What is Amazon EC2?

Amazon EC2 is a leading web service that delivers secure, scalable compute capacity on demand. It simplifies web-scale cloud computing, allowing you to easily provision and manage virtual servers. Gain complete control over your computing resources and leverage Amazon's robust infrastructure.

Key Topics Covered:

• EC2 Fundamentals: Learn the core components necessary for launching and managing EC2 instances in AWS.
• Instance Creation & Configuration: Choose from pre-configured Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) or create your own customized AMIs with your applications, libraries, and configurations.
• Security & Networking: Master security group configurations and network interface (ENI) management to protect your instances and control network traffic.
• EC2 Instance Types: Understand and select the optimal instance types for your workloads.
• EC2 Purchasing Options: Explore various EC2 purchasing options to optimize costs:
  • On-Demand Instances: Pay-as-you-go pricing for flexible compute.
  • Reserved Instances: Significant discounts for committed usage.
  • Savings Plans: Flexible pricing model for compute usage discounts.
  • Capacity Reservations: Reserve capacity in specific Availability Zones.
  • Spot Instances: Request unused EC2 capacity at steep discounts.
• Elastic IP Addresses (EIPs): Learn the benefits of using Elastic IP addresses for static public IP addresses.
• Elastic Load Balancing (ELB): Implement load balancing solutions with Classic, Application, and Network Load Balancers to distribute traffic and ensure high availability. Explore advanced ELB concepts.
• Auto Scaling: Automate scaling of your EC2 instances with Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling. Learn the basics and dive into advanced deployment strategies.
• Dedicated Hosts & Instances: Understand the use cases for Dedicated Instances and Dedicated Hosts for compliance and licensing requirements.
• Elastic Block Store (EBS): Utilize EBS for persistent block storage for your EC2 instances.
• Placement Groups: Control placement of your EC2 instances for low latency.
