About This Architecture

Highly available AWS web application architecture combining Route 53 DNS resolution with Application Load Balancer for intelligent traffic distribution. User requests flow through HTTPS to an Auto Scaling Group containing EC2 instances and ECS containers within a VPC. Both compute options connect via SQL to RDS PostgreSQL, enabling flexible deployment strategies with managed database reliability. Ideal for architects evaluating EC2 vs containerized workloads while maintaining consistent data persistence patterns. Fork this diagram on Diagrams.so to customize instance types, add caching layers, or extend with multi-AZ configurations.
