Scalable AWS Architecture for Startups

The startup is developing a mobile app and is concerned about scaling quickly for growth, disaster recovery, user identity management, notifications, analytics, database performance, load distribution, self-healing, security, access management, archiving, and replicating environments. The objective is to recommend a scalable, secure, high-performing, elastic, fault-tolerant and recoverable architecture using AWS that allows the startup to organically grow. The deliverables are a 3-4 page PDF with an architecture diagram and explanation of how the solution addresses the requirements, along with assumptions and referenced AWS services.

AWS Architecture Design – Assignment #2

BRIEF

Imagine you meet a small startup company planning to launch a new mobile application that allows
consumers & service providers to interact real time. Currently their architecture uses a LAMP stack
comprising of open source software. Like many small start-ups they are confident that they will be the
next big thing and expect significant, rapid, yet un-quantified growth in the next few months. With this in
mind, they are concerned about the following:

• Scaling to meet the demand, but with uncertainty around when and how much this demand will
be – they are very concerned about buying too much infrastructure too soon or not enough too
late!

• Disaster Recovery planning

• Manage user identities & sync user specific data across multiple devices

• Ability for Service Providers to send notifications to consumer

• Ability to run analytics on top of collected data, with analytics they should be able to visualize &
understand app data usage

• Their ability to configure their database and data access layer for high performance and
throughput

• Effective distribution of load

• A self-healing infrastructure that recovers from failed service instances

• Security of data at rest and in transit

• Securing access to the environment as the delivery team expands

• An archival strategy for inactive objects greater than 6 months

• Ability to easily manage and replicate multiple environments based on their blueprint
architecture

OBJECTIVE

Recommend a manageable, secure, scalable, high performance, efficient, elastic, highly available, fault
tolerant and recoverable architecture that allows the startup to organically grow. The architecture should
specifically address the requirements/concerns as described above.

DELIVERABLES

• A Solution Document in PDF format, no greater than three to four pages in length that clearly &
succinctly present a solution addressing the startups requirement
• Solution document must have the proposed architecture diagram & explanation how the
solution will flow

• Clearly state all assumptions made during the design and explicitly state the referenced Amazon
Web Services

Once completed, send the document to [email protected]
