AWS Topics
The following are the things covered under AWS.
Amazon Web Services - Cloud Computing
With this cloud, we need not plan for servers and other IT infrastructure which takes up much of time in advance. Instead, these services can instantly spin up hundreds or thousands of servers in minutes and deliver results faster.
AWS - Management Console
AWS Management Console is a web application for managing Amazon Web Services. AWS Management Console consists of list of various services to choose from. It also provides all information related to our account like billing.
AWS - Elastic Compute Cloud
Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) is a web service interface that provides resizable compute capacity in the AWS cloud. It is designed for developers to have complete control over web-scaling and computing resources.
Amazon Web Services - Lambda
AWS Lambda is a responsive cloud service that inspects actions within the application and responds by deploying the user-defined codes, known as functions
Amazon Web Services - Amazon S3
Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) is a scalable, high-speed, low-cost web-based service designed for online backup and archiving of data and application programs. It allows to upload, store, and download any type of files up to 5 GB in size
Amazon Web Services - CloudFront
CloudFront is a CDN (Content Delivery Network). It retrieves data from Amazon S3 bucket and distributes it to multiple datacenter locations. It delivers the data through a network of data centers called edge locations.
