    Study Notes

    AWS Services and Tools

    • AWS Storage Gateway: Connects on-premises storage with AWS S3. One of its interfaces is a file gateway. It allows seamless connection of on-premises applications to cloud-based storage, providing low-latency access to data in S3 while maintaining local performance. Centralized storage management is also possible.
    • Snowball Edge Devices: Data transfer within the same AWS region is free. Transferring data between regions or to other AWS services outside the same region incurs data transfer charges. Rental periods typically range from 10 days (storage optimized) to 30 days (compute optimized). Data transfer and AWS service costs are charged once the device is actively in use.
    • Amazon DynamoDB: Customers are responsible for access to DynamoDB tables, including configuring IAM permissions. This means customers are in charge of managing and controlling access to their DynamoDB tables.
    • EC2 Instances: AWS is responsible for the underlying physical infrastructure (where EC2 instances run). You control instance configuration, operating systems, database deployment on EC2 instances, and firewall rules. High availability at the database layer is the customer's responsibility.

    Tools for Visualizing and Managing Costs

    • AWS Cost Explorer: Visualizes, understands, and manages AWS spending and usage over time. A tool for exploring, understanding, and querying AWS resources.
    • AWS Pricing Calculator: Estimates AWS service costs based on configurations. Lacks detailed historical spending and usage insights. Used for estimating costs.
    • AWS Organizations: Manages multiple AWS accounts in an organization. Helpful for billing and cost allocation; not focused on detailed visualizations.
    • AWS Service Catalog: Helps manage and create catalogs of IT services approved for use in AWS. It supports consistent governance and compliance requirements, while allowing users to deploy only approved services.

    Study Material Caveat

    • Be cautious using examination question banks as your sole study source. They can be useful to gauge knowledge, but other material is necessary for comprehensive preparation. Success on the exam relies on using varied study resources.
