Installation and Setup

You will need an AWS account in order to follow the examples in this book. Since the account is free to open, you need not worry about payment for now. However, the free tier has defined usage limits for specific services. If your usage of these services exceeds the monthly quota for 12 months, you will need to pay the pay-as-you-go AWS service rates.

In this chapter, we will describe the process of opening an AWS account, including adding your payment information. Then we will discuss the free tier and demonstrate all the things you can do for free in the first year and beyond. Finally, we will introduce you to the AWS Management Console.

Here are the topics we'll cover:

  • Creating an AWS account
  • The free tier
  • The AWS Management Console

Let's begin by showing you how to open your AWS account.
