HOW TO CONFIRM A STELLAR HORIZON SERVER ON AWS
HOW TO CONFIRM A STELLAR HORIZON SERVER ON AWS
Stellar is a platform that allows bank connectivity and payments system, as well as people to connect with each other. It was created to facilitate money flow and transactions quickly and efficiently, with minimal costs and trust.
What is a Stellar Horizon Server and what do you think it means?
Horizon is an API server for the Stellar ecosystem. It acts as an interface between applications that want to access the Stellar network or stellar-core. Horizon lets you send transactions to the Stellar network and tracks the account status. It also helps with event stream subscribing. Horizon provides an HTTP API to the Stellar network. It consumes and stores the data from the Stellar network in an easier-to-use format than the performance-oriented data representations of Stellar Core.
Establishing Process for DNS and https Certification
Blockchain's nature is intrinsically encrypted, which makes cross-asset transactions extremely convenient. It is distributed and community-owned, which increases its popularity. Stellar Consensus Protocol is used to support the stellar platform's security. Stellar is a public ledger, and the creation of https has not received much attention.
This is a serious concern that needs to be addressed. Users are directing their mobile apps to access their wallets. iOS refuses non-encrypted URLs. This problem can be solved in many ways, but the following is one:
Set up an AWS Load Balancingr
Select the Classic Load Balancingr to start. The next page maps the HTTPS port 443 to the instances' HTTP port 801. This is where your Horizon server is located. Create a new security group that allows ports 443 through the Load Balancer. Next, create a free SSL certificate on your AWS console. This is a simple process that will take you to the Certificate Manager page. Finally, add your page on the Load Balancer. It will be live in the next few minutes.
Route53 allows you to configure DNS
Finally, create a new record in your Route 53 zone records.
- Your subdomain, such as stellar-horizon.yourdomain.com, should be specified
- Type = A-IPv4 address
- Alias = Yes
- Alias Target - look under the ELB Load Balancings Classics to find your new load balancer.
Save and take a look at https://stellar-horizon.your-domain.com/or whatever you set up.
