Flask + MySQL on EKS
Two Tier Flask App Deployment
This project deploys a scalable two-tier Flask and MySQL application with modern DevOps practices. By leveraging Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, and AWS services, the deployment achieves reliable scaling, strong fault tolerance, and production-ready release automation.
Project Objective
The goal is to build and deploy a robust two-tier architecture capable of handling 10,000 concurrent users while maintaining consistency, reliability, and operational efficiency through containerization and cloud-native orchestration.
Feature Highlights
Fault Tolerance
Uses Kubernetes on AWS EKS to improve resilience and service availability.
Containerization
Dockerized Flask and MySQL stack ensures portability and consistency.
Automated Deployment
Helm-driven Kubernetes setup simplifies repeatable and efficient deployment.
CI/CD Workflow
DockerHub-based versioning and delivery streamline continuous deployment.
Reduced Downtime
AWS managed EKS setup helped reduce service downtime by nearly 60%.
Architecture Summary
The application is built as a two-tier system with a Flask service layer and a MySQL data layer. Docker images are deployed on Kubernetes, Helm assists with deployment management, and AWS EKS provides managed orchestration for scalability, reliability, and smooth operations.
