About This Architecture

Full-stack serverless web application architecture on AWS combines Amplify frontend hosting with AppSync GraphQL API and Lambda-based compute. User requests flow through AWS WAF for threat protection, Cognito for authentication, and ELB for load distribution to ECS containers and Lambda functions within a VPC. Backend services leverage RDS for relational data, ElastiCache for session management, EFS for shared file storage, and S3 for media assets, with Secrets Manager and KMS securing credentials and encryption keys. CloudWatch monitors performance, Glue handles ETL workflows, and AWS Backup ensures disaster recovery across all stateful services.
