• designing 3-tier web architecture

  • building POC - network, compute, storage requirements
  • validating requirements - monitoring, load balancing, autoscaling, resiliance
  • design poc + 3-tier architecture

• single page app

  • The IT team has built a single-page application stored in Amazon S3 to manage these collector vehicles, but the API is not returning expected results when listing vehicles or retrieving individual vehicle details. The team wants to troubleshoot the deployed application, identify configuration issues across their S3, API Gateway, and Lambda integration, and fix the problems to get the system operational.

• container services

  • A premier medical research center has decided to launch key applications bundled in Docker containers to improve portability and deployment efficiency. The center wants a solution to store, manage, and share their Docker images securely across research teams. They desire a fast, efficient container orchestration environment that can handle their services without the overhead of managing underlying infrastructure.

• DNS

  • The city newspaper operates an internal news source server that reporters and employees use to track and vet important sources, currently accessible only through a numeric IP address. The current IP-based access method is difficult for employees to remember and creates a poor user experience. The newspaper's IT team wants to implement a more meaningful, memorable domain name system for internal access to improve usability and productivity.

• content delivery networks - CDNs

  • A game development startup has received customer complaints about slow loading times for their new online gaming landing page. The company has attempted to host game content in multiple regions around the world, but delays persist for users in various locations. They want a reliable solution to improve content delivery speed and reduce latency for their global player base.

• designing compliant, secure, governed architecture

  • protecting data in transit
  • protecting apps w aws shield and WAF
  • aws secrets manager
  • securing data w encryption
  • aws kms
  • cloud governance, security monitoring, logging strategies

• resource governance

  • An innovation lab employs numerous young innovators who frequently launch AWS resources but sometimes forget to enable critical security features such as S3 bucket versioning and encryption. The lab also struggles to ensure that proper tag identifiers are consistently applied to resources for tracking and governance purposes. The lab wants an automated way to identify noncompliant resources and enforce consistent standards across all launched infrastructure.
