Detailed Description

In this session we will start with a basic Drupal site running on the simplest useful architecture: a single AWS EC2 server. From there we will teach you how to decouple and scale the individual aspects of the infrastructure for a production environment. We will incorporate multiple AWS managed services such as RDS, elasticache, S3, and Cloudfront and explore the benefits of using these managed services over their self-managed counterparts. This class is meant to be a deep dive into some specific areas while explaining the broader general steps. At the end of this session you will understand how to represent a scalable application architect of a production Drupal site running on decoupled cloud infrastructure.

Laptop with modern browser
