Deep Dive into the Cloud

In 2024, I realized that building an app is only half the battle; knowing where and how to host it is just as crucial. I moved my daily workflow entirely to **Linux**, which was a steep but rewarding learning curve. Mastery of the terminal opened up a new level of efficiency.

I then turned my attention to the **Cloud**. I started with **AWS**, learning everything from basic EC2 instances to complex serverless functions with Lambda. This year was about understanding **infrastructure as a service**. I built and deployed several small internal projects, focusing on scalability and security. Learning how to manage servers, databases in the cloud, and storage buckets gave me a holistic view of the software lifecycle, moving me closer to becoming a true **Full-Stack Engineer**.

Cloud Concepts

IAM Roles & Security Best Practices

Database Management in the Cloud

Docker Image Management

Challenges

Problem

High AWS costs from unused resources and misconfigured services.

Solution

Implemented monitoring and used AWS budgets, while optimizing resource allocation through serverless alternatives.
