In this lab, you will learn how to design a scalable and fault-tolerant web application using multiple AWS services. The architecture will include an Elastic Load Balancer for distributing traffic, Amazon EC2 instances for processing requests, Amazon RDS for database management, and Amazon S3 for storage. By the end of this lab, you will be able to implement a resilient architecture that handles variable traffic and maintains high availability.
