AWS is responsible for the security of the global infrastructure, including regions, availability zones, hardware, software, networking, and facilities, while the customer is responsible for security within the cloud, such as data, operating systems, and applications.

AWS makes available to customers, in an instructor-led format, various resources to learn about security in the cloud.

AWS Online Tech Talks offer structured training through online presentations, while AWS Classroom Training provides hands-on learning with instructors.

AWS service that automatically adjusts the number of Amazon EC2 instances to suit demand or performance.

Isolated locations within an AWS Region, each with independent power, cooling, and networking.

Features enabling applications to be spread across multiple Availability Zones, increasing resilience to single location failures.

AWS features controlling inbound and outbound traffic to/from subnets within a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

AWS service enabling migration of on-premises servers to AWS.

AWS features enabling content distribution for low latency and high performance across multiple AWS points of presence.

Edge locations within the AWS Global Infrastructure for localized content delivery.

A single location containing one or more data centers.

AWS Control Tower uses AWS CloudFormation to set up resources in a landing zone. AWS CloudFormation helps create and manage AWS resources with templates.

Amazon VPC lets you create isolated virtual networks within the AWS cloud, providing security and control over your resources.

AWS CloudTrail tracks and monitors AWS API calls for your account, providing insights into who did what and when. It helps with compliance, auditing, and risk management.

AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) allows you to securely control access to AWS resources, defining who can do what and when.

EC2 Instances offer a flexible, pay-as-you-go pricing model, allowing you to pay only for the computing power you use and adjust it based on your needs.

EC2 integrates seamlessly with other AWS services like VPC, CloudTrail, and IAM, enabling smoother and more secure management of your applications.

You are responsible for managing and maintaining the operating systems used on EC2 instances, including applying patches, security updates, and software upgrades.

Amazon EC2 does not have a 100% uptime guarantee; however, it offers high availability and redundancy features to minimize downtime.

A set of best practices for designing and operating secure, efficient, and cost-effective AWS systems, encompassing five pillars: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost optimization.

The AWS Well-Architected Framework promotes best practices for designing and operating reliable, secure, efficient, and cost-effective systems.

The customer is responsible for managing the guest operating systems, while AWS manages the underlying infrastructure and security.

It involves designing and implementing AWS solutions that are efficient, scalable, and cost-effective. It is a best practice for cost governance.

Architecture optimization is the best practice for cost governance.

A set of guidelines and best practices that help architects evaluate and improve the design of AWS applications and workloads.

The responsibility for security in the cloud is shared between AWS and the customer.

It is a key part of the AWS shared responsibility model, where AWS manages the security of the underlying infrastructure, and the customer is responsible for security within the cloud.

A dedicated and private network connection established between your internal network and AWS, using standard Ethernet fiber-optic cables. It's like a direct high-speed road bypassing public roads for faster access to AWS resources.

AWS Direct Connect is responsible for establishing and maintaining a secure connection between your on-premises network and AWS cloud resources. It manages the network infrastructure, like the high-speed road, but not the traffic on it (your applications).

AWS is accountable for the maintenance of the hardware infrastructure, including the physical servers, networking equipment, and data centers. This includes ensuring security, stability, and performance of the underlying physical environment.

AWS is responsible for the global infrastructure, including the physical servers, networking, and data centers. This includes ensuring the security and reliability of that infrastructure.

AWS handles the hardware, software, networking, and facilities that run AWS Cloud services. It's responsible for the security and availability of the physical environment.

AWS is responsible for the security of the shared infrastructure, such as the physical servers, networking, and data centers. They ensure the security of the global infrastructure.

It's a design principle where components are designed to be independent and interact loosely through well-defined interfaces. This allows for easier scalability, maintainability, and adaptability, as changes in one component don't affect others significantly.

When architecting in the cloud, prioritize designing components that are loosely coupled with each other, allowing for independent changes and evolution. This improves overall flexibility, maintainability, and scalability.

The AWS Well-Architected Framework pillar focused on protecting data, systems, and assets, including risk assessment and mitigation strategies. It ensures secure practices like identity management, data protection, and incident response.

IAM allows you to create groups of users, each having specific permissions. This simplifies management by granting the same permissions to multiple individuals within a group.

It ensures you have a dedicated service for managing users, groups, and permissions, making it easier to control who can access your resources and what they can do.

The AWS Well-Architected Framework pillar that focuses on ensuring your applications and infrastructure can handle expected and unexpected demand. It includes concepts like scaling, load balancing, and monitoring.

Account A's reserved instances will apply to its four running EC2 instances, while Account B's instances will be charged at the standard on-demand rate.

AWS Organizations allows you to manage multiple AWS accounts centrally. This enables you to consolidate billing, apply policies across accounts, and manage access controls.

Resource groups allow you to organize AWS resources like EC2 instances and S3 buckets into logical groups. This makes it easier to manage and apply policies to these groups.
