My Cloud Resume Challenge

Welcome to my Cloud Resume Challenge showcase! I've successfully completed the challenge, and here's how I went about it.

This repository showcases my implementation of the Cloud Resume Challenge. The challenge is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate proficiency in various AWS services and technologies while building a cloud-based resume.

Project Overview

The Cloud Resume Challenge project includes the following components:

1. Resume Website

The heart of the project is a dynamic and responsive resume website hosted on AWS. It highlights my skills, experiences, and projects, providing a comprehensive overview for potential employers.

2. Infrastructure as Code (IaC)

To ensure reproducibility and scalability, the project utilizes Infrastructure as Code. AWS CloudFormation templates are employed to define and provision the necessary infrastructure.

3. AWS Services Used

• Amazon S3: Hosting static website assets.
• Amazon CloudFront: Content delivery network for improved website performance.
• AWS Lambda: Serverless functions for handling form submissions or other server-side logic.
• Amazon API Gateway: Creating APIs to interact with Lambda functions.
• Amazon DynamoDB: Storing data such as form submissions or other dynamic content.
• AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM): Managing permissions and access control.
• AWS Certificate Manager (ACM): Securely managing SSL/TLS certificates for HTTPS.

4. Languages and Technologies

• HTML/CSS/JavaScript: Front-end development for the resume website.
• Python: Used for Lambda functions and server-side scripting.
• AWS CloudFormation: YAML/JSON templates for defining infrastructure.
• Terraform: Infrastructure as Code tool for managing cloud resources.

CI/CD Implementation

For continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD), GitHub Actions is utilized. A YAML file (front-endCICD.yaml) in the repository defines the CI/CD workflow, automating the build, test, and deployment processes.
