I have a front-end hosted on a server that invokes a back-end server, i.e. an Elastic Load Balancer (ELB), and using the Elastic Beanstalk for deployment, therefore it takes care of autoscaling.
Ember / Front-end → ELB → Autoscaled EC2 instances with Nginx servers
Now I want to add an API between them and make sure that the ELB only accepts requests from the API gateway. I found that → here <- But I'm using AWS Certificate Manager to push my SSL certificates, and not sure how to use the PEM file / certificate provided by the API gateway.
Can I connect the Client Gateway API to the client side file through the certificate manager (console / cli / where) along with the SSL certificates that I bought?
Is it possible to complete SSL on ELB and use the API gateway key.
To my horror, do I need to manually configure the certificates in the nginx configuration in the .ebextensions file? if so, is there a better way not to push the file with my son in the code repo and use it separately?
