As web applications grow, scaling database performance becomes crucial. One effective strategy is to implement read-write splitting, where write operations (such as INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE) are directed to the primary database. At the same time, read operations (such as SELECT queries) are routed to replicas. This approach improves the efficiency of database interactions and enables better load balancing and high availability.
In this podcast, we will explore how to set up PostgreSQL read-write splitting using Docker to create a mock Aurora PostgreSQL cluster, HAProxy for load balancing, and SQLAlchemy in Python to manage read-write query separation.

AWS Lambda has revolutionized how developers build and deploy applications by introducing a serverless computing model. Managing infrastructure, scaling, and provisioning traditionally required significant effort and planning. With Lambda, these complexities are abstracted away, allowing developers to focus solely on writing code. Lambda automatically scales and executes applications in response to predefined events, making it an ideal solution for many use cases, from microservices to real-time data processing.

As businesses increasingly turn to static websites for simplicity, security, and performance, ensuring an automated and secure deployment process is paramount. GitOps—a model combining Git with operations—allows us to define infrastructure and deployment processes in code. Integrating GitHub Actions for Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) and leveraging Terraform with OpenID Connect (OIDC) for secure cloud authentication offers a streamlined, scalable solution. This podcast demonstrates how to securely deploy a static website on AWS using GitHub Actions, Terraform, and OIDC.
