Shut down the *ArtifactoryPrimary* node first. When the new version starts, shut down the secondary nodes one by one. == Security // Provide post-deployment best practices for using the technology on AWS, including considerations such as migrating data, backups, ensuring high performance, high availability, etc. Link to software documentation for detailed information. By default, the load balancer does not match your certificate. You must configure the DNS according to your organization’s configuration, which is highly recommended for a production deployment. When you create a new VPC, the private subnet CIDR is automatically provided to the database security group *Artifactory-rds-sg*. In the new VPC, the private subnet is accessible only from the public subnet. When you deploy to an existing VPC, ensure similar rules are followed so that your Artifactory nodes are not accessible directly from the internet. Also, ensure that the private CIDR is correct and locked down. Avoid using `0.0.0.0/0`. If the subnet is a public subnet, it will allow your SQL database to be available from the internet. == Storage //Provide any other information of interest to users, especially focusing on areas where AWS or cloud usage differs from on-premises usage. A major difference between running on-premises and on AWS is storage. Because Amazon S3 is used, you are charged for what is currently in use rather than what may be allocated on premises. Ensure to https://www.jfrog.com/confluence/display/RTF/Monitoring+Storage[monitor your usage^].
