Secure and Scalable Cloud Architecture for Banking Transactions: An AWS-Based Multi-AZ Deployment with Compliance and Monitoring

Abstract

In the rapidly evolving landscape of financial technology, the need for secure, scalable, and compliant cloud architectures for banking transactions is more critical than ever. This paper presents a comprehensive AWS-based multi-AZ (Availability Zone) deployment model designed to meet the stringent requirements of the banking industry. We explore the architectural design, security measures, compliance strategies, and monitoring mechanisms that ensure the robustness and reliability of the system. The paper also includes a detailed algorithm for transaction processing and a comparative analysis of performance metrics. The proposed architecture not only enhances the security and scalability of banking transactions but also ensures compliance with regulatory standards, thereby fostering trust and confidence among customers and regulatory bodies
