## AWS ELB - Application Load Balancer
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
Two EC2 instances with a simple web application that shows the web page with the string "Hey, it's a me, `<HOSTNAME>`!"

||||
### Objectives
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create an application load balancer for the two instances you have, with the following properties
|
||||
1. healthy threshold: 3
|
||||
2. unhealthy threshold: 3
|
||||
3. interval: 10 seconds
|
||||
2. Verify load balancer is working (= you get reply from both instances at different times)
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution
