This document provides an introduction to Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). EC2 is a web service that offers scalable and resizable compute capacity in the AWS cloud. It allows users to launch machine images called instances that can be customized with operating systems and applications. Instances provide flexible and temporary block storage and can scale up or down based on demand. EC2 offers multiple instance types and stores applications across global regions and availability zones for high availability and redundancy.

3. Are we satisfied with your traditional
infrastructure?

4. the demand increases fast?
What happens if...

5. What happens if...
● Slow and manual process to
improving the system's capacity
● Possibility of high delay and
unavailability of the systems
● It’s hard to know where decrease
the capacity again if the demand
come back to normal

6. What happens if...
...you overestimate the infrastructure
capacity?

7. What happens if...

8. … occurs a blackout in server’s location?
What happens if...

9. What happens if...
● High costs and time to deploy the
applications in another locations
or lead with the problem

10. … someone removes some server’s critical
system file?
What happens if...

11. What happens if...
● Long time to lead with systems
problems

12. Web Service that provides
scalable compute capacity
in the AWS.
What happens if...

13. What is Amazon EC2?
● Reduced time to obtain and boot new server to minutes
● Fast resizable compute instances
● Multiple instances types, operating systems
● Automatically scale up and down depending on its needs
● Applications can be hosted in multiple locations world-wide
● Pay for what is used

14. Regions and Availability zones (AZs)

16. EC2 Instance store
EBS - Elastic Block Store
S3 - Simple Storage Service
Storage

17. EC2 Instance store
Temporary block level storage;
If the instance stops or terminate,
any data in instance store
volumes is lost;
Can’t be detached from an
instance and attached to another
Storage

18. Elastic Block Store (EBS)
Persistent block level storage;
Low-latency;
Automatically replicated within its
AZ;
Can only be used by EC2 instances;
Appears as a mountable volume;
Can be transported between virtual
machines;
Storage

19. Simple Storage Service (S3)
Storage for internet data
Files accessible using HTTP
protocols
S3 typically experiences write
delays while EBS does not
Inexpensive
Storage

20. Application Machine Images (AMI) and Instances
AMI:
● Contains the software configurations (OS, application server,
applications);
● Used to launch instances;
● Can be customized and saved.
INSTANCES:
● A copy of AMI running as a virtual server in cloud.
● Different types of instances can be launch by the same AMI.

22. Instance Store Backed

23. EBS Backed Instance

24. Instances Classification
Family: General purpose, Compute optimized, GPU instances,
Memory optimized, Storage optimized;
Type: t2.nano, t2.microFree tier eligible, t2.small, m4.large,
c3.8xlarge, d2.8xlarge, i2.xlarge, i2.2xlarge, i2.4xlarge,
i2.8xlarge....

26. Creating EC2 instances

40. Conclusions
● Reduced time scale systems
● Automatically scale
● Easy to use with habitual computing concepts
● A large number of components types compatible applications
● Easy way to expand your application around the world with low
latency
● Safe money in systems with variable demands
