Building a Scalable AWS Application Architecture: From EC2 to Load Balancer and Auto Scaling

Short summary

Modern AWS deployments require more than a single EC2 instance to handle production traffic. This guide walks through building scalable architecture using VPC, Application Load Balancer, Auto Scaling groups, and Terraform for infrastructure-as-code. Automating deployments through CI/CD pipelines and dynamic scaling based on traffic demand ensures reliability and cost efficiency.

• •Load Balancer distributes traffic across multiple EC2 instances for redundancy
• •Auto Scaling dynamically adjusts instance count based on traffic demand
• •Infrastructure-as-Code approach using Terraform enables repeatable, reviewable deployments
