How We Built a Serverless E-Commerce Website on AWS to Combat COVID-19

Lesson learned from manufacturing a physical product to building a scalable e-commerce platform on AWS In a phone conversation in March 2020, Olalekan Elesin informed me of an idea he thought about while doing his regular grocery shopping at DM Drogrie. The idea is centered on a bracelet like your typical watch that dispenses Sanitizer. Before this time, Sanitizer comes packaged in bottles and cans of different sizes and kinds.

Some are mounted on walls, and some are portable enough to be carried around in handbags. But not portable enough to be worn on the wrist. Having spent years building scalable applications and data applications at various startups, we understood that every idea must be validated.

We have to know it’s an idea that people want and are willing to pay for. As for us, this means doing some market research.
