Preface

AWS provides a huge range of managed services. While each is well-documented, figuring out how to use them together to build a business infrastructure is less clear. In this book, you'll see how the most successful tech start-ups launch and scale their services on AWS, and how you can do it too. Thanks to the implementation of this new philosophy, high performers such as Amazon, Netflix, and Airbnb have been able to break down the silos surrounding developers and operations teams, gaining tremendous agility and the ability to deliver new code quickly and reliably. This book is a comprehensive guide to AWS that will help readers understand AWS in a step-by-step manner.
