What are the lifecycle events during the execution of OpsWorks Stacks?

1. Deploy, Undeploy, Configure, Shutdown, and Backup

2. Setup, Configure, Deploy, Undeploy, and Shutdown

3. Init, Configure, Start, Stop, and Terminate

4. Setup, Cluster, Deploy, Remove, and Shutdown

The correct answer is: Setup, Configure, Deploy, Undeploy, and Shutdown

The lifecycle events during the execution of OpsWorks Stacks are vital for managing applications and their environments efficiently. The correct sequence consists of Setup, Configure, Deploy, Undeploy, and Shutdown. - **Setup** is the initial phase where resources are prepared. This includes allocating necessary infrastructure components such as instances and applications, essentially laying the groundwork for the environment where your application will run. - **Configure** refers to the process of setting up and configuring the resources that were provisioned during the Setup phase. This ensures that the environment is tailored to the specific needs of the applications that are going to be deployed. - **Deploy** is the actual implementation of the application in the configured environment. It is during this event that the application code is pushed from the repository to the newly set up instances. - **Undeploy** involves removing the application from the instances while ensuring that the infrastructure is not impacted. This allows for applications that are no longer needed to be neatly taken out without causing disruption to other services. - **Shutdown** is the final stage where instances are stopped and resources are cleaned up. This is crucial for cost management and is performed once the application is no longer needed or during the maintenance of the environment. This sequence highlights the orderly process
