AWS infrastructure proof of concept for a containerized backend

a mobile application company · Devops engineer

The problem

A client needed a containerised backend on AWS, with a database, a cache and a message broker. The scope document described the target but not a working base.

What I built

I built a working proof of concept as code: a private network, a load-balanced container service and the supporting data services.

The result

The team had a working base to test against, instead of a document describing one.

Main tools

  • Terraform
  • Amazon VPC
  • Amazon ECS
  • Amazon RDS
  • Load balancer
