CLOUD
As businesses strive to enhance customer experiences by ensuring instant availability of applications and services, cloud hosting has emerged as a key solution to achieve high availability and fault tolerance. Explore how Alliance PRO leverages cloud hosting services to build a resilient infrastructure.
Challenge
The challenge is clear: businesses need to ensure instant access to applications and services to enhance customer experiences. The demand for 24/7 availability has never been higher.
Consider this:
67% of consumers say they would switch to a competitor after just one negative experience with a company. In today’s fast-paced digital infrastructure, downtime is simply not an option.
How industries leverage solutions to address this challenge
Industries address this challenge through a combination of strategies, including:
Load Balancing
Implementing load balancers, such as AWS Elastic Load Balancing, optimizes resource utilization and redirects traffic to healthy instances during failures.
Auto-Scaling
With unpredictable demand, auto-scaling becomes vital for optimal performance and cost efficiency. We utilize auto-scaling groups to dynamically adjust the number of instances based on demand.
Distributed Database
Ensuring data availability requires deploying distributed or replicated database solutions. We always leverage AWS database and storage services, spreading data across regions for redundancy and data loss prevention.
Resilient data backup and replication
We emphasize regular data backup and replication using native AWS services. By replicating data to separate regions or utilizing cloud hosting storage, potential data loss due to failures or disasters is mitigated.
The Alliance’s PRO Expertise
Multi-AZ and Multi-Region Architecture
Distributing infrastructure across multiple availability zones or geographic regions is fundamental for resilience. So, we implement multi-AZ deployments and regional distribution to minimize the impact of failures, ensuring continuous accessibility.
Load Balancing
Implementing load balancers, such as AWS Elastic Load Balancing, optimizes resource utilization and redirects traffic to healthy instances during failures. We leverage application, network, and gateway load balancers to maximize availability.

Monitoring and alerting
Proactive monitoring, utilizing both cloud-native and third-party tools, is crucial for issue identification and resolution. Automated alerts and notifications enable prompt action, maintaining system resilience.
Fault tolerance and resilience patterns
By implementing redundancy, failover mechanisms, and isolation, we design resilient and self-recovering components to minimize the impact of failures on infrastructure.
Disaster Recovery Plan
A well-defined disaster recovery plan is developed, documenting recovery steps, communication channels, and responsibilities. Regular testing ensures effectiveness and evolves the plan with infrastructure changes.
Immutable Infrastructure
We adopt an immutable infrastructure approach using CloudFormation or Terraform. This approach reduces configuration drift, enables faster recovery, and minimizes downtime.
Security and Access Management
Strong security measures, including encryption, firewalls, and access controls, are implemented to enhance resilience. AWS IAM policies ensure appropriate permissions and protect against unauthorized access.
Conclusion
Building a resilient infrastructure in the cloud hosting differs from traditional on-premises development. With the assistance of the AWS Resilience Hub and Trusted Advisor, Alliance PRO streamlines the process, enabling effective definition, assessment, validation, and tracking of application resilience.
