About This Architecture

Classic AWS three-tier architecture featuring an Application Load Balancer distributing traffic across EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling Group. Internet traffic flows through the ALB in a Public Subnet to application servers in a Private Subnet, which connect to RDS PostgreSQL with read replica failover. Static assets are served from S3, offloading compute resources while the database tier maintains high availability through primary-replica replication. Ideal for architects validating VPC segmentation and scaling patterns.
