Abstract

The rapid digital transformation of the education sector has accelerated the shift toward scalable and technology-driven online learning ecosystems. This project presents a comprehensive Cloud-Based Educational Platform deployed on Amazon Web Services (AWS), delivering a secure, elastic, and highly available infrastructure tailored for modern academic environments. The proposed system facilitates efficient course creation, structuring, and administration, enabling educators to design interactive learning modules and systematically monitor student progress. Core functionalities include user-friendly content authoring tools, real-time collaborative features, automated assessment mechanisms, and advanced performance analytics for data-driven academic decision-making. By leveraging AWS cloud services, the platform ensures high availability, dynamic resource scaling, fault tolerance, and robust data protection through secure identity and access management mechanisms. The cloud-native architecture enhances operational efficiency while maintaining reliability and performance. Overall, the integration of AWS infrastructure establishes a resilient, scalable, and interactive digital learning environment that supports effective engagement for both educators and learners.
