Backend with JWT authorization

I developed a robust serverless backend infrastructure using AWS CDK. This project integrates external webhooks from Clerk for seamless synchronization of user data, including:

  • Creation
  • Modification
  • Deletion

Key Features

  • Secure JWT Authentication:
  • Implemented JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication with AWS API Gateway.
  • Ensures safe and reliable data exchange between Prime.ai’s frontend and backend systems.

By leveraging JWT tokens, we achieved a secure and efficient method for authenticating users and authorizing access to our services.

  • Automated Data Synchronization:
  • Webhooks from Clerk automate data updates.
  • Real-time synchronization without manual intervention ensures our database remains accurate.

Any changes made to user data are instantly reflected in our database.

  • Simplified Infrastructure Management:
  • Utilizing AWS CDK allows for easy scalability and robust security measures.
  • Maintains a serverless architecture, reducing operational overhead.
