Learning about Cloud Computing with AWS

What is Cloud Computing and its benefits?

Who is using AWS and what are they using it for?

What are AWS’s products and how do I use them to run my workloads?
What is Cloud Computing?
1. Pay For Infrastructure as you Need it, Not Up Front

On-Premises
$0 to get started
Pay as you go
2. Lower Total Cost of IT

Scale allows us to constantly
reduce our costs

We are comfortable running a high
volume, low margin business

We pass the savings along to
our customers in the form of
low prices
3. You Don’t Need to Guess Capacity
AWS
Actual demand
Actual demand

Dissatisfaction

Self
Hosting
Waste

Predicted Demand

Rigid

Elastic
4. Increase Innovation: Experiment Fast with Low Cost and Low Risk

On-Premises

$ Millions

Nearly $0
Experiment Infrequently

Experiment Often

Failure is expensive

Fail quickly at a low cost

Less Innovation

More Innovation
5. Get Rid of Undifferentiated Heavy Lifting

We take care of it…
Data Centers
Power
Cooling
Cabling
Networking

Racks
Servers
Storage
Labor

So you don’t have to …
Buy and install new hardware
Setup and configure new software
build or upgrade data centers
6. Go Global in Minutes
Who is using AWS and what are they using it for?
Powering the Most Popular Internet Businesses
Trusted by Enterprises
Shell uses AWS to Develop Software Faster and Cheaper

AWS Global Infrastructure

9 Regions

25 Availability Zones
Continuous Expansion
Architected for Enterprise Security Requirements

“The Amazon Virtual Private Cloud
[Amazon VPC] was a unique option that
offered an additional level of security and
an ability to integrate with other aspects of
our infrastructure.”

Dr. Michael Miller, Head of HPC for R&D
Many purchase models to support different needs

Free Tier

On-Demand

Reserved

Spot

Dedicated

Get Started on AWS
with free usage & no
commitment

Pay for compute
capacity by the hour
with no long-term
commitments

Make a low, one-time
payment and receive a
significant discount on
the hourly charge

Bid for unused capacity,
charged at a Spot Price
which fluctuates based
on supply and demand

Launch instances within
Amazon VPC that run
on hardware dedicated
to a single customer

For POCs and
getting started

For spiky workloads,
or to define needs

For committed
utilization

For time-insensitive or
transient workloads

For highly sensitive or
compliance related
workloads
