AWS-hosted Virtual Classroom and Learning Platform

Category: AWS Cloud Practitioner

Skills Required: Core Python, AWS, Python -flask

Project Description:
In the evolving digital education landscape, creating an efficient, scalable, and
secure virtual learning environment is essential. The "AWS-hosted Virtual Classroom and
Learning Platform" project addresses this need by developing a cloud-native platform that
integrates key AWS services to deliver a seamless educational experience. The platform
leverages Flask for backend development and is hosted on AWS EC2, ensuring customizable
and scalable deployment. Amazon S3 is used to store course content and data, while
Amazon RDS (MySQL) is employed to manage user registration, login data, and other
relevant information.
Key Features;
➢ Scalable Infrastructure: AWS automatically handles increasing users.
➢ Secure Data Management: S3 and RDS ensure user data and course content are secure.
➢ User-Friendly Design: The platform provides an easy-to-use interface for students and educators.

Challenges;
➢ AWS Service Configuration: Setting up S3, RDS, and EC2 for the first time was complex and
required thorough research and understanding of AWS's documentation.
➢ Flask-AWS Integration: Ensuring seamless integration between the Flask application and AWS
services, particularly managing secure data storage and transfer.
➢ Security Management: Protecting sensitive user data while implementing secure login and
data encryption protocols to prevent breaches.
➢ Debugging and Testing: Troubleshooting errors during development and deployment required
meticulous testing and analyzing AWS logs for issue resolution.

Create an AWS Account

➢ Begin by creating an AWS account, and providing your personal and payment information.
➢ Complete the verification process to ensure the security of your AWS account.
➢ Navigate the intuitive AWS Management Console to familiarize yourself with the available
services and features.

Create an S3 Bucket and Upload Data
➢ Provision a secure and scalable S3 bucket to store your application data.
➢ Seamlessly transfer your data to the S3 bucket, ensuring it's readily available for your application.
➢ Configure appropriate permissions and policies to control your S3 bucket and data access.

Create an RDS Instance
➢ Select the appropriate database engine, MySQL, based on your application's requirements.
➢ Customize the RDS instance size, storage, and other settings to ensure optimal performance and scalability.
➢ Implement robust security measures, including network access control and encryption, to protect your data.
➢ Set up automated backups and disaster recovery mechanisms to safeguard your data.

Develop the Flask Application

Action:

1. Create Flask App:


• Develop app.py with routes for registration,
login, and content.
• Create supporting HTML files
(home.html, login.html, register.html, content.
html).
• Add CSS styling using Bootstrap and custom
styles.

2. Test Locally: Fig 5: Create a Project directory


• Run the Flask application locally to ensure
functionality.

Upload to GitHub
Action:
➢ Create a new repository on GitHub.
➢ Commit your project files and push them to the repository.

Conclusion

Summary: The project successfully integrates Flask with AWS services to create a scalable and
secure virtual classroom platform. Users can register, log in, and access course materials hosted on
S3, with data managed in RDS and the application deployed on EC2. The solution leverages AWS's
robust infrastructure to deliver a seamless educational experience.
