Crafting Robust Applications Across AWS, On-Premises, and Data Centers: A Comprehensive Technical Guide
- This technical blog explores how AWS services, tools, and strategies can address modern challenges in cloud strategy, security posture, disaster recovery, and more.
- AWS Outposts, VMware Cloud on AWS, and AWS Local Zones can extend AWS services to on-premises environments for low-latency applications and deploy applications closer to end-users.
- Terraform or Crossplane can be used for multi-cloud IaC management. AWS Transit Gateway is ideal for secure and scalable connectivity between clouds.
- AWS Migration Hub, AWS DMS and AWS Snow Family are tools that help minimize downtime and cost efficiency during migration. Strategies like Route 53 Weighted DNS, RDS Multi-AZ Deployments and blue-green deployments also reduce the impact on production systems.
- AWS Security Hub, Amazon GuardDuty, and AWS Firewall Manager ensure security and compliance across AWS and on-premises environments. Self-Remediation with AWS Lambda triggered by CloudWatch Events can help fix non-compliant resources in real-time.
- Amazon ECS and EKS, AWS Lambda, and ALB are some of the AWS services used for scalability and improving high availability. Amazon RDS Multi-AZ and Amazon Route 53 ensure failover capabilities and DNS failover and traffic routing based on health checks.
- AWS Cost Explorer, AWS Trusted Advisor, and Savings Plans & Reserved Instances are some of the tools that help organizations manage cloud cost effectively. Spotify and Slack are case-studies of organizations that utilize cost monitoring tools to save costs.
- AWS Backup, AWS DRS, Amazon S3 Versioning and Replication, and Pilot Light or Warm Standby Architectures are some AWS solutions for disaster recovery and backup. Bank of America and Airbnb are examples of organizations that deploy cross-region disaster recovery setups with high goals.
- Amazon CloudWatch, AWS X-Ray, and Amazon OpenSearch Service are some tools provided by AWS to help with observability and monitoring. LinkedIn and Monzo Bank are examples of organizations that utilize custom monitoring pipelines with high-frequency metrics collection.
- AWS CodePipeline, AWS CodeDeploy, and AWS CodeBuild can be used for deployment automation, along with IaC Tools like CloudFormation or Terraform. Tesla and Pinterest utilize advanced CI/CD pipelines with Helm charts for application deployment automation.
