I wanted to launch a new update to my web app I ended up changing the operating system on my EC2

0

Hello everyone, I have a webapp on production and here are my configs:

  • OS is Amazon Linux 2
  • Backend hosted in my EC2 with a CodeDeploy pipeline between AWS and Github
  • I have an elastic IP Address
  • Webapp has a website and a mobile app
  • Frontend is hosted in another EC2 instance
  • I have a script in my backend that does the automation of the build and deployment each time I push to GitHub

I wanted to do some minor changes to my backend but I could not due to glibc as shown in the image bellow https://preview.redd.it/3wmkhably83a1.png?width=1537&format=png&auto=webp&s=7c1a34ef09598482dd628ed93715a6b5eddf6353

After research I found out that Amazon Linux 2 does not update the libraries that are needed by node as shown in this link:

Now I am thinking of installing a new OS in my EC2 and I do not quite see all risks that might affect my clients.

Any suggestions ?
