AWS Infra Design & Provisioning - Case Study

Explore global infrastructure design and provisioning for large e-commerce apps, covering multi-region production, elastic fault-tolerant environments, native services, intrusion detection and prevention, automated deployment and batch management across clouds.

Discover aws infra design and provisioning through a case study, covering provisioning of infrastructure, intrusion detection, data security design, compliance, data migration, and batch management from Fortune 500 client experience.

Explore why public cloud improves availability for business-critical apps by distributing across data centers, enabling automated failover and on-demand managed services. Learn how control, SLAs, and staffing shape cloud adoption.

Design and implement a multi-account AWS structure with production and non-production separation, a management/billing account, and a disaster recovery account, with templates for provisioning and monitoring.

Explore VPC design options, including VPN, Direct Connect, and hub-and-spoke architectures for cross-region connectivity across US east, west, and Ireland, with hybrid setups improving reliability, security, and management.

Evaluate infrastructure provisioning options, comparing cloud formation with alternatives, noting templates, native tooling, and region support. We chose cloud formation for app provisioning due to ready templates and service focus.

Explore cloud infra design decisions for private subnet environments, balancing on-demand provisioning, cost optimization, production versus non-production separation, VPN connectivity, and non-overlapping IP ranges managed in code.

Explore intrusion detection and prevention using a sniffing appliance to monitor traffic for abnormal behavior, log analysis in security center, and automated traffic blocking to protect ID systems.

Learn how to design compliant cloud infrastructure with PCI standards, implement access controls, automate patch management, encryption, and testing, to protect data and meet regulatory requirements.

Explore virtual infrastructure security design: secure data in transit with SSL, data at rest encryption, a web application firewall, and controlled ingress and egress traffic, plus Nessus vulnerability scanning.

Explore options for migrating from Oracle Enterprise to open-source databases like MySQL or MariaDB, weighing licensing costs, feature gaps, and standard edition benefits with replication and automated backups.

Learn continuous integration and delivery by building an automated deployment pipeline that promotes code from stage to production across multiple regions, using Jenkins and rolling updates to minimize downtime.

Develop a cloud-based patch management strategy by automating deployment, updating code and patches via pipelines, and recycling instances to apply configurations and ensure continuous on-demand infrastructure.

Explore the solution workflow for AWS infra design and provisioning. Learn how code changes move from non-production to production, with Jenkins, virus scanning, log collection, alerts, and cloud formation automation.

Explore final reflections on AWS infra design and provisioning, detailing an e-commerce move to the US with compliance, security design including intrusion detection, and workspace-based infrastructure and deployment challenges.
