    Highly Available 3-Tier Architecture on AWS (VPC, EC2, RDS, ALB, S3, IAM, CloudWatch)

    Designed and deployed a production-grade 3-tier architecture on AWS using VPC, subnets, EC2, RDS, ALB, IAM, S3, and CloudWatch. Implemented networking, security, monitoring, automation, and high availability best practices. This project simulates real-world AWS workloads and demonstrates strong troubleshooting, architectural, and operational cloud skills.

    3-Tier Architecture Deployment & Operations

  • •Designed a custom VPC with public and private subnets across two Availability Zones to ensure high availability of application and database layers.
  • •Configured networking components including Internet Gateway, NAT Gateway, Route Tables, and NACLs to manage secure traffic flow between tiers.
  • •Deployed EC2 Auto Scaling Group with Launch Templates for the application layer, enabling automatic scaling based on CPU and request load metrics.
  • •Implemented a highly available Application Load Balancer (ALB) to distribute traffic across EC2 instances and perform health checks for fault tolerance.
  • •Set up an Amazon RDS (MySQL/PostgreSQL) instance in private subnets for secure database storage and automated backups, snapshots, and Multi-AZ failover.
  • •Configured S3 buckets for static asset hosting, log archival, and application backup workflows with bucket policies and lifecycle management rules.
  • •Secured the environment by creating IAM roles, instance profiles, customer-managed policies, and enforcing least-privilege access across all AWS services.
  • •Implemented CloudWatch alarms, EC2 metrics, log groups, and dashboards, enabling proactive monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance optimization.
    • ASHWANI KUMAR
  • •Automated environment provisioning using CloudFormation or Terraform, enabling version-controlled, repeatable, and scalable infrastructure deployments.
  • •Performed real-world troubleshooting tasks such as ALB health check failures, EC2 SSH access issues, subnet routing problems, RDS connectivity errors, and S3 permission denials - simulating AWS Support workflow.

    • End-to-End DevOps Pipeline Automation: CI/CD, IaC, Containerization, and AWS Cloud Management (Environment: AWS, Linux, Git, Jenkins, Ansible, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes)

    Designed and implemented an end-to-end DevOps automation ecosystem integrating CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, configuration management, containerization, orchestration, and AWS cloud operations. Delivered highly automated, scalable, and reliable deployment workflows aligned with modern DevOps and cloud engineering best practices.

    DevOps Pipeline Automation & Cloud Operations

  • •Designed and managed CI/CD pipelines in Jenkins, automating code builds, unit tests, security scans, and multi-environment deployments with pipelines as code (Jenkinsfile).
  • •Provisioned AWS infrastructure using Terraform, including VPC, EC2, Security Groups, ELB/ALB, IAM, and S3, enabling consistent, scalable, and version-controlled environment creation.
  • •Automated configuration and application deployment using Ansible, developing reusable playbooks and roles for server hardening, package installation, and application rollout.
  • •Built and optimized Docker container images, implementing multi-stage builds, secure base images, and automated image publishing to Docker Hub or ECR.
  • •Deployed and managed Kubernetes clusters, orchestrating containerized apps with Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps, Secrets, and Horizontal Pod Autoscalers for scalable workloads.
  • •Architected secure AWS cloud environments, implementing VPC subnets, route tables, IAM roles, S3 storage management, EC2 Auto Scaling Groups, and monitoring integrations.
  • •Integrated Nexus artifact repository with CI/CD pipelines to store and version Maven build artifacts, ensuring reliable dependency management and secure artifact distribution.
  • •Managed GitHub repositories using Git best practices, including branching strategies (GitFlow), pull requests, merging, and automated job triggers via webhooks.
  • •Implemented end-to-end automation workflows, enabling fast, repeatable, and zero-downtime deployments across dev, staging, and production environments.
  • •Performed real-world troubleshooting, including Terraform state conflicts, Jenkins build failures, Ansible playbook errors, Docker image issues, K8s crash loops, and AWS IAM permission denials.
