Compute

• EC2
• EC2 container
• Lambda

EC2

EC2

• Auto Scaling (more EC2 instance)

EC2 Container

EC2 container

• PaaS for container
• Simple API to start/stop container
• Check container status

Lambda

Serverless service

Lambda

• stateless
• trigger by lamda API
• auto scale
  • only need to specify memory
  • CPU、network、disk I/O would auto scale
• failover

Storage

• S3
• Glacier
• Storage Gateway

S3

• scale、failover
• version
• Bucket & Object
• Access through HTTP
  • http://songlin.s3.amazonaws.com/photos/ggininder.jpg
• Object
  • data + metadata(modified time、 Content-Type ...)

Glacier

• Cheap 1Gb/mon => $0.007

Storage Gateway

• Connect local with cloud (backup)
  • upload data to cloud
• Volume-based
  • mount as ISCSI
• Type-based
  • archive backup data
• Backend would store to S3/Glacier

Database

• RDS
• DynamoDB
• ElastiCache

RDS

• Relational database
• Compatible to MySQL、MariaDB、Oracle、MS SQL Server、 PgSQL、Amazon Aurora (5x faster than MySQL)
• Auto patch
• Backup & Snapshot
• Simple API to scale DB
  • vertical (hardware scale out or storage scale up)
  • horizontal (partition by your self)

DynamoDB

• NoSQL
• Auto spread data to mutilple instance
• Auto divide table across mutiple partitions as independent
• Auto replicate data across to other facilities to achieve availability 

ElasticCache

• For cache
• Supprt Memcached & Redis
• Auto failover
• Scale out (more instance)
  • e.g. work with memcached auto discovery

Networking

• VPC
• Route 53
• Load balancer

VPC

• Virtual private cloud
• Just like in the same server room

Route 53

• DNS service
• Traffic Flow (Policy)
  • depend on delay、GEO、server status to find optimize way
• API to configure

Load balancer

• Like haproxy
• Support HTTP/HTTPS/TCP/SSL
• Auto scaling
  • e.g. if specify EC2 instance > 2, auto start instance
• Combine with router 53 for more flexiable
• health check
  • ping
  • Get http status

Management

• CloudWatch
• CloudFormation
• OpsWorks

CloudWatch

• Collect log
• Set Alert
• Monitor status & resource usage & performance
• Monitor DB
• Trigger

CloudWatch

CloudFormation

• Recipient for creating aws service

OpsWorks

• Use Chef to setup your environment
