Real-Time Fault Tolerance Mechanisms in Communication Platforms Using AWS Services

Authors/Creators

Description

In real-time communication systems, which must have minimal latency and great availability to preserve a perfect user experience, fault tolerance is essentially indispensable. On such platforms, system failures—such as network interruptions or service unavailability—may greatly affect user happiness and cause disturbance of communication. This paper explores fault tolerance methods enabled on real-time communication platforms with AWS capabilities. By use of retry rules, multi-region deployments, circuit breakers, and event-driven architectures, AWS services provide robust means of control over failures. Key services AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, Amazon S3, and CloudWatch help one to reach fault isolation, failover recovery, and system resilience. Aiming for cost-performance trade-offs, the study of various approaches shows how well they reduce downtime, maintain performance, and enable scalability. This work illustrates how cloud-native technologies could improve fault tolerance in real-time systems, therefore providing a paradigm for developing powerful communication platforms.
