed And Configured:

1. AWS Account with Administrator policy. You Can also give Specific permission to the user. Make sure you Generate **HTTPS Git credentials for AWS CodeCommit** for the user. This can be used to push code from a local source to a CodeCommit repository.
    
    * You can do this by going to **IAM** **\=>** **Users** **\=> Security credentials => HTTPS Git credentials for AWS CodeCommit => Generate credentials.**
        
2. EC2 Instance ( AMI- **Ubuntu**, Type- **t2.micro**, Region: **us-east-1** )
    
    You can Install CodeDeploy Agent by running the below script while creating an ec2 instance or after that. and these steps are for Ubuntu AMI.
    
    ```bash
    #!/bin/bash 
    # This installs the CodeDeploy agent and its prerequisites on Ubuntu 22.04.  
    sudo apt-get update 
    sudo apt-get install ruby-full ruby-webrick wget -y 
    cd /tmp 
    wget https://aws-codedeploy-us-east-1.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/releases/codedeploy-agent_1.3.2-1902_all.deb 
    mkdir codedeploy-agent_1.3.2-1902_ubuntu22 
    dpkg-deb -R codedeploy-agent_1.3.2-1902_all.deb codedeploy-agent_1.3.2-1902_ubuntu22 
    sed 's/Depends:.*/Depends:ruby3.0/' -i ./codedeploy-agent_1.3.2-1902_ubuntu22/DEBIAN/control 
    dpkg-deb -b codedeploy-agent_1.3.2-1902_ubuntu22/ 
    sudo dpkg -i codedeploy-agent_1.3.2-1902_ubuntu22.deb 
    systemctl list-units --type=service | grep codedeploy 
    sudo service codedeploy-agent status
    ```
    
3. Attach a service role to an EC2 instance with the following policy:

    *(Note: Restart codedeploy-agent service After attaching the service role policy to the EC2 instance)*

5. Create an S3 Bucket for storing your build artifacts.
    

Great🎊🎉 You're all set for the project. Your Ec2 Instance is now prepared for deploying the application.
