Humalike's production API backend on AWS combines CloudFront edge distribution, WAF protection, and an internal ALB routing traffic across 12+ ECS Fargate microservices in a VPC Lattice service mesh. API requests flow through Route 53 DNS, CloudFront caching layer, and WAF Web ACL before reaching the ALB, which path-routes to specialized services like svc-python, svc-credits, svc-billing, and svc-ws-gateway. Async workloads are decoupled via EventBridge and SQS queues with dead-letter queues, while Aurora PostgreSQL Serverless v2 provides read/write database separation and Secrets Manager secures credentials. This architecture demonstrates high-availability patterns across two AZs with NAT gateways, VPC endpoints for private SaaS integrations, and observability via PostHog, Better Stack, and Doppler.
