Scalable and Secure Learning Platform Built on AWS by Primus
virtual training and the digital learning revolution are transforming how education is delivered and consumed globally. As more students embrace online courses and virtual training, edtech companies are experiencing surging demand for their platforms and services. However, supporting a seamless, highly available, and personalized user experience at scale requires robust and scalable cloud infrastructure.
Legacy on-premises systems can quickly become overwhelmed by rapid traffic spikes and struggle to keep up with evolving user expectations around performance, accessibility, and functionality. Edtech firms need the elasticity, content delivery capabilities, and advanced services that public cloud providers like AWS offer.
Recognizing this strategic imperative, Primus Learning – a pioneering global platform for online IT training courses – recently partnered with Primus Cloud Solutions to modernize their learning management system (LMS). The goal was to design and deploy their LMS on AWS Cloud, leveraging managed services to accelerate innovation while ensuring high availability, security, and cost optimization.
Managed Cloud Services for virtual training (EdTech)

Primus Learning offers online IT training courses to students worldwide. With rapid platform growth, they faced challenges managing student registrations, course content, tuition payments, and learning data.
To address this, Primus Cloud Solutions provides end-to-end managed cloud services tailored to Primus Learning’s requirements. Our cloud experts architected a high-performance, secure, and cost-efficient solution leveraging AWS Cloud services.
Cloud Deployment Architecture
The LMS platform utilized a modern tech stack deployed across AWS services:
- Backend: Node.js backend hosted on private EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer
- Frontend: Next.js frontend deployed as a static website on S3 with CloudFront for content delivery
- Database: Managed MongoDB database on AWS DocumentDB
- DevOps: Automated CI/CD pipeline via GitHub Actions
Optimized for Security, Cost & High Availability
Security was a key priority for hosting sensitive user data and edtech content. The team implemented AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF) to protect the frontend from common threats like SQLi and XSS.
To minimize costs, the static frontend was served directly from S3 instead of running web servers. The backend was configured for high availability using an EC2 Auto Scaling group across multiple Availability Zones.
Furthermore, AWS services like S3 cross-region replication provided disaster recovery capabilities to ensure business continuity.
Comprehensive Monitoring & Management
Primus solution included robust monitoring and maintenance of the entire cloud environment. AWS CloudWatch continuously tracked backend metrics and triggered alarms. Node.js processes were managed using PM2 for automated restarts.
Additionally, Primus Cloud Solutions handled database backups to AWS S3, OS patching, security updates, and more as part of the ongoing managed services.
Accelerating EdTech Innovation
Primus Learning’s new cloud LMS platform streamlined operations across student onboarding, learning content delivery, tuition management, and analytics. Their teams now had a reliable system to enroll new students quickly and scale education offerings seamlessly.
By partnering with Primus Cloud Solutions, Primus Learning could accelerate their edtech roadmap, confident that their backend systems were secure, available, and optimized for performance.
