Distributed Architecture

Main AWS Services used:

• ECS / Fargate
• X-Ray
• SQS

Folder Structure:

  ├── container-process [python]
  ├── container-consume [nodejs]
  ├── container-xray [xray-daemon]

  └── docker-compose.yml

IPs & Ports:

• container-main: 8080
• container-process: 8082
• container-consume: 8081
• container-xray: 2000

Container Desccription:

• container-main: our main container that is exposed to the public
• container-process: a simple container that can communicate with the main one
• container-consume: is the container responsible for listening on SQS, if we have a message it consumes it
• container-xray: where our X-Ray daemon is stored, it will be responsible on listening all the http connections going on inside our network

APIs:

• Method: GET | Path: /api/path-one
• Method: GET | Path: /api/path-two (will communicate with our private container-process)
• Method: POST | Path: /api/send-message (will send SQS message) (takes message attribute inside the body: the message that needs to be send)
