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
Lab from: https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-serverless-workshops/tree/master/WebApplication/1_StaticWebHosting
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
- Relational Database
- Resizable capacity
- MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc.
- Object Storage
- Pay for storage use
- Glacier for long-term archive
- Good for big data analytics, backup, and other applications
S3
RDS
Add in website content. Download from S3.
(s3Bucket: aws-lab-materials)
2. Upload content
define who can access the content in your S3 buckets using a bucket policy
3. 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
- S3 bucket
- Bucket Policy
Now delete it all :)
