11. What is Amazon ?
• Boot server instances, scale up/down, pay-per-use
• EC2: Compute capacity in the cloud
• S3: Storage capacity in the cloud (1b → 5 GB)
• RRS (reduced redundancy), RDS (database), FWS
(fulfillment), SQS (queue), SNS (notification),
CloudWatch (monitoring), FPS (payment), VPC
(private cloud), EBS (block storage), ...
