This webinar will emphasize how easy it is to deploy AWS resources with access to various publicly available AMIs, SaaS solutions, and CloudFormation templates to get started quickly with AWS. This session will dig deeper into how to launch critical business applications on AWS such as deploy an emergency website, launch SharePoint server and more. The gist of the webinar will be on ease of use and ability to clone environments that largest customers are running while trivializing undifferentiated heavy lifting to emphasize AWS’ ease in deploying in enterprises settings.

Elastic Compute Cloud
• Resizable compute capacity in 27 instance types
• Reduces the time required to obtain and boot new server instances to minutes
or seconds
• Scale capacity as your computing requirements change
• Pay only for capacity that you actually use
• Choose Linux or Windows
• Deploy across Regions and Availability Zones for reliability
• Support for virtual network interfaces that can be attached to EC2 instances in
your VPC

6. Compute
EC2
Virtual servers in the cloud
Amazon Machine Image
• Building blocks of EC2 instances
• An AMI is like a template of a computer's root volume.
• Can be public or private and shared with other accounts
• Create hardened or gold “Images” of your EC2 infrastructure
• Copy AMIs between regions

7. Compute
EC2
Virtual servers in the cloud
Elastic Block Storage (EBS)
• Use for persistent storage from 1GB – 1TB
• Can use to create RAID configuration for a server
• Off-instance block storage that persists independently
• Storage volumes for use with Amazon EC2 instances – create, attach, backup,
restore and delete
• Can be attached to a running Amazon EC2 instance and exposed as a block
device for raw or formatted (file system) access
• Snapshots are durably saved to S3
• Ideal use cases:
– OS Boot device / root file system; secondary volumes/file systems
– Typical basis for database storage
– Raw block devices for RAID, some databases
• Available in both standard and provisioned IOPS (up to 4k IOPS)

8. Compute
EC2
Virtual servers in the cloud
Auto Scaling
• Client Defined Business Rules
• Scale your Amazon EC2 capacity automatically once you define the conditions
(may be 1000’s of servers)
• Can scale up just a little…doesn’t need to be massive number of servers (may
be simply 2 servers)
• Well suited for applications that experience variability in usage
• Set minimum and maximum scaling policies
• Alternate Use is for Fault Tolerance

9. Compute
EC2
Virtual servers in the cloud
Elastic Load Balancing
• Supports the routing and load balancing of HTTP, HTTPS and generic TCP
traffic to EC2 instances
• Supports SSL termination and Proxy protocol
• Supports health checks to ensure detect and remove failing instances
• Dynamically grows and shrinks required resources based on traffic
• Seamlessly integrates with Auto-scaling to add and remove instances based
on scaling activities
• Single CNAME provides stable entry point for DNS configuration
• Supports internal load balancing within a VPC

11. Database
DynamoDB
Scalable NoSQL Data Store
Relational Database Service
• Fully-managed, tuned MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle 11g, or MS SQL
• Cost-efficient and resizable capacity
• Manages time-consuming database admin tasks
• Code, applications, and tools you already use today work seamlessly
• Automatically patches the database software and backs up your database
• Flexible Licensing: BYOL or License Include
• Multi-AZ deployment option for MySQL, PostgreSQL and Oracle
• Cross-Region Read Replica support for MySQL

CloudFormation
• Create templates of stack of resources
• Deploy stack from template with runtime parameters
• Templates are simple JSON formatted text files
• CloudFormer supports generating templates from running environments
