Deploy to the Cloud

AWS

The recommended approach is to deploy APISIX with AWS CDK on AWS Fargate which helps you decouple the APISIX layer and the upstream layer on top of a fully-managed and secure serverless container compute environment with autoscaling capabilities.

See this guide by Pahud Hsieh and learn how to provision the recommended architecture 100% in AWS CDK.
