Abstract: 
This study explores the design and implementation of a secure and high-performing e-commerce platform using public cloud infrastructure. The rising popularity of e-commerce has emphasized the need for scalable, cost-efficient, and secure platforms that can meet the dynamic needs of users. Cloud computing provides the necessary resources for building such platforms, but security and performance remain critical concerns. This paper examines strategies for securing an e-commerce platform hosted on a public cloud while optimizing for performance. Data collection, instrumentations, and analysis were employed to identify key factors influencing the security and performance of the platform. The results however shows a multi-layered security architecture, along with an elastic cloud infrastructure, can significantly enhance platform performance. Recommendations are provided for future research and practical implementation.
