AWS 3-Tier Multi-AZ Architecture with Security
About This Architecture
Multi-AZ 3-tier architecture spanning two AWS availability zones with Route 53 DNS, Internet Gateway, and dual Application Load Balancers routing traffic to Auto Scaling EC2 fleets across public and private subnets. Application tier EC2 instances communicate with RDS MySQL Primary and Standby databases via security groups enforcing least-privilege access, while NAT Gateways enable outbound connectivity from private subnets. Bastion hosts in public subnets provide secure SSH access to application servers, and security groups restrict inbound traffic to specific ports and sources. This architecture demonstrates AWS best practices for fault tolerance, zero-trust networking, and operational visibility using CloudWatch, CloudTrail, WAF, and Secrets Manager.
