Introduction to AWS

What is Public and Private cloud? How to create an AWS account?

What is cloud?

  • Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services, including storage, processing power, networking, databases, analytics, and more, over the internet, commonly referred to as "the cloud."

  • Instead of owning and maintaining physical hardware or servers, users can access and use computing resources on a pay-as-you-go basis from a cloud service provider.

Public cloud Vs. Private cloud

  • Public cloud: A cloud computing model where resources and services are provided over the internet by third-party providers, shared among multiple users on a pay-as-you-go basis.

  • Private cloud: A cloud computing model where computing resources are used exclusively by a single organization, either on-premises or provided by a dedicated third-party, offering more control and customization.
