S3 Cross-Region Replication for Backup and Disaster Recovery

https://medium.com/@nickohene/s3-cross-region-replication-for-backup-and-disaster-recovery-70cda4e7224f

Cloud Engineer

Excited to share the final phase of my ongoing AWS S3 project—this time focusing on Cross-Region Replication (CRR) for backup and disaster recovery. 🌍

For this phase, I set up Cross-Region Replication on the S3 bucket hosting a static website for a local cafe.
This ensures that every object in the bucket is automatically replicated to another AWS region, providing robust data protection and enhancing disaster recovery.
By spreading data across different regions, the website remains resilient and accessible, even in the event of a regional outage.

Here’s what I accomplished:

🔄 Enabled Cross-Region Replication on the S3 bucket
🌐 Configured destination bucket in a different AWS region
✅ Verified that objects are consistently replicated across regions
🔍 Ensured replication rules align with business needs

This project has been a valuable learning experience in cloud resilience and disaster recovery planning. Looking forward to diving deeper into AWS!

I'm excited to share the next phase of my cloud project—this time, focusing on enhancing the management of our static website hosted on AWS S3 🎉

In this phase, I took the website's resilience and efficiency to the next level by enabling versioning and lifecycle policies on the S3 bucket. This ensures that every change is tracked and stored, providing a safety net against accidental deletions or overwrites.
Plus, with lifecycle policies in place, we're now automatically managing the storage of objects, keeping costs down and the bucket organized!

Here’s what I did:
☁ Enabled versioning to keep track of every object version.
☁ Set up lifecycle policies to transition objects to cost-effective storage tiers and automatically delete old versions when they're no longer needed
☁ Verified that all policies were correctly applied and tested the versioning rollback.

Excited to share my recent project on designing an architecture for an e-commerce platform targeting customers in Africa! 🌍

Leveraging AWS services to achieve:

  • Low latency with Amazon Route 53 and CloudFront
  • High availability using EC2 Auto Scaling and Multi-AZ RDS
  • Robust security with AWS Shield, WAF, IAM, KMS, and SSL/TLS
  • Efficient data storage in Amazon S3
  • Comprehensive monitoring and logging via CloudWatch and CloudTrail
  • Continuous configuration compliance with AWS Config

    This project underscored the importance of scalable, secure, and cost-effective cloud solutions.

I am thrilled to announce my first adventure in the Cloud! I created a static website for a local cafe shop using AWS S3. Initially, it was daunting as it was all new territory, but thanks to the incredible support from ALX GHANA & AWS Academy, I made it happen!

Reasons companies choose AWS S3 for static websites:
💰 Cost Efficiency
📈 Enhanced Scalability
🌐 High Availability
💡 Simplified Management

Here's what I accomplished:
☁ Created an S3 bucket in AWS
☁ Uploaded an index.html file, styles.css file, and images folder
☁ Configured the S3 bucket for static website hosting
☁ Ensured the website is publicly accessible
☁ Verified access through the bucket's website endpoint
