Cost Effective Serverless Data Platform on AWS

A React Native app for retirement planning with advanced calculation capabilities based on customer profiles.​ I designed and built a cloud environment or infrastructure using cloud-native services for hosting this platform on AWS. With the protection of customer data in mind, I constructed a lambda function to extract the data from AWS RDS and publish it as a source for further processing and analyzing the customer data in Power BI.

AWS Well-Architected Review to Improve the Existing AWS Infrastructure

Engaged with a client to review their specific workloads using AWS Well-Architected Review. I provided a detailed report listing high-risk remediations and improved their overall architecture for the said workloads.

OUTCOMES
• Improved security provisions were made to secure clients' workloads using proven AWS services.
• Reduced cost savings without sacrificing degrading performance or availability.
• Established a baseline for effective governance and scalability.

AWS DevOps Architecture

Set up CI/CD pipelines for individual applications deployed on Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group (ASG) using AWS CodePipeline, AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodeDeploy, and AWS CloudFormation. I established monitoring and alerting
systems for production environments and a disaster recovery (DR) strategy for Multi-AZ and multi-region fault tolerance and resiliency in AWS. Also, I documented architecture diagrams and best practices to be followed by developers for day-to-day work.
