Deployments & environments
Docker, staging/preview and reproducible releases for predictable launches.
AWS S3
Object storage for uploads, backups and static assets.
Services
Reliability & scaling
Handle traffic spikes, decouple services and keep operations smooth.
Security & observability
Monitoring, logging, alerts and backup strategies for robust infrastructure.
AWS S3 is the go‑to option for reliable object storage: perfect for uploads, backups, exports and static assets. I often use S3 as a central storage layer that integrates cleanly with frontends, backends and automation—fast and secure.
Typical use cases
S3 works great for user uploads (images, PDFs), backup strategies, media libraries, export files (CSV/JSON) and as an origin for CDN delivery (e.g. CloudFront). It’s also a pragmatic starting point for data‑lake style pipelines.
Security & governance
Good defaults include bucket policies and least‑privilege IAM, encryption (SSE‑S3 or SSE‑KMS), versioning and lifecycle rules (retention, archiving, cleanup). For uploads I often use pre‑signed URLs so files go directly from client to S3 without unnecessary server traffic.
Integration in web stacks
In Laravel/Nuxt setups I use S3 for assets, media and export pipelines. S3 events can trigger workflows—like image optimisation or validation via Lambda/queues. With clean caching and URL strategies delivery stays fast and maintainable.
S3 is a simple, robust foundation—and becomes truly powerful when policies, lifecycle and integration are planned upfront.
