Getting Started with AWS

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a collection of web services that together make up a cloud computing platform that can help make an organization more efficient. It offers a broad set of global computing, storage, database, analytic, application, and deployment services. AWS is very beneficial as it is highly flexible and very easy to use. It is also very cost-effective and reliable, with high performance and scalability.

In this chapter, we are going to take a look at fundamental AWS concepts, such as cloud service usage and pricing models. We will explore the AWS web dashboard, the so-called Management Console. On the Management Console, we will take our first steps with Lambda and the API Gateway Service.

Now, we are going to have a look at the following topics:

  • Introduction to the fundamental concepts of AWS
  • AWS account walkthrough
  • AWS Lambda
  • AWS API Gateway
