This thesis consists in an analysis of a project developed in collaboration with Akka Technologies Company. The implemented software is a back-end service built with the support of Amazon Web Services technology, which is the leading cloud provider service. The purpose of this work is to review the best strategies and technologies used during the development of the project. However, the thesis can’t enter either the specifics code details or its future applications due to the customer required secrecy. During the implementation of the project, the first decision taken is to employ the cloud to host the architecture in order to lower the cost, improve the scalability and reliability.
