Knowledge Check

Q: What is the AWS term for physically distinct groups of data centers within a region?

True or False: There are more regions than Edge locations.

True or False: AWS owns and maintains the infrastructure required for application services and you provision and use them as needed.

Q: How do AZs in the same region differ?

Availability Zone (AZ).

False.

Each Availability Zone is isolated, but the Availability Zones in a region are connected through low-latency links.

Module 2AWS Infrastructure

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)

Resizable compute capacityComplete control of your computing resourcesReduces the time required to obtain and boot new server instances to minutesAmazon

Amazon EC2 Facts

Scale capacity as your computing requirements changePay only for capacity that you actually useChoose Linux or WindowsDeploy across AWS Regions and Availability Zones for reliability

Launching an Amazon EC2 Instance via the Web Console1. Determine the AWS Region in which you want to launch the

Amazon EC2 instance.2. Launch an Amazon EC2 instance from a pre-configured

Amazon Machine Image (AMI). 3. Choose an instance type based on CPU, memory, storage,

and network requirements.4. Configure network, IP address, security groups, storage

volume, tags, and key pair.

Choosing the Right Amazon EC2 Instance

EC2 instance types are optimized for different use cases and come in multiple sizes. This allows you to optimally scale resources to your workload requirements.AWS uses Intel® Xeon® processors for EC2 instances, providing customers with high performance and value.Consider the following when choosing your instances: Core count, memory size, storage size and type, network performance, and CPU technologies.Hurry Up and Go Idle - A larger compute instance can save you time and money, therefore paying more per hour for a shorter amount of time can be less expensive.

Intel® Processor Technologies

Intel® AVX – Get dramatically better performance for highly parallel HPC workloads such as life science engineering, data mining, financial analysis, or other technical computing applications. AVX also enhances image, video, and audio processing.Intel® AES-NI – Enhance your security with these new encryption instructions that reduce the performance penalty associated with encrypting/decrypting data. Intel® Turbo Boost Technology – Get more computing power when you need it with performance that adapts to spikes in your workload with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0

Instance Metadata & User Data

Instance Metadata:Is data about your instance.Can be used to configure or manage a running instance.

Instance User Data:Can be passed to the instance at launch.Can be used to perform common automated configuration tasks.Runs scripts after the instance starts.

Adding User Data

You can specify user data when launching an instance.User data can be:Ø Linux script – executed by cloud-initØ Windows batch or PowerShell scripts – executed by EC2Config service

User data scripts run once per instance-id by default.

Amazon EC2 Purchasing Options

DB Instances

DB Instances are the basic building blocks of Amazon RDS.They are an isolated database environment in the cloud.They can contain multiple user-created databases.

How Amazon RDS Backups Work

Automatic Backups:Ø Restore your database to a point in time.

Ø Are enabled by default.Ø Let you choose a retention period up to 35 days.

Manual Snapshots:Ø Let you build a new database instance from a snapshot.

Ø Are initiated by the user.Ø Persist until the user deletes them.

Ø Are stored in Amazon S3.

Multi-AZ RDS Deployment

With Multi-AZ operation, your database is synchronously replicated to another AZ in the same AWS Region.Failover automatically occurs to the standby in case of master database failure.Planned maintenance is applied first to standby databases.
