AWS: the right architecture from over 200 services
We design and operate AWS architectures for commerce, CMS, and DXP, tailored to your load profiles and budget. You get operation, monitoring, and cost control from a team that also understands the application behind it.
The world’s largest cloud needs the right architect
AWS offers over 200 services. The challenge is not in the offering, but in the right selection. Which services fit your commerce platform? How does the architecture scale during traffic peaks? And how do you keep costs under control as the business grows?
synaigy designs and operates AWS architectures for commerce, CMS, and DXP. From EC2 and EKS to Lambda and S3 to CloudFront and RDS. Every service is tailored to your application case. With DevOps, 24/7 monitoring, and cost optimization, we ensure your platform runs efficiently, securely, and economically.
LET'S TALK
There is almost always room to reduce your AWS bill
We go through your instance types, reservations, and load profiles in 30 minutes and identify items that can be reduced without losing performance. You get the assessment before the next bill surprises you.
HIGHLIGHTS
What makes a well-built AWS environment in everyday life
Not every AWS service fits every platform. These five points determine how stable your operation runs and how high your cloud bill is at the end of the month.
Scaling without limits
Auto-scaling, elastic load balancing, and global availability automatically manage load spikes. In quiet times, the environment scales down again, so you don’t pay for reserve capacity.
Managed AWS operation
Monitoring, incident management, and performance optimization run around the clock with us. You can focus on your business instead of observing infrastructure.
Cost under control
With reserved and spot instances, right-sizing, and FinOps analyses, we keep your cloud bill in check. You pay for what you actually need, and see at any time what for.
Serverless and containers
Lambda handles event-driven workloads, EKS runs containerized microservices. This way, each requirement of your platform gets the right operational form.
Multi-cloud flexibility
AWS can be operated as part of a multi-cloud strategy alongside Azure and OVHcloud. We select the right provider per workload and connect them across cloud boundaries.

What we take over in your AWS project
AWS provides the building blocks. We decide with you which ones you need, set up the environment reproducibly, and keep it stable and affordable in operation.
Assessment and target architecture
We assess your requirements and an existing setup along the Well-Architected Framework. The result is a target architecture with the services you really need.
Migration from a system to AWS
We migrate your platform from your data center or another cloud to AWS. The transition proceeds with defined fallback scenarios to ensure business continuity.
Infrastructure as code and CI/CD
We describe your infrastructure as code and build CI/CD pipelines to it. This allows environments to be reproduced instead of being rebuilt manually.
Security and compliance
We set up permissions, network segregation, and protection against attacks precisely, from IAM to VPC to WAF. This covers security requirements and compliance obligations.
FinOps and cost control
We regularly analyze how your budget is spent and adjust instance types and reservations. This results in savings that are permanent, not just one-off.
24/7 operation and monitoring
We operate your environment around the clock with monitoring, alerting, and incident management. Performance tuning and scaling adjustments for campaigns are integral parts.
Your path to AWS cloud architecture
From requirement analysis to continuous managed operation. Four phases that ensure your AWS infrastructure is tailored for commerce performance and economy.
AWS assessment & architecture review
We analyze your platform requirements and check existing AWS setups according to the Well-Architected Framework. From this, a target architecture emerges with the suitable AWS services for your commerce workload.
Cloud architecture & service selection
We design the AWS architecture: compute (EC2, EKS, Lambda), storage (S3, EBS), databases (RDS, DynamoDB), network (CloudFront, VPC), and security. Tailored to your commerce, CMS, or DXP platform.
Migration & implementation
We migrate your platform to AWS. From on-premise, from other clouds, or for new projects. With infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation), CI/CD pipelines, and defined rollback scenarios.
Managed operations & cost optimization
24/7 monitoring, proactive incident management, performance tuning, and FinOps. Regular cost reviews, reserved instance planning, and scaling adjustments for traffic peaks.

KNOWLEDGE TO GO
Practical knowledge on cloud architecture and operation
A contribution from our own operational practice and one directly from AWS. Both show which decisions govern availability and control in the cloud.
Those who only operate servers see CPU and memory. Those who operate commerce see shopping carts, campaigns, and revenue. With this perspective, we build AWS environments, and that's why we talk about costs not just when the bill surprises.
Frequently asked questions about AWS
AWS offers the broadest service portfolio, global availability, and proven scalability. For commerce platforms, this means: auto-scaling during traffic peaks, fast load times through CloudFront, and high availability for business-critical applications.
For Shopware, VTEX, Intershop, Emporix, Storyblok, and other commerce, CMS, and DXP platforms. The AWS architecture is tailored to the specific requirements of each platform.
With FinOps analyses, Reserved Instances, Spot Instances, Right-Sizing, and regular cost reviews. We continuously optimize the cost structure without compromising performance.
synaigy combines AWS operations with commerce expertise, data analytics, and UX design. Other AWS partners understand infrastructure, synaigy also understands the business behind it: conversion, revenue, and customer experience.
Yes. synaigy operates platforms on AWS, Azure, and OVHcloud. Workloads are distributed to the optimal provider. The multi-cloud strategy is aligned with compliance, cost, and performance requirements.
EC2 and EKS for compute, S3 for storage, RDS and DynamoDB for databases, CloudFront as CDN, Lambda for serverless workloads, VPC for network isolation, and CloudWatch for monitoring. The selection depends on the use case.
In four phases: assessment and architecture review, target architecture and service selection, migration with Infrastructure as Code and rollback scenarios, then managed operations with 24/7 monitoring and cost optimization.
