AWS infrastructure optimization for a high-load application

Pine Dev Studio’s application required a robust and stable architecture because it involved multiple technologies working together:

• NodeJS & PHP – Used for handling server-side logic and processing user requests.
• PostgreSQL – A database that needed high availability and data integrity.
• Nginx – A web server and load balancer to manage incoming traffic efficiently.

The existing setup struggled with:

• unstable connections between front-end and back-end, leading to data loss;
• performance bottlenecks, slowing down the system and causing critical errors;
• a lack of proper traffic distribution, increasing server overload risks;
• no advanced backup system, making it harder to recover data in case of failures.

The project was technically complex because it required completely restructuring the AWS environment, ensuring that all components communicated efficiently and remained scalable under high-traffic loads.

To solve these challenges, AnyforSoft’s DevOps team designed a high-performance AWS architecture, ensuring stability, efficiency, and security.

The key improvements included:

• Separate subnets for better organization – Divided infrastructure into backend, frontend, and database subnets, improving security and preventing system-wide failures.
• Load balancing for high traffic management – Implemented dedicated load balancers for both frontend and backend, ensuring smooth request handling and reduced server overload.
• Database replication for reliability – Configured PostgreSQL database replication to prevent data loss and ensure backups were always available.
• Optimized AWS resource allocation – Fine-tuned AWS servers to improve speed and efficiency, leading to 24% faster performance.

We carefully aligned the new AWS setup with the client’s business and technical requirements, ensuring a more stable and scalable application.
