AWS Made Simple and Fun
A 270-page guide to AWS solutions. Perfect for devs, tech leads, and software experts.
- Analyze real-world scenarios
- Get detailed step-by-step instructions
- Understand the reasoning behind each solution
- Learn best practices to scale and secure the solution
This book is meant to serve as a guide to different AWS solutions, explaining how to implement them, the reasoning behind the decisions, and best practices to take the solution to the next level. It was written for devs, tech leads, cloud/devops engineers and software experts in general, who have a basic to intermediate understanding of AWS and want to take that understanding to an advanced level, one solution at a time.
This book is not meant to help you with certifications, and it is not meant as a repository of production-grade solutions you can copy-paste. The goal is to help you develop and improve your understanding of these solutions, from both an implementation and an architectural perspective.
Most chapters contain:
- A use case
- A scenario to give context
- The list of AWS services involved
- Instructions on how to implement the solution (including code samples)
- An explanation on how the solution works
- A discussion on the problem
- A list of best practices
Some others serve just as an introduction to a topic, and only have a brief explanation of an AWS service and some best practices for it.
Chapters are grouped by topic similarity, some work as continuations to other chapters, and some may briefly reference other chapters. However, each chapter can stand on its own and be read independently of others, and reading them in any order shouldn't significantly affect your experience.
This book is part of the Simple AWS newsletter.
