AWS. Here are some of the common concepts you will encounter. The Amazon web services (AWS) create a flexible
path for businesses who want adopt modern conditions.
1. S3: Scalable cloud storage – Static assets live here
2. EC2: Virtual cloud servers – Loads run here
3. RDS: Managed relational database service – data is stored here
4. ROUTE53: Scalable DNS and domain name registration
5. VPC: Assists to maintain isolated cloud resources
6. CLOUDFRONT: Worldwide content delivery network
7. DYNAMODB: Managed no-SQL database
8. CLOUDWATCH: Helps to monitor resources and applications
ELASTIC IP
Elastic IP is a public IP that can be linked to EC2 instances. If a particular EC2 instance is terminated, it stays put so
that it can be remapped to associate with an other instance .
CLOUDWATCH
This is a monitoring service for other AWS services.
AUTOSCALING GROUP
Automatically shrinks or expands a pool of instances based on set rules
LOAD BALANCER
A routing device that maintains a consistent DNS entry and balances requests to multiple instances.
AVAILABILITY OF AWS
Amazon provides AWS from various data centers spread across zones named as availability zones (AZ) spread across
the world.
Amazon Elastic Block Store provides block level storage volumes for persistent data storage to be used with EC2,
while Amazon Elastic File System offers managed cloud file storage.
Businesses can choose one or more AZs either for compliance issues, or to be able to reach their customers easily.
An AWS customer can put up VMs and replicate data in different AZs in order to achieve high reliable infrastructure
capable of withstanding disasters or failures of an individual server or even an entire data center.
STORAGE
Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) provides scalable storage for data backup, archiving and analytics.
Amazon Elastic Block Store provides block level storage volumes for persistent data storage to be used with EC2,
while Amazon Elastic File System offers managed cloud file storage.
A client can choose to migrate data to the cloud via storage transport devices such as AWS snowmobile, or AWS
storage gateway to enable access cloud data.
