You will be introduced to the concept of Infrastructure as Code with the help of AWS CloudFormation.You will learn about different approaches to deploy applications on AWS. You'll also learn how to secure your infrastructure by isolating networks, controlling traffic and managing access to AWS resources. Next, you'll learn options and techniques for storing your data. You will experience how to integrate AWS services into your own applications by the use of SDKs. Finally, this book teaches you how to design for high availability, fault tolerance, and scalability.What's InsideOverview of cloud concepts and patternsManage servers on EC2 for cost-effectivenessInfrastructure automation with Infrastructure as Code (AWS CloudFormation)Deploy applications on AWSStore data on AWS: SQL, NoSQL, object storage and block storageIntegrate Amazon's pre-built servicesArchitect highly available and fault tolerant systemsAbout the ReaderWritten for developers and DevOps engineers moving distributed applications to the AWS platform.About the AuthorsAndreas Wittig and Michael Wittig are software engineers and consultants focused on AWS and web development.Table of ContentsPART 1 GETTING STARTEDWhat is Amazon Web Services?A simple example: WordPress in five minutesPART 2 BUILDING VIRTUAL INFRASTRUCTURE WITH SERVERS AND NETWORKINGUsing virtual servers: EC2Programming your infrastructure: the command line, SDKs, and CloudFormationAutomating deployment: CloudFormation, Elastic Beanstalk, and OpsWorksSecuring your system: IAM, security groups, and VPCPART 3 STORING DATA IN THE CLOUDStoring your objects: S3 and GlacierStoring your data on hard drives: EBS and instance storeUsing a relational database service: RDSProgramming for the NoSQL database service: DynamoDBPART 4 ARCHITECTING ON AWSAchieving high availability: availability zones, auto-scaling, and CloudWatchDecoupling your infrastructure: ELB and SQSDesigning for fault-toleranceScaling up and down: auto-scaling and CloudWatch

     -Byte, September 1995 I can't begin to tell you how many pleasurable hours of study and recreation they have afforded me! I have pored over them in cars, restaurants, at work, at home... and even at a Little League game when my son wasn't in the line-up. -Charles Long If you think you're a really good programmer... read [Knuth's] Art of Computer Programming... You should definitely send me a resume if you can read the whole thing. -Bill Gates It's always a pleasure when a problem is hard enough that you have to get the Knuths off the shelf. I find that merely opening one has a very useful terrorizing effect on computers. -Jonathan Laventhol This first volume in the series begins with basic programming concepts and techniques, then focuses more particularly on information structures-the representation of information inside a computer, the structural relationships between data elements and how to deal with them efficiently. Elementary applications are given to simulation, numerical methods, symbolic computing, software and system design. Dozens of simple and important algorithms and techniques have been added to those of the previous edition. The section on mathematical preliminaries has been extensively revised to match present trends in research. Ebook (PDF version) produced by Mathematical Sciences Publishers (MSP), http: //msp.org
