Tiivistelmä
This thesis aims to develop an N-tier web application consisting of a presentation tier, a business logic tier, and a database tier and design a cloud architecture to host the application. The primary focus of the cloud architecture is to ensure high availability and scalability, two critical attributes for web applications.
To achieve this goal, a thorough literature review on cloud architecture and software architecture patterns was conducted. The author also developed frontend and backend applications, which are components of the presentation and business logic tiers, respectively. Application development technologies selection was guided by reviewing theoretical frameworks on the use of react JavaScript library and spring boot framework. The developed application was then deployed on the selected public cloud provider.
The thesis employed software development, cloud architecture design, and deployment methods. The Deployed N-tier web application was tested and validated for scalability and availability quality attributes. The thesis is expected to contribute to the knowledge of designing scalable and highly available cloud architectures for N-tier web applications. The thesis can be extended in the future to include automation in the application deployment process to incorporate continuous development and continuous integration (CD/CI).
