In this episode of Running in Production, Charley Stran goes over building the developer.va.gov API with Ruby on Rails and React. It’s running on 10+ auto scaling EC2 instances on AWS GovCloud and has been since mid-2018.
There’s around 140,000+ lines of code and ~20 developers. We covered what it’s like working on government contracts, how AWS GovCloud is different than the regular AWS platform, the code base being open source, code reviews and a whole lot more.
