Look inside

As a lead DevOps engineer, you’ve learned that using Fargate to host a database is not ideal. Your task is to solve that problem by attaching permanent storage to the container and adding important maintenance features. To deliver this solution, you’ll set up an AWS Aurora PostgreSQL with CDK, integrate it with a Fargate service, and keep the connection between the service and the database secure with AWS Secret Manager. When you’re done, you’ll have a working end-to-end solution ready to be deployed with CDK.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
