Deployment is an essential stage of any software development project. With the fast-paced modern agile software development needs, deployment frequency increases rapidly. Although it looks very appealing to often release due to its positive impact on customer satisfaction and improved customer engagement, it is risky at the same time. What if the deployment goes wrong on production? It will have a much more significant negative impact on the business if you do not have the right expertise to support frequent deployments and the proper deployment tools. In this article, we will go through some of the best deployment practices. Following these will ensure that you can frequently deploy on any scale correctly. Let’s jump in.

When designing a solution, you should keep future needs in mind. If the number of users increases dramatically in a short period of time, the solution should be scalable enough to handle the new growth. Making systems scalable on cloud is relatively easier as compared to scaling on-premises infrastructure. AWS has provided excellent tools/services to enable your applications for as much scalability as you want. Note that scaling down is as important as scaling up because cost is important when designing for scalability. In this two-part article, we will go through the tools and services provided by Amazon, which can help you scale your existing AWS infrastructure. Let’s go through these services and evaluate the benefits and business cases of each of these.

Welcome to the second post in a series of “How to Scale your AWS Infrastructure”. In the first post, we talked about horizontal scaling, autoscaling, CI/CD, infrastructure automation, containerization, etc. In this post, we will continue the discussion around databases, loose coupling, caching, CDN, etc.  Let’s start the discussion with database scaling.

Do you need to manage hundreds of Kubernetes clusters, or are you just curious to know why you could potentially need more than two clusters, or do you want to see the magic behind it? You are in the right place because you’re about to learn everything there is to know about it.

Let’s face it. Gaining a competitive advantage in the target market is expensive. Even if you have a good idea and its execution plan in mind, operations related to management, storage, networking, service provisioning, security, and application management will cost you a fortune. To say the least, a cutting-edge IT infrastructure, a reliable team, and a strategy for rapid product releases or expansion/scaling is a must for your product’s success.  As a startup, going forward with rolling or building your own solution could prove to be tiring and much over the budget. It will eat up your team's time in the building, rebuilding, scaling, refactoring, following security measures, and whatnot.  Assuming that you are developing a solution with the wish to succeed, your initial product or MVP needs to be altered frequently too. In such a scenario, AWS Managed Services can simplify your life. Read what it is, what are its pros and cons, and how to reach the final verdict between whether to release your own solution or go ahead with AWS Managed Services.

Containerization packages a software component and its environment, dependencies, and configuration into an isolated unit called a container. That makes it possible to deploy an application consistently across different computing environments, whether on-premises or on the cloud. The concept of containerization is more than a decade old. Still, the emergence of Docker in 2013 - an industry standard for containers with simple development tools and a universal packaging approach - has accelerated the adoption of the technology. Organizations are now increasingly using containerization to build new applications and to modernize existing applications for the cloud. They start and stop much faster as compared to virtual machines. They are more portable because container host environments are very consistent, irrespective of the operating system hosting them. Containerized applications are easy to scale because containers can be added or removed quickly from an environment.
