Introduction to Amazon Web Services

Overview of AWS Services

What is Cloud Computing?

Cloud Computing, by definition, refers to ondemand delivery of IT resources and applications

via the Internet with pay-as-you-go pricing

Six Benefits of Cloud Computing

Trade capital expense for variable expense
Instead of having to invest heavily in data centers and
servers before you know how youre going to use
them, you can only pay when you consume
computing resources, and only pay for how much you
consume

Six Benefits of Cloud Computing

Benefit from massive economies of scale
By using cloud computing, you can achieve a lower
variable cost than you can get on your own
Because usage from hundreds of thousands of
customers are aggregated in the cloud, providers
such as Amazon Web Services can achieve higher
economies of scale which translates into lower pay as
you go prices

Six Benefits of Cloud Computing

Stop guessing capacity
Eliminate guessing on your infrastructure capacity needs
When you make a capacity decision prior to deploying an
application, you often either end up sitting on expensive
idle resources or dealing with limited capacity
With Cloud Computing, these problems go away
You can access as much or as little as you need, and scale
up and down as required with only a few minutes notice

Six Benefits of Cloud Computing

Increase speed and agility
In a cloud computing environment, new IT resources
are only ever a click away, which means you reduce
the time it takes to make those resources available to
your developers from weeks to just minutes
This results in a dramatic increase in agility for the
organization, since the cost and time it takes to
experiment and develop is significantly lower

Six Benefits of Cloud Computing

Stop spending money on running and maintaining
datacenters
Focus on projects that differentiate your business, not
the infrastructure
Cloud computing lets you focus on your own
customers, rather than on the heavy lifting of racking,
stacking and powering servers

Six Benefits of Cloud Computing

Go global in minutes
Easily deploy your application in multiple regions
around the world with just a few clicks
This means you can provide a lower latency and
better experience for your customers simply and at
minimal cost

AWS Global Infrastructure

Regions
Geographic locations that contain multiple data
centers called Availability Zones
Each region is completely independent

AWS Global Infrastructure

Today we have 12 AWS Regions

North America (4)

Europe (2)
Asia Pacific (5)
South America (1)

AWS Global Infrastructure

Availability Zones (AZs)
Isolated datacenters that are connected to each other
over low-latency links within a region

AWS Global Infrastructure

32 Availability Zones (AZs)
Example
US East (N. Virginia)

us-east-1a
us-east-1b
us-east-1c
us-east-1d

AWS Edge Locations
Local points-of-presence commonly supporting AWS
services like Amazon Route 53 and Amazon
CloudFront

AWS Shared Responsibility Model

It is important for customers to understand and
distinguish between:
Security measures that the cloud service provider (AWS)
implements and operates security of the cloud
Security measures that the customer implements and
operates, related to the security of the customer content
and applications that make use of AWS services
security in the cloud

AWS Shared Responsibility Model

While AWS manages security of the cloud, security
in the cloud is the responsibility of the customer
Customers retain control of what security they
choose to implement to protect there own content,
platform, applications, systems, and networks, no
differently than they would for applications in an onsite datacenter

AWS Shared Responsibility Model

AWS Compliance
Amazon Web Services Cloud Compliance
enables customers to understand the robust
controls in place at AWS to maintain security
and data protection in the cloud
As you build systems on top of AWS cloud
infrastructure, compliance responsibilities will be
shared

AWS Pace of Innovation

Every day, AWS adds enough new server

capacity to support all of Amazons global
infrastructure when it was a $7B annual
revenue enterprise

AWS Pace of Innovation

5X the cloud capacity in use than the aggregate

total of the other 14 providers - Gartner
