AWS (Amazon Web Services)
• Cloud Computing Defined
• Benefits of Cloud Computing
• Cloud Computing Models
• AWS History
• AWS Platform
• AWS Products Overview
• AWS Security and Compliance
• Regions and Availability
AWS Benefits
• Reduced:
- Hardware cost
- Operational cost
- Deployment cost
• Increased:
- Resiliency
- Performance
- Capacity
The Cloud
• Internet-based solution
• Operates on servers
• Limited knowledge of location or server
hardware capabilities
Origins of the Cloud
• Engineers used a cloud icon to represent
networks they didn’t manage
• The cloud indicated, “We’re connected to it, but
we don’t manage it or care about the details of
how it works.”
Cloud Examples
• Dropbox
• Google
• Microsoft Azure
• Amazon Web Services

Cloud Computing Models
Full Cloud Deployment
• All components in the cloud
- Database
- Processing
- Storage
- Application logic
• Nothing on premises
Hybrid Deployment
• Some resources are internal, others are in the
cloud
- Processing
- Databases
- Storage
- Application logic
Cloud Service Models
• Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
- Entire infrastructure in the cloud
- Platforms and software run on others’ infrastructure
- You must manage it all
• Platform as a Service (PaaS)
- You don’t manage the infrastructure
- Applications are deployed on platforms
• Software as a Service (SaaS)
- Someone else develops the software
- You use it from the cloud
