Introduction
Cloud computing is a model that enables convenient on-demand network access to a shared pool configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services). You can make provision of it rapidly with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. One of the main advantages of cloud computing is the possibility of replacing spent capital on up-front infrastructures with low variable costs, which scale with your business. With the Cloud, companies no longer need to plan and purchase servers and other IT infrastructures in weeks or months in advance. Instead, they can instantly launch hundreds or thousands of servers in minutes and get results faster too.
The Amazon Web Services platform (AWS)
Introduction
Very often in the course of history, the greatest technological and non-technological evolutions passed almost unnoticed, while revolutionizing, or rather evolving the simplest daily actions of millions of people. In fact, nowadays, reading your e-mail wherever you are, or uploading your own music library online to listen to it later from another device, or pay the mortgage comfortably from home, are simple actions and in the order of the day. Yet, until just a few years ago, these were not everyday gestures at all. What has partly happened and it’s still happening in part is an evolution of traditional information technology. This is the great scope of change, which sees the Cloud, along with other phenomena, lead the ICT industry towards the so-called Third Platform.
It establishes, in fact, the entry into the third era
after that of the mainframes and the second phase linked to the diffusion of PCs, databases, networks, and client-server environments, this is the renewal of the ICT sector that promises to expand radically the use of information technology, as leading to new and intelligent varieties of solutions. In practice, Cloud Computing technology allows you to use any type of document without needing hard disks and digital archives. The software, instead of being installed directly on their computers, resides on the net; that is in the Cloud, literally in the cloud
Different servers would decentralize the performance of The Amazon Web Services (AWS) and then become accessible via browser and applications from any device having connection. The advantages immediately catch the eye, and it range from being able to access our files, our photos, and our documents wherever we are and at any time, to be able to travel lighter without having to carry storage units with you or even the same computers. There are not even disadvantages. Two, above all is the need for a connection, which may not always be available, or the temporary unavailability of the servers on which our data is stored.
The target of this book is to give readers a complete guide from beginners to advance for Amazon web service: Amazon Web Services (AWS), trying to illustrate the advantages and disadvantages of this solution and proposing an example of configuring a virtual machine instance on the cloud.
CHAPTER 1
Independently Manage A Cloud Architecture Through Aws Services
Among several technology terms and themes, one of the most popular is cloud computing. Virtually everything we consume on the Internet, such as games, social networks, apps, file storage, videos, and music, are all made available through cloud services. Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of computing power, database storage, applications, and other IT resources over the Internet. This is at pricing, based on usage.
Companies like AWS, Azure, and Google, makes this computing power available as services on the Internet. The Amazon Web Services (AWS) is one of the most adopted cloud platforms and most comprehensive in the world, offering hundreds of services. It has millions of clients, including startups, large corporations, and various government agencies.
Taking into consideration the many benefits we have from using cloud services and adding this to the need for software and project planning and development, using a cloud-computing platform such as AWS helps us greatly in deploying our designs and architecture, from making our front-end application available, such as backend, database usage, to monitoring complex environments. Some of the architectural models and types of services that AWS can deliver to us for the benefits include:
1. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
This eliminates the need for investment, monitoring, and maintenance on local servers.
2. Platform as a Service (PaaS)
This allows us to develop software on a variety of technologies, even without the need for a local environment.
3. SaaS (Software as a Service)
This is the Architectural model most adopted when using cloud architecture. In this model, companies can use the above models and deliver their software as SaaS, facilitating their integrations, communications, and features.
When we have an application available on the internet, regardless of the Cloud Company or Servers we use, we have several concerns to deal with, as regarding Networking and Security. Some of them are:
How developers will access applications and what features and services each team member may or may not access
What addresses, ports, and access will be exposed for each of our applications?
How will we do the scalability, both to make new instances of our applications available, and to reduce that scale?
When we use AWS, many of these concerns cited above are no longer critical. This is because AWS facilitates the deployment of these security features, making it easy to use and deploy in both our applications and our architecture. Delivering software, deploying, and keeping applications to be always available are no longer a much-needed concern given the tools available today. There are several tools and services that help us perform a Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery of our software without much of a headache. Best of all, keeping applications always available zero downtime, even at deploy time.
In addition to AWS's own services, for example, Code Deploy, Code Pipeline, Code Commit, and Codebuild, we can cite third-party tools that do these roles very well, such as Gitlab CI / CD, Github Actions, Codeship, Jenkins, among others.
The AWS SDK allows you to access the AWS services directly from the source code of your applications. Today, many different programming languages have their respective SDK available, among them are the JavaScript, Python, PHP,.NET, Ruby, Java, Go, Node.js, and C ++.
With the AWS SDK, you can authenticate users through Facebook, Google, or you can Login with Amazon using web identity federation, store application data in Amazon DynamoDB, and save user files to Amazon S3, for example. The AWS Command Line Interface is a tool for AWS terminal service management.
With it installed and configured (Access Key and Secret Key), you can control various AWS services via the command line in the terminal and even automate them using bash/shell scripts. We can use AWS CLI to connect to AWS S3 (file storage) and make managing objects easier.
We can upload and download multiple files with a single folder-level command, or we can turn on / off an application instance on AWS EC2 or scale containers on AWS ECS. The AWS IAM (Identity and Access Management) is a service that helps us to control access to resources safely AWS. We can use IAM to control who is authenticated (logged in) and authorized (has permissions) to use resources in the cloud environment. We can use IAM to manage users and access several permissions for team members, applications, or the process at which they communicate between these services.
The AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a feature of your AWS
