Implementing Cloud Design Patterns for AWS

Introduction to Amazon Web Services

Welcome to the first chapter of this book, Implementing Cloud Design Patterns for AWS, Second Edition. After a brief history of the development of the cloud and the part that AWS plays in it, we'll look into the Amazon philosophy. An exploration of some of its most well-known customers will give us a platform to dive into the reasons why it's a good choice for your product development effort. We'll survey the service offerings from AWS and create a trial account, which you can use to develop your products.

This chapter will briefly cover the following topics:

  • Introduction to AWS
  • Utility computing
  • Categories of service offerings
  • Benefits of moving to the cloud

Introduction to AWS

Amazon—aren't they an online bookstore? This is what someone in the late 1990s might have asked. Nowadays, with nearly 40% of the e-commerce market in the US and over 30% in India, everyone knows who they are. But not so well-known outside of technology circles is Amazon Web Services (AWS). Amazon describes this part of the business as follows:

AWS is a secure cloud services platform (https://aws.amazon.com/what-is-cloud-computing/), offering compute power, database storage, content delivery, and other functionality to help businesses scale and grow. Millions of customers (https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/case-studies/) are currently leveraging AWS cloud products (https://aws.amazon.com/products/) and solutions (https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/) to build sophisticated applications with increased flexibility, scalability, and reliability (https...

Summary

Throughout this brief introduction to AWS, we learned not only about the background and industry shift that started the movement into utility computing, but also where AWS fits into it. We touched on the kinds of problems AWS can solve and where its services are competitive. There are countless unique processes to be solved with this ever-growing environment. Picking up consistent patterns throughout this book will help you strengthen products of many forms and protect against risk. In the following chapters, we'll go over some of the core services that are used to create basic design patterns. These patterns will be used to deliver more complex architectures using DevOps and data best practices in the DevOps Patterns and Persistence Patterns sections.

Key benefits

  • Build highly robust systems using the cloud infrastructure
  • Make web applications resilient against scheduled and accidental downtime
  • Explore and apply Amazon-provided services in unique ways to solve common design problems

Description

Whether you're just getting your feet wet in cloud infrastructure or already creating complex systems, this book will guide you through using the patterns to fit your system needs. Starting with patterns that cover basic processes such as source control and infrastructure-as-code, the book goes on to introduce cloud security practices. You'll then cover patterns of availability and scalability and get acquainted with the ephemeral nature of cloud environments. You'll also explore advanced DevOps patterns in operations and maintenance, before focusing on virtualization patterns such as containerization and serverless computing. In the final leg of your journey, this book will delve into data persistence and visualization patterns. You'll get to grips with architectures for processing static and dynamic data, as well as practices for managing streaming data. By the end of this book, you will be able to design applications that are tolerant of underlying hardware failures, resilient against an unexpected influx of data, and easy to manage and replicate.

Who is this book for?

If you’re an architect, solution provider, or DevOps community member looking to implement repeatable patterns for deploying and maintaining services in the Amazon cloud infrastructure, this book is for you. You’ll need prior experience of using AWS understand key concepts covered in the book, as it focuses on the patterns rather than the basics of using AWS.

  • Make complete use of highly available and redundant storage
  • Design content delivery networks to improve user experience

A great stop if you want to understand Cloud Native patterns on AWS. You can tell the author has done the work in his own career. Masterful!

I had high hopes for this book, but unfortunately it turned out to be pretty disappointing. Firstly, Terraform it's used for almost everything, still if you want to learn Terraform I would rather buy a book on that topic not this one which does a poor job at it.Secondly, the book it's all over the place, the content is poorly organised and it seems that at least half of the book is wasted on just briefly mentioning (at very very high level) a lot of the AWS services that aren't covered in any other way in the book.Lastly on those subjects that are actually covered, they could have done a better job at it and go deeper into them.

Good as an introduction piece to services available on AWS, though not worth the investment.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
