Case Study Overview
A web application required controlled ingress, certificate management, separate compute roles, relational data, serverless processing, and managed storage and secrets inside a structured VPC.
Cloud Architecture
Amazon Web ServicesLayered AWS VPC Web Application Platform
A layered AWS application architecture with centralized ingress, separated frontend and backend compute, managed data, serverless processing, packages, and secrets.
Anonymized architecture case study
Outcome
A clear network and service layout that centralizes ingress and certificates, separates workload roles, and provides managed paths for data, packages, and secrets.
Architecture Approach
- 1Centralize DNS, certificates, and ingress with Route 53, ACM, and an Application Load Balancer.
- 2Separate frontend and backend EC2 responsibilities within the application network.
- 3Place relational data in a dedicated RDS for MySQL service boundary.
- 4Connect Lambda, NAT, S3 package and data locations, and Secrets Manager through explicit managed paths.
