When I build a production-grade serverless web app on AWS, I try to optimize for two things at the same time: delivery speed and operational safety . The stack I come back to most often is: CloudFront for global edge delivery S3 for static web assets API Gateway for API ingress Lambda for business logic DynamoDB for low-latency persistence Cognito for authentication AWS WAF for edge/API protection This stack is great because it scales well, keeps infrastructure relatively lean, and supports strong separation between frontend, API, and data concerns. The catch is that “production-grade” requires more than just wiring services together. It requires clear decisions around caching, auth boundaries, rate limiting, and deployment rollback behavior.…
