🚀 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

🏗️ Services Used

Layer AWS Service

Compute EC2

Networking VPC + Subnets

Load Balancing Application Load Balancer

Scaling Auto Scaling Group

Monitoring CloudWatch

Auditing CloudTrail

⚙️ 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

Created 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.
