Amazon Web Services (AWS)

This chapter first examines the AWS global infrastructure, which includes availability zones, regions, edge locations, and regional edge caches. It supports over 200 services in numerous categories. Even though the number of services is constantly expanding, this chapter covers the most essential categories of management and monitoring, security, identity, and compliance, networking, autoscaling, elastic load balancing, compute, storage, and databases. In the lab, you will create a fully operational three-tier web architecture that resides and operates on the AWS infrastructure.
