In modern cloud environments, deploying an application on a single server is rarely enough. As user traffic increases, applications need to handle higher loads, maintain availability, and recover from failures automatically.

In my previous blog, I discussed how Terraform and CI/CD pipelines help automate AWS infrastructure deployment. In this article, we will take the next step and explore how to design a scalable and highly available AWS application architecture using:

Amazon EC2

Application Load Balancer (ALB)
