Amazon Web Services as part of Contemi IT architecture

We leverage AWS for workloads like Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Elasticsearch service, Elastic Container Service (ECS), Route 53, Cognito, API Gateway, Aurora Serverless, ElasticCache, Document DB, Amazon SNS, Amazon SQS, and Amazon CloudWatch.

We use AWS Transfer Family to transfer client data into and out of AWS and Simple Email Service (SES) for sending emails and Elastic File System (EFS) and S3 for storage. The AWS backup is used for backing up across the services we use.
