Welcome to the Renan Wiki. This platform is a high availability, production grade demonstration of how we can transform traditional web applications into modern, cloud native architectures. At its heart, this project represents a deliberate move away from the old reliance on physical hardware toward a serverless, security first mindset. This transition is brought to life through Infrastructure as Code concepts, using AWS Fargate to take manual server patching off the table. Beyond just being serverless, the platform is built with hardened security in mind. The entire stack is isolated within a custom Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and uses enterprise grade encryption to protect data at every stage, including AES 256 storage encryption on RDS and enforced SSL/TLS for anything moving across the network.
