AWS Infrastructure Architecture Overview
Architectural overview of Oxy deployment options using AWS infrastructure including EC2 and ECS patterns
This document provides an architectural overview of the Oxy deployment options using AWS infrastructure. We support two primary deployment patterns: EC2-based and ECS-based deployments.
High-Level Architecture
With AWS Cognito Authentication
With Built-in Authentication (Simplified)
Deployment Architecture Options
Oxy supports two primary AWS deployment patterns, each optimized for different use cases:EC2 Deployment
Direct virtual machine deployment offering simplicity and full control.- Best for: Development, small teams, direct server control
- Key benefits: Simple setup, SSH access, cost-effective for steady workloads
- Architecture: Single instance with EBS storage
ECS Deployment
Container-based deployment with automatic scaling and high availability.- Best for: Production environments, scalable applications, enterprise deployments
- Key benefits: Auto-scaling, multi-AZ availability, managed infrastructure
- Architecture: Fargate containers with EFS shared storage

Deployment Comparison
| Feature | EC2 Deployment | ECS Deployment |
|---|---|---|
| Complexity | Low | Medium |
| Scalability | Manual | Automatic |
| Availability | Single AZ | Multi-AZ |
| Storage | EBS (10GB) | EFS (Shared) |
| Cost | Fixed instance cost | Pay per use |
| Maintenance | Manual updates | Managed by AWS |
| Debugging | SSH access | CloudWatch logs |
| Ideal for | Development, Small teams | Production, Large teams |
