Print a list of aws buckets along with their tags
#!/bin/bash
# lists all buckets along with their tags in the following format:
# bucket_name | { tag_name: tag_value }
# depends on AWS CLI and JQ
for bucket in `aws s3api list-buckets | jq .Buckets[].Name | tr -d \"`; do
tags=$(aws s3api get-bucket-tagging --bucket $bucket | jq -c '.[][] | {(.Key): .Value}' | tr '\n' '\t')

Using aws-cli and jq

list all instances for all ASGs

aws autoscaling describe-auto-scaling-instances \
  | jq '.AutoScalingInstances[] | {AutoScalingGroupName, InstanceId}'

NGINX tuning for best performance

NGINX Tuning For Best Performance

For this configuration you can use web server you like, i decided, because i work mostly with it to use nginx.

Generally, properly configured nginx can handle up to 400K to 500K requests per second (clustered), most what i saw is 50K to 80K (non-clustered) requests per second and 30% CPU load, course, this was 2 x Intel Xeon with HyperThreading enabled, but it can work without problem on slower machines.

You must understand that this config is used in testing environment and not in production so you will need to find a way to implement most of those features best possible for your servers.
