Level Set:  What is cloud computing?

Getting Hands-on:  Build a Static Website on AWS.

Powerful Tools to Research Next

Passing the Interview

Feel comfortable exploring/developing in the Cloud!

Today's Goals

Agenda

What is Cloud Computing?

  • network of remote servers hosted via the internet providing services to clients

What's a server?

 

 

A powerful computer (usually rack mounted), that is monitor-less. You must connect remotely.

 

 

A server in the cloud...

 

Someone else managing the physical servers on location and you using its services via the internet

 

Who are the cloud providers? 

What is Cloud Computing?

  • Three distinct types of computing services delivered remotely to clients via the internet.

Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS)

  •  Allows end users to remotely use hardware and resources via the web on a pay as you go basis

Platform as a Service (PAAS)

  •  Allows end users to publish and develop software applications to an environment hosted via the web

Software as a Service (SAAS)

  •  Allows end users to use software applications via their web browsers

How does the cloud impact business?

What are the benefits?

  • Cost!  Pay for infrastructure as needed
  • Scale up to balance load
  • Low risk- great for experiments (hello start-up)
  • Deploy applications in multiple regions

Which is why so many companies run on AWS!

So Let's Deploy Our Website on AWS too

Non-Functional Requirements?

Architecture Diagram

Regions vs Availability Zones

Region

Separate geographical area

Ex: California & Oregon (US West Regions)

Availability Zone (AZ)

Isolated location within a region

How might this help businesses?

Architecture Diagram

Select Your Region

1. Create an S3 bucket

Simple Storage Service

 

Add in website content. Download from S3.

(s3Bucket: aws-lab-materials)

2. Upload content

By default, AWS blocks access to the bucket. Therefore, we need to disable it so we can see our website.

3a. Disable Block Public Access

define who can access the content in your S3 buckets using a bucket policy

3b. Add a bucket policy

Bucket Policy

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Principal": "*",
            "Action": "s3:GetObject",
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::YOUR_BUCKET_NAME/*"
        }
    ]
}

Enable access to index.html via url

4. Enable Website Hosting

Check out our app! 

The site is from aws-samples github organization. 

Recap of What we Built
