Cloud Guru Product Overview Flashcards
Lightsail
Quickly launch small projects like a test environment or preconfigured WordPress websites.
EC2 Instance Connect (EIC)
EIC Allows you to access EC2 without the use of SSH keys in your browser
Secure Shell (SSH)
A software package that enables secure system administration and file transfers over insecure networks.
Types of Load Balancers
- Application
- Network
- Classic
- Gateway
Application Load Balancer (ALB)
Best for HTTP and HTTPS traffic, with advanced request routing. ALBs are a good choice for applications that require complex routing based on HTTP/HTTPS headers or WebSocket support.
Network Load Balancer (NLB)
Ideal for handling millions of requests per second with low latency. NLBs are a good choice for applications that primarily use TCP or UDP.
Classic Load Balancer (CLB)
Suitable for simple load balancing of traffic across multiple EC2 instances. CLBs are only recommended for scenarios where you still have instances running on an EC2-Classic network.
Gateway Load Balancer (GLB)
Helps deploy, scale, and manage virtual appliances, such as firewalls and intrusion detection and prevention systems.
Wavelength
Allows users to reach applications without leaving the 5G mobile network.

EBS Volume Types
- Solid state drive (SSD) volumes
- HDD-backed volumes
General Purpose SSD
They balance price and performance for a wide variety of transactional workloads
Solid state drive (SSD) volumes
Optimized for transactional workloads involving frequent read/write operations with small I/O size, where the dominant performance attribute is IOPS.
Types of Solid state drive (SSD) volumes
- General Purpose SSD
- Provisioned IOPS SSD
Provisioned IOPS SSD
Highest performance Amazon EBS storage volumes designed for critical, IOPS-intensive, and throughput-intensive workloads that require low latency.
Types of HDD-Backed Volumes
- Optimized HDD
- Cold HDD
Optimized HDD
Provide low-cost magnetic storage that defines performance in terms of throughput rather than IOPS.
Cold HDD
Similar to Throughput Optimized HDD (st1) volumes, are designed to support infrequently accessed data.
MemoryDB
Durable, in-memory database service that delivers ultra-fast performance. It is Redis OSS-compatible, enabling customers to quickly build applications using the same flexible and friendly Redis OSS data structures, APIs, and commands they already use today.
Redis
World’s fastest in-memory database. It provides cloud and on-prem solutions for caching, vector search, and NoSQL databases
Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD)
A set of practices in software development that help teams deliver code changes more frequently and reliably
AWS CloudShell
Gets you started with the AWS CLI more quickly, so you can automate tasks, manage infrastructure, and interact with AWS services.
You can use CloudShell to clone repositories containing commonly used scripts, make edits to those scripts, and store them for future use.
