01 / ABOUT

Infrastructure first.
Learn by building.

Understanding how systems, networks and cloud services work together to deliver reliable infrastructure.

I am Prasad G M, with a technical background in IT operations, system administration, networking and cloud technologies.

My technical interests include AWS services, Linux system administration, Windows Server, network troubleshooting, virtualization and infrastructure deployment.

I work on practical lab environments to understand service configuration, access control, connectivity, security and troubleshooting. My goal is to strengthen my cloud and infrastructure engineering skills through real implementations.

04 / ARCHITECTURE

How cloud components connect.

Example architecture for an internet-facing, highly available web application hosted on AWS.

01 / CLIENT User browser
02 / DNS Route 53
03 / ENTRY Application Load Balancer
04 / NETWORK AWS VPC
↓ HTTPS / DNS / REQUEST ROUTING ↓
AZ 1 EC2 web server
AZ 2 EC2 web server
STORAGE Amazon S3 / EBS
SECURITY IAM / Security Groups

Design note: the load balancer forwards traffic to healthy targets. For private EC2 instances, use appropriate routing and outbound connectivity when required. S3 and EBS serve different storage purposes; they are not interchangeable.
