Problem

Explain different AWS architectural patterns, including load balancers, API gateways, virtualization, containers, storage, databases, and CAP theorem trade-offs.

Asked in the technical, SA-led stage of the loop. Two interviewers were Solutions Architects who explored these cloud architecture topics without coding.

Address when to use Amazon Elastic Load Balancing, Amazon API Gateway, Amazon EC2, Amazon ECS or Amazon EKS, Amazon S3, and AWS database services. Compare the availability, consistency, scalability, and operational trade-offs of the alternatives.
