Migrate Website to AWS Cloud This is a quick tip to migrate your existing website to AWS Cloud. I assume that you have basic knowledge of AWS Cloud and server side architecture. This post does not include a discussion of pros and cons of AWS or Cloud services. Elasticity and Auto-Scaling are two main features of Cloud. If we don’t leverage these feature then there isn’t any difference between hosting website in dedicate server or AWS Cloud.

What is Architecture (Software)? Architecture is the fundamental organization of a system embodied in its components (i.e. Web Server, Application Server, Databases,Storage, Communication layer, etc…), their relationships to each other, and to the environment (i.e. deployment environment shared server, dedicated server, cloud deployment, etc..), and the principles guiding its design and evolution. What is microservice architecture ? Microservice means developing a single, small, meaningful functional feature as single service, each service has it’s own process and communicate with lightweight mechanism, deployed in single or multiple servers.
