About This Architecture

QuickRent is a multi-AZ MERN stack house rental platform leveraging AWS managed services for high availability and fault tolerance. Traffic flows through Route 53 DNS and CloudFront CDN to an AWS WAF-protected ALB, which routes requests to EC2 Node.js APIs and ECS Fargate React frontends across two availability zones. Session state persists in ElastiCache Redis, while DocumentDB stores rental listings, RDS PostgreSQL handles relational data, and DynamoDB indexes search queries for fast retrieval. Lambda functions handle email notifications via SES and search indexing, with Cognito managing tenant and owner authentication, CloudWatch monitoring the entire stack, and Secrets Manager securing credentials.

How do I architect a production-grade MERN rental platform on AWS with multi-AZ failover and managed databases?

QuickRent demonstrates a resilient MERN architecture spanning two AWS availability zones with Route 53 DNS, CloudFront CDN, and WAF for edge protection. EC2 Node.js APIs and ECS Fargate React frontends run in public subnets behind ALBs, while DocumentDB, RDS PostgreSQL, and DynamoDB provide multi-AZ data persistence with automatic failover. ElastiCache Redis handles sessions, Lambda manages notifi
