The Role of AWS in Modern Cloud Architecture: Key Strategies for Scalable Deployment and Integration

Abstract

Abstract—The rise of cloud computing has had a tremendous impact on how businesses and organizations implement, manage, and grow their IT infrastructure, providing the opportunity for cost-effective, flexible, and on-demand resources that reduce operations costs. The broadest variety of services, such as networking, compute, storage, security, and Machine Learning (ML), are provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS), one of the biggest cloud service providers. In this paper, they analyze in detail the core offerings from AWS by providing the strategies for scalable deployment, including auto-scaling, containerization (Kubernetes, Docker), and using AWS Lambda for serverless computing. Furthermore, it also discusses the integration methods with hybrid cloud environments, on-premises systems & third-party so that the integration with them is seamless. Additionally, discussed are security and compliance concerns, including identity management, encryption, and industry regulatory limitations. In addition, cost optimization techniques of right-sizing resources, spot instances and reserved instances are evaluated to achieve the maximum of cloud efficiency. This study brings to light the impact of the cloud on raising the level of enterprise agility, operational resilience and digital transformation, and addressing key challenges in the process of cloud adoption and management, by way of reviewing the capabilities and best practices of AWS.
