<p>Amazon VPC</p>
<p>Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC). Amazon VPC enables you to provision an isolated section of the AWS Cloud. In this isolated section, you can launch resources in a virtual network that you define. Within a virtual private cloud (VPC), you can organize your resources into subnets. A subnet is a section of a VPC that can contain resources such as Amazon EC2 instances.</p>

<p>Amazon EC2</p>
<p>Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2)</p>
<p>provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud</p>
<p>Amazon EC2</p>
<p>provide a balance of compute, memory, and networking resources. You can use them for a variety of workloads, such as: application servers gaming servers backend servers for enterprise applications small and medium databases</p>
<p>EC2 General purpose instances</p>
<p>ideal for compute-bound applications that benefit from high-performance processors. You can use compute optimized instances for workloads such as web, application, and gaming servers.are ideal for high-performance web servers, compute-intensive applications servers, and dedicated gaming servers. You can also use for batch processing workloads that require processing many transactions in a single group.</p>
<p>EC2 Compute optimized instances</p>
<p>are designed to deliver fast performance for workloads that process large datasets in memory. a high-performance database or a workload that involves performing real-time processing of a large amount of unstructured data.</p>
<p>EC2 Memory optimized instances</p>
<p>use hardware accelerators, or coprocessors, to perform some functions more efficiently than is possible in software running on CPUs. Examples of these functions include floating-point number calculations, graphics processing, and data pattern matching.are ideal for workloads such as graphics applications, game streaming, and application streaming.</p>
<p>EC2 Accelerated computing instances</p>
<p>are designed for workloads that require high, sequential read and write access to large datasets on local storage. Examples include distributed file systems, data warehousing applications, and high-frequency online transaction processing (OLTP) systems.are designed to deliver tens of thousands of low-latency, random IOPS to applications.</p>
<p>EC2 Storage optimized instances</p>
<p>scaling option that responds to changing demand.</p>
<p>dynamic scaling</p>
<p>scaling option that automatically schedules the right number of Amazon EC2 instances based on anticipated demand.</p>

<p>SNS</p>
<p>Simple Notification Service</p>
<p>SQS</p>
<p>Simple Queue Service</p>
<p>a publish/subscribe service. Using topics, a publisher publishes messages to subscribers. This is similar to the coffee shop; the cashier provides coffee orders to the barista who makes the drinks.subscribers can be web servers, email addresses, AWS Lambda functions, or several other options.</p>
<p>SNS</p>
<p>send, store, and receive messages between software components, without losing messages or requiring other services to be available. an application sends messages into a queue. A user or service retrieves a message from the queue, processes it, and then deletes it from the queue.</p>
<p>SQS</p>
<p>a service that lets you run code without needing to provision or manage servers</p>
<p>Lambda</p>
<p>upload code to a function, configure trigger, when triggered, code is run in managed, serverless environment</p>
<p>Lambda</p>
<p>limit of processing time for lambda</p>
