Regions
Groups of data centers and servers all around the world, separated by regions
0 data is moved from one region to the other without given permission
4 things to think when picking region
- Local Compliance
- Proximity - how close are you to the customers
- Latency - time for data to be sent and received
4.feature availability- are the features in this region for AWS - pricing - some regions are more expensive

AWS CloudFormation
IaC, supports EC2, storage, database and analytics and more
Give CloudFormation the templet and it provisions from there
(manages the API’s for you)
infastrusture as code - deployes templet
AWS VPC

Public Traffic using a VPC
To allow data inside VPC you need an internet gateway
Private Traffic using a VPC

AWS Direct connect
a completely private dedicated fiber connection
great for low latency, compliance and high speeds
