Aim of the Project 

The goal of this project is to set up a multi-tier architecture for the VRProfile application in a 

local environment using Vagrant and VirtualBox. This setup simulates a production-like 

environment where different services work together to ensure scalability, reliability, and 

performance. 


Scenario & Use Case 

● The VRProfile application is a web-based system that requires multiple services to 

function properly. 


● Each service is deployed on a separate virtual machine (VM) to mirror real-world 

deployments. 


● This multi-tier architecture ensures modularity, scalability, and fault isolation. 


Why Are We Setting Up This Project? 

● To create a local development & testing environment before deploying to production. 


● To learn and practice infrastructure automation using Vagrant. 


● To test and optimize application performance by setting up a distributed service 

architecture. 


● To simulate a production environment for DevOps CI/CD pipeline testing.


Multi-Tier Architecture Breakdown 

The application is structured into five key services, each running on separate VMs: 



1. Database Tier: MySQL (MariaDB) → Stores user and application data. 


2. Cache Tier: Memcached → Caches database queries for better performance. 


3. Message Queue Tier: RabbitMQ → Handles asynchronous messaging. 


4. Application Tier: Tomcat → Runs the Java-based backend application. 


5. Web Tier: Nginx → Acts as a reverse proxy and serves web requests.
