E-Commerce Platform — AWS Architecture Template
CDN-fronted storefront on ECS with Cognito sign-in, Aurora, Redis, and asynchronous order processing via SQS.
Why this architecture works
- CloudFront serves product images from S3 and shields the storefront, cutting origin load during sales spikes
- Order placement is decoupled through SQS so checkout stays fast even when downstream fulfilment is slow
- Cognito offloads authentication, MFA, and token handling from the application code
- WAF rate-limiting rules blunt bot-driven inventory scraping and credential stuffing
- ElastiCache holds carts and hot product data, keeping Aurora reserved for transactional writes
