ECS study guideElastic Container Service - Launch Docker containers on AWS - You MUST provision & maintain the infrastructure (the EC2 instance) - AWS takes care of starting/stopping containers - Has integrations w/the app load balancer Fargate study guide- Launch Docker containers on AWS -DOES NOT need to provision EC2 -SERVERLESS Offering - AWS just runs containers for you based on the CPU/RAM you need ECR study guideElastic Container Registry - Private docker registry on AWS - this is where you store your docker images so they can be run by ECS or Fargate What's serverless? study guide- new paradigm in which the developers don't have to manage servers anymore - they just deploy code or functions! - initially FaaS (Fx as a service) - serverless was pioneered by AWS Lambda but now also includes anything that's managed :DB, msg, storage, etc Serverless AWS services study guideAmazon S3, DynamoDB, Fargate, Lambda Lambda study guideVirtual functions - no servers to manage! Limited by time - short executions Run on -demand Scaling is automated EC2 vs Lambda Serverless Thumbnail creation & CronJob study guideimage created in S3 then pushed to Lambda Fx creating a Thumbnail, then pushed to new thumbnail in S3 and Metadata in DynamoDB, ALL serverless integrations. CRON allows you to define schedule and run script, runs on Linux AMI. CloudWath Events EventBridge, trigger every hr for Lambda fx to perform a task Amazon API Gateway study guideFully managed service for developers to easily create, publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs example: building a serverless API SERVERLESS and scalable AWS Batch study guideBatch (scheduled) vs. continuous - use of EC2 and Spot instances in ECS Batch vs Lambda study guideLamdba: time limit, limited runtimes, limited temporary disk space, serverless Batch: no time limit, any runtime as long as it's packaged as a Docker image, rely on EBS/instance store for disk space, relies on EC2(can be managed by AWS) Amazon Lightsail study guideVirtual server, storage, database and networking Low & predictable pricing! simpler alternative to EC2, RDS, ELB, EBs, Route 53... great for people w/little cloud experience Use Cases: - simple web applications - simple websites - Dev/Test env Elastic Beanstalk study guidePlatform as a service for developers to only deploy code, end to end management of web application - Health monitoring suite available within the service pushes metrics to CloudWatch. - Also checks for app health, publishes health events AWS CodeDeploy study guideDeploy apps automatically Works w/EC2 and also on-prem servers is a "HYBRID" service AWS CodePipeline study guideOrchestrate the diff steps to have the code automatically pushed to production - code -Build-Test
