AWS Internship Repository

This repository contains the work I completed during my AWS virtual internship. It showcases my journey in designing and implementing scalable, reliable, and cost-effective cloud architecture using AWS services.

🌟 What I Worked On

• Designed a scalable hosting architecture for a startup using AWS Elastic Beanstalk.
• Built a robust CI/CD pipeline using CodePipeline to enable zero-downtime deployments.
• Integrated multiple AWS services to enhance application performance, scalability, and redundancy.
• Addressed real-world challenges like load balancing, database backups, and application scaling.

📚 What I Learned

• AWS Fundamentals: Gained hands-on experience with services like Elastic Beanstalk, EC2, RDS, S3, Route 53, and Elastic Load Balancer.
• Cloud Architecture Design: Developed a strong understanding of designing fault-tolerant and scalable cloud solutions.
• CI/CD Best Practices: Learned to implement blue-green deployment strategies for seamless application updates.
• Cost Optimization: Explored techniques to optimize cloud resource usage and manage costs effectively.

🛠️ Technologies Used

• AWS Services: Elastic Beanstalk, EC2, RDS (PostgreSQL), S3, Route 53, Elastic Load Balancer, CodePipeline.
• Programming and Scripting: Python for application integration, Bash for automating tasks.
• Version Control: GitHub for managing and showcasing project work.

🌍 Practical Scenarios

• Scalable API and Web Hosting: Designed an architecture that can handle traffic spikes using auto-scaling EC2 instances and load balancing.
• Database Redundancy: Configured RDS with a failover setup across multiple availability zones for high availability.
• Cloud Backup: Leveraged S3 for storing database snapshots and application backups.
• DNS Management: Used Route 53 to route traffic dynamically and improve application reliability.

🛠️ What I Built

• Hosting Architecture: Designed a solution to host APIs and web applications using AWS Elastic Beanstalk.
• CI/CD Pipeline: Set up an automated deployment pipeline using CodePipeline integrated with Elastic Beanstalk.
• Redundant Systems: Implemented multi-availability zone setups for increased application availability.
• Backup Strategy: Configured a backup system for databases and static assets using S3.

🚀 Key Takeaways

This internship gave me real-world exposure to AWS services and best practices in cloud architecture. It enhanced my skills in:

• Designing for scalability and redundancy.
• Implementing automation for deployment and backups.
• Collaborating on cloud-based projects.
