An entrepreneur rebuilt a natural skin clinic's website on AWS for a fraction of the cost of a standard AI app builder. The new site runs for under $5 a month, features a fully automated pipeline, and is designed to meet the AWS Well-Architected Framework's six pillars. It includes 20+ pages, condition guides, a blog, a free-guide signup, a booking system, and payments—all with SEO-friendly URLs.
The website also has a password-protected admin editor, allowing the wife to manage content without the entrepreneur's intervention. The stack comprises Astro static site, S3 + CloudFront, API Gateway + Lambda (Node 22 on Graviton), DynamoDB, EventBridge + SQS, Cognito, and Route 53. All infrastructure changes are automated through AWS CDK in TypeScript, and security is prioritized from the outset, employing various measures such as HTTPS redirection, HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options DENY, and encrypted DynamoDB with point-in-time recovery and deletion protection.
