AWS Development

AWS built on the right abstractions. Not all of them.

AWS architecture at Empyreal Infotech uses Lambda, RDS, and ECS with infrastructure-as-code discipline to eliminate cost surprises and operational guesswork.

Lambda for functions. RDS for databases. ECS for containers. CDK for infrastructure as code. You choose the abstractions. We handle the operations and cost.

Founder-led. Senior engineers only. Your architecture partner, not your vendor.

AWS Reality

Power, not simplicity.

AWS is the right choice when you need flexibility, cost control, and the ability to own your infrastructure decisions. It is the wrong choice if you want simplicity.

Three honest reasons: First, cost control. You pay for exactly what you use. No minimums. No overprovisioning. Second, portability. If you decide to move, you own your code and your data. Third, control. You decide the database, the compute strategy, the security model. That control is power. It is also responsibility.

What We Build with AWS

Six building blocks.

Lambda

Serverless functions. Scales from zero. Pay per invocation. Ideal for event-driven workflows and API backends.

RDS

Managed relational databases. Postgres, MySQL, MariaDB. Automated backups, point-in-time recovery, read replicas.

ECS/Fargate

Container orchestration without Kubernetes overhead. Fargate is serverless containers. You define the task, AWS runs it.

CDK

Infrastructure as code in Typescript. CloudFormation without YAML. Version control your infrastructure. Test before deploy.

S3

Object storage. Versioning, encryption, lifecycle policies. CloudFront integration for edge delivery.

Cost Optimization

Reserved instances. Spot pricing. Automated scaling. Spending alerts. We architect for cost from the start.

Our Process

Four steps to production.

01

Discover

Workload profile, scale expectations, cost targets. AWS is flexible. We narrow the choices first.

02

Design

CDK architecture, compute strategy, database selection. Everything defined as code before we deploy.

03

Build

Functions, containers, databases. Observability from day one. Cost tracking built in.

04

Scale

Auto-scaling policies, cost optimization, performance tuning. We audit your bill monthly.

Reality

AWS in production — what matters at scale.

AWS is only expensive if you do not understand your workload. A Lambda function costs nothing if it is not invoked. RDS scales automatically. S3 costs scale predictably. The problem is not AWS. It is the architecture decisions made without cost awareness.

We architect for cost first. The outcome is a system that scales without surprising your CFO.

Next Step

Your product. Our AWS expertise. One conversation to start.

Production-ready AWS architecture in weeks. With Founder-level attention on cost, security, and scalability.

Questions

Frequently asked questions about our AWS development

Direct answers about how this engagement actually works. If your question is not here, ask Mohit directly.

We use Lambda, RDS, ECS, CDK for infrastructure-as-code, S3, and API Gateway heavily. We avoid managed services like Lightsail or Amplify that lock you into AWS. Everything we build is portable or replaceable if you need to switch later.
A full migration from on-premise or another cloud usually takes 300-500 hours depending on complexity. That's 10-15 weeks. A greenfield AWS build for a new product is usually 200-300 hours because we skip the legacy compatibility work.
DevOps engineers or full-stack architects working on AWS cost $55-75/hr. A 250-hour AWS build at $60/hr = $15,000 plus your actual AWS infrastructure costs (which we help optimize). We've deployed 200+ systems and track cost patterns.
We build it, document it, and hand it to your team or an ops partner. We don't do long-term managed hosting. We can offer a 48-hour audit of your existing AWS setup (no minimum contract) if you want optimization recommendations.
Reserved instances for predictable workloads, spot instances for batch jobs, S3 lifecycle policies for old data, and Lambda instead of always-on servers. We architect to be cost-aware from the start, not retrofit savings after launch.
AWS CDK only. Everything repeatable, versioned in git, and reviewable. No console clicking. Your team can redeploy or adjust infrastructure with confidence because it's code, not documentation someone forgot to update.
