6. Elastic Compute Cloud, EC2 Web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale cloud computing easier for developers. • Elastic web-scale computing • Completely controlled • Flexible cloud hosting services • Integrated • Reliable (SLA 99.99%) • Secure • Inexpensive • Easy to start • Used by: Netflix, Airbnb, Expedia
7. EC2 Tips • Know your requirements • Start small • Know the prices: https://www.ec2instances.info/ • Reserve if possible (up to 75% save) • Use Spot fleets (up to 10% save) • Turn off when unused: see https://app.skeddly.com • Use linux • Build horizontally scalable apps
8. Compute: Lambda Lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers. You pay only for the compute time you consume - there is no charge when your code is not running. • No servers to manage • Continuous scaling • Subsecond metering (charged for every 100ms) • Triggers • Use cases: ETL, Real-time stream processing, Data processing in general • Used by The CocaCola Company • Tip: check costs ($0.20 per 1M requests + memory usage)
9. Storage: Simple Storage Service (S3) and Glacier Object storage service • Industry-leading performance, scalability, availability, and durability (11 9's) • Wide range of cost-effective storage classes • Unmatched security, compliance, and audit capabilities • Management tools for granular data control • Query-in-place services for analytics (Athena, Redshift Spectrum, S3 Select) • Most supported cloud storage service • Tip: Use Glacier for infrequently accessed objects
10. Storage: Elastic Block Store (EBS) Easy to use, high performance block storage service designed for use with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) • Performance for any workload • Easy to use • Highly available and durable (5 9's) • Virtually unlimited scale • Secure • Cost-effective (4 types: 2 SSD, 2 HDD) • Tips: Start small, use snapshots if necessary, add volumes when necessary
11. Analytics: Athena, ES Service, CloudSearch • Athena: Serverless and interactive query service that makes it easy to analyze data in Amazon S3 using standard SQL. (Supports CSV, JSON, ORC, Avro, and Parquet). • Elasticsearch Service: Fully managed service that makes it easy for you to deploy, secure, and operate Elasticsearch at scale with zero down time. • CloudSearch: Managed service in the AWS Cloud that makes it simple and cost-effective to set up, manage, and scale a search solution for your website or application • Great comparison here: https://cloudacademy.com/blog/elasticsearch-vs-cloudsearch/
12. Application Integration: SQS Simple Queue Service: Fully managed message queuing service that enables you to decouple and scale microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications. • Eliminate administrative overhead • Reliably deliver messages • Keep sensitive data secure • Scale elastically and cost-effectively • FIFO option • Used by NASA, BMW
13. SQS Tips Keep in mind limitations: • Max retention period: 14 days • Max num messages on flight: 120000 • Max visibility timeout: 12h • Max message size: 256kb Know the costs
14. Application Integration: SNS Simple Notification Service: Highly available, durable, secure, fully managed pub/sub messaging service that enables you to decouple microservices, distributed systems, and serverless applications • Reliably deliver messages with durability • Automatically scale your workload • Simplify your architecture with Message Filtering • Keep messages private and secure
15. Application Integration: MQ Managed message broker service for Apache ActiveMQ that makes it easy to set up and operate message brokers in the cloud. • Fully managed • Easy migration (supports JMS, NMS, AMQP, STOMP, MQTT) • Available and durable • Low latency
16. Database: RDS, DynamoDB, RedShift • RDS (Relational Database Service) makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. Supports Aurora, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDb, Oracle, SQL Server. (Used by Netflix, Expedia, Illumina) • DynamoDB: Key-value and document database that delivers single-digit millisecond performance at any scale. (Used by Snapchat, Netflix, Lyft) • RedShift: Fully managed, petabyte-scale data warehouse service in the cloud. (Used by lyft, McDonalds, Dowjones)
17. Database Tips KNOW YOUR OPTIONS
18. Machine Learning • Translate: Neural machine translation service that delivers fast, high-quality, and affordable language translation. • Rekognition: Easily add intelligent image and video analysis to your applications. • Transcribe: Automatic speech recognition (ASR) service that makes it easy for developers to add speech-to-text capability to their applications
19. Management & Governance • VPC (Virtual Private Cloud): Provision a logically isolated section of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud where you can launch AWS resources in a virtual network that you define. • Route 53: Highly available and scalable cloud Domain Name System (DNS) web service. • ELB (Elastic Load Balancing): Automatically distributes incoming application traffic across multiple targets, such as Amazon EC2 instances, containers, IP addresses, and Lambda functions.
20. Management & Governance • IAM (Identity and Access Management): Securely manage access to AWS services and resources. • CloudWatch: Observability of your AWS resources and applications on AWS and on-premises. • Auto Scaling: Monitors your applications and automatically adjusts capacity to maintain steady, predictable performance at the lowest possible cost. (Available for EC2, DynamoDB and Aurora)
21. Certifications Validate technical skills and expertise with an industry-recognized credential and grow your career. https://aws.amazon.com/certification/
22. ¿Questions? • If availability is a concern, should I use AWS? ◦ Absolutely, you will hardly guarantee the same availability. You should also use back ups / snapshots, etc depending on your needs. • How much do certifications cost? ◦ The Cloud Practitioner exam is 100 USD. Associate-level exams are 150 USD. Professional-level and Specialty exams are 300 USD.
