Architecture Overview

Anivers utilizes a combination of AWS services to deliver a high-performance, reliable, and secure streaming experience. The primary components and services involved in the architecture include:

1. Amazon S3

   • Used for storing video files and other static assets.
   • Enables scalable storage with high availability and durability.

2. Amazon DynamoDB

   • A NoSQL database used for storing user data, metadata about the anime contents.
   • Provides fast and predictable performance with seamless scalability.

3. Amazon CloudFront

   • A content delivery network (CDN) used to distribute video content globally with low latency.
   • Ensures a smooth streaming experience by caching content at edge locations.

4. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud)

   • Hosts the application Frontend that run the core logic of the platform.

5. AWS Backup

   • Automates and centralizes data backup across AWS services.
   • Ensures data protection and compliance with backup policies.

6. AWS Lambda

   • Serverless computing service used for executing background tasks and processing events.
   • Handles tasks such as user authentication, video transcoding, and other asynchronous operations.

7. Amazon Cognito

   • Manages user authentication, authorization, and user management.
   • Provides secure sign-up and sign-in functionality along with user identity management.

8. Amazon API Gateway

   • Creates, publishes, maintains, monitors, and secures APIs at any scale.
   • Serves as the entry point for client requests, routing them to the appropriate backend services.

Key Features

• User Authentication and Management

  • Secure user sign-up and sign-in using Amazon Cognito.
  • Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for enhanced security. A - uthentication using OTP (One-Time Password) verification for additional security.

• Content Storage and Delivery

  • Video files stored in Amazon S3 for scalable and durable storage.
  • Amazon CloudFront used to deliver content globally with low latency.

• Scalable Backend

  • Application logic hosted on Amazon EC2 instances to handle dynamic content.
  • AWS Lambda functions for processing background tasks and asynchronous operations.

• Database and Caching

  • Amazon DynamoDB used for fast and scalable data storage.

• API Management

  • Amazon API Gateway to expose RESTful APIs for frontend-backend communication.
  • Ensures secure and scalable API interactions.

• Backup and Recovery

  • AWS Backup for automated and centralized backup management.
  • Regular backups to protect against data loss and ensure recovery.

• User Panels

  • User Panel:
    • Allows users to browse, search, and stream anime content.
  • Admin Panel:
    • Allows administrators to upload videos to Amazon S3.

• Searching Facility

  • Robust search functionality to help users quickly find their favorite anime shows.
  • Search based on various criteria such as title, genre, and release date.

Getting Started

To set up the Anivers platform locally or on your AWS account, follow these steps:

1. Clone the Repository:

git clone https://github.com/sneh2102/anivers.git
cd anivers

2. Configure AWS Credentials:

   • Ensure your AWS CLI is configured with the necessary credentials to access your AWS resources.

3. Add Backend Zips to S3:

   • Navigate to the Backend folder in the cloned repository.
   • Upload all the zip files to an S3 bucket.

     AddUserFunction:
   Type: AWS::Lambda::Function
   Properties:
     FunctionName: addUser
     Handler: index.handler
     Runtime: nodejs20.x
     Role: [Your_i_am_Role]
     Code:
       S3Bucket: [Bucket_Name]   \\Change to the bucket name that you have created
       S3Key: add_user.zip
   
   
   
   

4. Deploy the Infrastructure:

   • Upload the cloudformation.yaml file to AWS CloudFormation.
   • Follow the prompts in the AWS CloudFormation console to create the stack.

5. Completion:

   • Once CloudFormation has completed the stack creation, the Anivers platform is ready to use.
