🚀 AWS Enterprise Production Architecture – Real DevOps Project
Today I built a real production-style AWS architecture from scratch and pushed the complete project to GitHub.
This project demonstrates how real companies host scalable, highly available applications on AWS.
🌍 Architecture Overview
✔ Highly Available
✔ Auto Scaling
✔ Self Healing Infrastructure
✔ Monitoring + Auditing
✔ Production Ready Design

⚙️ Step 1 — Custom VPC Setup
Created custom VPC:
CIDR: 10.0.0.0/16
Subnets:
Public Subnet 1 → 10.0.1.0/24
Public Subnet 2 → 10.0.3.0/24
Private Subnet → 10.0.2.0/24
Attached:
Internet Gateway
Public Route Table
💻 Step 2 — Launch EC2 Web Server
Installed Apache:
sudo yum update -y
sudo yum install httpd -y
sudo systemctl start httpd
sudo systemctl enable httpd
echo "
My AWS Production Server
" | sudo tee /var/www/html/index.htmlCreated Golden AMI from this server.
⚖️ Step 3 — Application Load Balancer
Created:
Target Group
Registered EC2 instances
Listener → HTTP : 80
Result → Load balanced traffic across servers.
🔁 Step 4 — Auto Scaling Group (Self Healing)
Configured Auto Scaling:
Min = 1
Desired = 2
Max = 3
Tested by terminating instances manually.
AWS automatically launched new server 🤯
Self-healing infrastructure achieved.
📊 Step 5 — CloudWatch Monitoring
Created alarms on:
CPU Utilization < 49%
Auto Scaling reacts to traffic automatically.
🔐 Step 6 — CloudTrail Auditing
Enabled CloudTrail to track:
Instance termination
API calls
Security events
Verified logs after terminating servers ✔
🧪 Real Test Performed
I manually terminated all EC2 instances.
Result:
Auto Scaling → Launched new server automatically
CloudTrail → Logged termination event
CloudWatch → Triggered alarm
🎉 Production architecture working perfectly.
