Chapter 3. Images and Instances
In the previous chapter, we learnt a lot about how AWS provides top of the line security and access management capabilities to its users in the form of IAM and various other tools.
In this chapter, we will explore one of the most popular and widely used AWS's core services, that is, Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). This chapter will cover many important aspects about EC2, such as its use cases, its various terms and terminologies, and cost-effective pricing strategies to name a few. It will also show you how to get started with the service using both the AWS Management Console and the AWS CLI; so buckle up and get ready for an awesome time!
