I work as a senior software developer at a startup. So naturally our complete infrastructure is on a cloud provider, which in our case is AWS.

As a software developer it’s important to know about different cloud computing services which are needed to build distributed, highly scalable applications.

We use PostgreSQL for all of our main databases and RedShift to keep the data needed for analytics and reporting.

When your services are getting high traffic you can increase the number of cluster instances and service tasks.
