Aws Solution Architect

This one helps you design AWS architectures for startups with a serverless-first approach. It'll generate CloudFormation templates, suggest patterns like Lambda + API Gateway + DynamoDB stacks, and run cost optimization analysis to find savings. The workflow is practical: feed it requirements (scale, budget, compliance needs), get a pattern recommendation, then export IaC ready to deploy. Includes specific tools for serverless stack generation and cost analysis. Best for MVP to mid-scale SaaS builds where you want opinionated architecture decisions and working templates fast. Won't help much with complex enterprise migrations or multi-account orchestration, but solid for the zero-to-production path.

AWS Solution Architect

Design scalable, cost-effective AWS architectures for startups with infrastructure-as-code templates — recommend the right pattern, generate CloudFormation/CDK/Terraform, and optimize spend.

Core Capabilities

Architecture design — recommend serverless, three-tier, microservices, data-pipeline, GraphQL, IoT, or multi-region patterns from app type, scale, budget, and compliance needs.
IaC generation — produce production-ready CloudFormation (SAM), CDK (TypeScript), and Terraform (HCL) with API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB, Cognito, IAM least-privilege, and CloudWatch.
Cost optimization — analyze inventory for idle resources, right-sizing, Savings Plans, storage tiering, and NAT Gateway alternatives with prioritized savings.
Service selection — decision matrices for compute, database, storage, networking, and security.
Operational excellence — monitoring, alarming, disaster recovery (RTO/RPO), and security hardening.
