Review

The goal of Lab 1 was to expose you to the fundamentals of the existing monolith. We reviewed the basic architecture of the monolith environment, acquired the code for our application, and deployed that code to our infrastructure. We then proceeded to exercise that code by running our monolith application. We also explored the underlying code of our monolith to highlight the classic MVC model that is used to build this solution, focusing in on the services and how they are wired up via a controller. In true monolith form, the application was entirely rendered from a single unit of deployment. The web application and the supporting application services were all deployed as a unit to a cluster of EC2 instances. There was no awareness of tenancy in this environment whatsoever.

You have now completed Lab 1.
