AWS is the abbreviation as Amazon Web Services. It is a fully secure, and rapidly developing cloud computing platform that is provided by Amazon. It is a blend of infrastructure as an service (Iaas) and platform as an service (PaaS) and packaged software as a services (SaaS) options. It provides services in format of components that can be used to build and run an application on the cloud. It offers cloud computing using a pay-as-you-go model.

Funny enough I was a victim of task mall withdrawal problem . They assigned me to complete 6 tasks I am done 5 of that 6th payments after recharged they were not responding. Searching for how to get my money back a friend at work recommended MRS Purnimabarik on telegram *( t.me/Purnimabarik )* who she helped her recovered $89,979 from an investment advisory crypto fraud so I message them and to the glory of God behold my money of about $8700 was returned from the Task mall platform. W*h*at*8s**A*p*p : **+**1 (828) (460)3938 . I do not know if I am allowed to do this but just trying to safe you all from losing your money without a try .

Comprehensive introduction to AWS

This gives an excellent overview of what can be achieved with AWS. I see some of the latest offerings introduced in 2017 missing. I guess the material about them will be available in an updated version.

tbh this shouldn’t count as a book but it’s like 90 pages long and has been taking up my personal time and as a result i haven’t read other books so i’m adding it to this year’s challenge.

but yeah, it’s v informative.

Light overview

Good overview of services and reasonably up to date. For a whitepaper, not bad. But, if you are looking for depth, look somewhere else.

Just an overview... it needs to point to some use cases or architectures.

Great review for CCP exam.

Highly suggest reading through this whitepaper before your CUP exam to review any AWS services you are not familiar with.

Good Brief Summary of Services

Good set of brief summary for AWS services along with links to their product page to have further details. Good to keep in Architecture Toolbox.
