I am going to start couple of blogs to cover AWS(Amazon Web Services) concepts from developer point of view. Here is part 1, More to come.
Amazon has created a lot of products to provide Cloud Services. Be it Infrastructure as a Service or Platform as a Service. I have put couple of Terms/Products along with in-premises counterparts
EC2 - a Virtual Machine. It can be any OS like Windows Server, Windows 7/8 or Linux
EBS(Elastic Block Storage) - Storage to be mapped to the EC2 instance. Its like local hard-derive
EFS(Elastic File System) - Storage mapped as derive, alternative of network derives mapped
Glacier Storage - Low cost Storage for inactive Data. Sometimes for regulatory requirement can be marked as WORM(Write once Read Many)
Route 53: Amazon's Proprietary DNS Services.
RDS(Relational Database Services) : Offers Managed Relational Database(be in SQL Server or Oracle). Easy to setup, operate and Scale
DynamoDB - It is fully managed , Scalable NoSQL Database
S3 (Simple Storage Services): Data Storage of any type of Object. Commonly used for Photos, Videos etc
