Common Questions
Technical and business considerations for AWS projects.
Is AWS too expensive for startups?
Not necessarily. We utilize AWS's Free Tier and 'Serverless' architectures (like Lambda) to keep costs near zero for startups, scaling only as they grow.
What is a 'Multi-AZ' deployment and why is it standard at SKN IT?
Multi-AZ (Availability Zone) means your application runs in multiple physically separate data centers simultaneously. If one center fails, your site stays online, ensuring the high availability our clients expect.
How do we prevent 'vendor lock-in' on AWS?
We use 'Infrastructure as Code' (Terraform) and containerization (Docker). This ensures that while we leverage AWS's power, your application logic and infrastructure definitions remain portable and documented.
How does the 'Shared Responsibility Model' work?
AWS manages the security of the cloud (hardware/global network), while SKN IT manages security 'in' the cloud (your apps, data, and configurations). We provide full-stack security audits to satisfy both responsibilities.
