Key Takeaways
- β’Event-driven architectures use Lambda, SNS, SQS, EventBridge for asynchronous, decoupled processing
- β’Microservices communicate via synchronous (API Gateway, ALB) or asynchronous (SQS, SNS, Kinesis) patterns
- β’Multi-layer caching (CloudFront edge, API Gateway, DAX, ElastiCache) dramatically improves performance and reduces costs
- β’High availability requires multi-AZ deployments, Auto Scaling, Route 53 health checks, and automated recovery
- β’HPC on AWS uses cluster placement groups, Enhanced Networking (ENA, EFA), FSx for Lustre, and AWS Batch for parallel jobs
