GPSTEC302: SaaS Reference: Review of Real-World Patterns & Strategies

There is no single approach to building SaaS applications on AWS. Domain, compliance, performance, legacy considerations, and business forces all play a big role in shaping the architecture of your solutions. While there are many strategies for implementing SaaS on AWS, there are some common architectural patterns that are used to address the varying needs of SaaS providers. In this session, we review in detail a collection of SaaS reference architectures that represent a spectrum of approaches to addressing identity, onboarding, storage partitioning, tenant isolation, billing, deployment, regional distribution, and operational models. Our goal is to provide a menu of concrete solutions that can provide insights into how AWS constructs are leveraged to realize SaaS best practices on AWS.
