This webinar will cover the basics of getting started with AWS. After a brief overview, this session will dive into core AWS services with live demonstrations of how to set up and utilize compute, storage, and other services. The focus will be on the ease of use and the ability to clone environments that largest customers are running to highlight AWS’ versatility and ease of use as a cloud platform.

than companies can
achieve themselves
Elastic capacity
No need to guess

14. EC2
Virtual servers in the cloud
Elastic Compute
Cloud
• Resizable compute capacity in 34 different instance types
• Reduces the time required to obtain and boot new server instances to minutes
or seconds
• Scale capacity as your computing requirements change
• Pay only for capacity that you actually use
• Choose Linux or Windows
• Deploy across Regions and Availability Zones for reliability
• Support for virtual network interfaces that can be attached to EC2 instances in
your VPC

17. Amazon Machine Image
• Building blocks of EC2 instances
• An AMI is like a template of a computer's root volume
• Can be public or private and shared with other accounts
• Create hardened or gold “Images” of your EC2 infrastructure
• Copy AMIs between regions

18. Elastic Block Storage (EBS)
• Use for persistent storage from 1GB – 1TB
• Can use to create RAID configuration for a server
• Off-instance block storage that persists independently
• Storage volumes for use with Amazon EC2 instances – create, attach, backup,
restore and delete
• Can be attached to a running Amazon EC2 instance and exposed as a block
device for raw or formatted (file system) access
• Snapshots are durably saved to S3
• Ideal use cases:
• OS Boot device / root file system; secondary volumes/file systems
• Typical basis for database storage
• Raw block devices for RAID, some databases
• Available in both standard and provisioned IOPS (up to 4k IOPS)

19. Auto Scaling
• Client Defined Business Rules
• Scale your Amazon EC2 capacity automatically once you define the conditions
(may be 1000’s of servers)
• Can scale up just a little…doesn’t need to be massive number of servers (may
be simply 2 servers)
• Well suited for applications that experience variability in usage
• Set minimum and maximum scaling policies
• Alternate Use is for Fault Tolerance

20. Elastic Load
Balancing
• Supports the routing and load balancing of HTTP, HTTPS and generic TCP
traffic to EC2 instances
• Supports SSL termination and Proxy protocol
• Supports health checks to ensure detect and remove failing instances
• Dynamically grows and shrinks required resources based on traffic
• Seamlessly integrates with Auto-scaling to add and remove instances based
on scaling activities
• Single CNAME provides stable entry point for DNS configuration
• Supports internal load balancing within a VPC

22. Simple Storage
Service
• A “Bucket” is equivalent to a “folder”
• Able to store unlimited number of Objects in a Bucket
• Objects from 1B-5 TB; no per bucket size limit
• Highly available storage for the Internet (object store)
• HTTP/S endpoint to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from
anywhere on the web
• Highly scalable, reliable, fast, and inexpensive
• Annual durability of 99.999999999%
• Designed for 99.99% availability
• Holds trillions of objects
• Peak requests 1.5 Million per second
