The Challenge

Nirmaan’s AWS infrastructure faced challenges with a single EC2 instance hosting both the application and database, limiting scalability, resource efficiency, and increasing security risks. The lack of managed database solutions, automated monitoring, and proactive threat detection created operational inefficiencies and vulnerabilities, necessitating a comprehensive re-architecture.

Solutions

• Implemented a multi-tier architecture with separate subnets for better resource segregation and security.
• Migrated the database to Amazon RDS for MySQL with Multi-AZ for improved availability.
• Deployed Amazon EC2 instances in a custom Amazon VPC with public and private subnets for traffic control.
• Configured AWS CloudTrail and Amazon CloudWatch for real-time monitoring and logging.
• Enabled automated backups with AWS Backup and a retention policy for Amazon EC2 and Amazon RDS.
• Enhanced security with AWS WAF, GuardDuty, and Inspector for threat mitigation.
• Secured the environment by enforcing AWS IAM best practices, including MFA and least privilege access.

The Results

Achieved 60% better security, 99.99% database uptime, 50% reduced latency, and enhanced threat detection, visibility, and data resilience with AWS solutions.
