What the Architecture Covers
Network
A VPC with public and private subnets across two availability zones; only the load balancer is public.
Compute
Docker containers on ECS or EC2 behind an Application Load Balancer, with health checks and auto scaling.
Data
RDS PostgreSQL with automated backups and a read replica, plus ElastiCache Redis for caching and queues.
Storage and delivery
S3 for files and exports, CloudFront for static assets, Route 53 for DNS and HTTPS everywhere.
Security
Least-privilege IAM roles, secrets in a managed secrets store and security groups that only open what is needed.
Visibility
CloudWatch logs, metrics and alarms, so problems surface before users notice them.

In Practice
Applied in the Mobileriz multi-marketplace backend: The FastAPI backend runs on AWS in Docker containers with Prometheus monitoring.
