The Serverless Image Resizer Service is an advanced cloud computing project that combines Event triggers and Monitoring and logs, built with S3. The project follows a cloud-native architecture where resources are provisioned, scaled, and managed as code, making it reliable, cost-effective, and easy to reproduce. It showcases professional cloud engineering techniques while delivering a complete, demo-ready platform.
Managing this workload on traditional infrastructure is slow, expensive, and hard to scale. Without a cloud platform built on Monitoring and logs and S3, there is no automated, resilient, and pay-per-use way to run the service reliably for growing demand.
This project applies advanced cloud engineering practices through Event triggers, orchestrated with S3 and Monitoring and logs. The system is designed for automation, observability, and cost control, with security and resilience built in. It delivers consistent, scalable results and can be extended to additional cloud services and regions.

Cloud-native system with Event triggers and Monitoring and logs
Automated provisioning and scaling on demand
Observability with metrics, logs, and alerts
Security controls, encryption, and access management
Reusable cloud modules for related features
Cost-aware, documented, maintainable cloud architecture
The system follows a cloud-native architecture: the compute layer runs Event triggers; the orchestration and logic layer uses S3 and Monitoring and logs; and the data and storage layer persists state via Function handlers. Shared IaC, security, and observability modules support all layers, keeping the platform automated, resilient, and easy to extend.
