Certification and Accreditations

Variable expense

Replace capital

expenditure with variable

expense

Economies of scale

Lower variable expense

than companies can

achieve themselves

Elastic capacity

No need to guess

capacity requirements

and over-provision

Speed and agility

Infrastructure in minutes

not weeks

Focus on mission

Not undifferentiated heavy

IT lifting

Global Reach

Go global in minutes and

reach a global audience

EC2

Virtual servers in the cloud

Elastic Compute

Cloud

• Resizable compute capacity in 34 different 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

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

EC2

Virtual servers in the cloud

Compute

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)

EC2

Virtual servers in the cloud

Compute

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

EC2

Virtual servers in the cloud

Compute

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

Amazon EC2 - Demo

Simple Storage

Service

• A “Bucket” is equivalent to a “folder”

• Able to store unlimited number of Objects in a Bucket

• Objects from 1B-5 TB; no per bucket size limit

• Highly available storage for the Internet (object store)

• HTTP/S endpoint to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from

anywhere on the web

• Highly scalable, reliable, fast, and inexpensive

• Annual durability of 99.999999999%

• Designed for 99.99% availability

• Holds trillions of objects

• Peak requests 1.5 Million per second
