Migration of Web Applications to AWS Cloud

Migration of Web Applications to AWS Cloud

CloudDog presents a high-performance WordPress hosting solution, leveraging the powerful services of AWS Cloud to enhance performance and security. Our architecture includes AWS WAF for robust web application firewall protection, ensuring your site is shielded from common web exploits. We utilize Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) to distribute incoming traffic across multiple targets, such as Amazon EC2 instances, for fault tolerance and high availability. Amazon EC2 provides scalable compute capacity, while Auto Scaling ensures you have the right number of EC2 instances available to handle your application's load. For database needs, we use Amazon Aurora, offering high-performance and reliable database solutions.

Features

  • AWS WAF for Advanced Security: Protects your site against online threats, reducing the risk of cyber attacks and ensuring reliability for users.
  • Elastic Load Balancing and Auto Scaling: This combination ensures efficient traffic distribution and dynamic resource adjustment, optimizing performance and ensuring high availability. This results in uninterrupted and reliable service while maintaining operational efficiency and controlling costs.
  • Amazon Aurora for Database Scalability: Offers a high-performance database system, ensuring fast and reliable transactions essential for customer loyalty, providing auto scaling for reads which favors performance on high-demand sites.
  • Amazon FSx for Lustre for Shared Data: This storage solution offers high performance for websites that require high availability and shared storage between multiple instances, starting with capacities of 1.2TB, exclusively available in the high availability version of the solution.
