What is the difference between an AZ and a VPC?

a VPC is deployed in a region and can be available across multiple availability zones in that region. An AZ is a logical zone in a region that has some physical isolation from another AZ in the region. A VPC is logical, AZ is physical. The difference between an AZ and a VPC is that the Virtual Private Cloud contains all of the availability zones in a specific AWS region. A Virtual Private Cloud is beneficial because you are able to add one or two subnets in each availability zone. It is also beneficial because by using a VPC, you are able to add subnets to a local zone that may be closer to your end users. A local zone allows your end zones to start applications that need single digit latencies in milliseconds. By using the Virtual Private Cloud, you can use local zones which will give you faster latency speeds. Availability zones are unique locations that are made to be kept away from failures in other availability zones. They may not be as close to you as a local zone is, so choosing to use the availability zone instead of the local zone through the Virtual Private Cloud will give you slower latency speeds.

What is the difference between an Identity-based Policy and a Resource-based Policy

An Identity-Based Policy is a JSON permission policy document that can be attached to a user, role or group of users. These types of policies control what actions an user or a role can do, which resources that have access to and under what conditions they can do them. A Resource-Based policy while it may be a JSON policy document like an Identity-Based Policy, it is different because you attach them to a resource which allows a specific permission to do their desired action. Unlike Identity-Based Policies, Resource-Based Policies are only Inline policies and not managed resources-based policies. This means that they are policies created and managed by you to be placed into a single user, group or role.

What are the differences between File, Block, and Object Storage?

File Storage allows for files to be organized and arranged in a hierarchy structure. This allows for it to be easiest for the user to access these files. This is advantageous because the files can be shared and collaborated on, but File Storage is disadvantageous because there is a limit on the how much the data to grow. Block Storage divides data into blocks which can be stored for efficiency. This is beneficial because it is faster to access your data and can be retrieved from a variety of areas. It is not beneficial because there is a limitation to how much data can be split into blocks, and it is more expensive than others. Object Storage helps manage data and it helps allow for massive amounts of data to be stored. It is advantageous because it is highly accessible and users can instate policies to help reinforce data.

hat are the differences between the 5 EC2 Instance types (General Purpose, Compute Optimized, Memory Optimized, Accelerated Optimized, & Storage Optimized)?

General Purpose instances provide a balance of compute, memory and networking resources and can be used for a variety of diverse workloads. These are preferred when applications use these resources, such as in a web server or a code repository. Compute Optimized instances are ideal for compute bound applications that benefit from high performance processors. These instances are best for batch processing workloads, media transcoding, high performance web servers and other applications that require intense and rigorous computation. Memory Optimized instances are designed to deliver fast performance for workloads that process large data sets in memory. Accelerated Optimized Computing instances use hardware accelerators to perform functions, which includes graphics processing or data pattern matching. This is more efficient than software running on CPUs. Storage Optimized instances are designed for workloads that require access to large data sets on local storage. This is beneficial because they can deliver numerous low-latency, random I/O operations per second to applications.

Manage IAM Users and their access: You can create Users and assign them individual security credentials (access keys, passwords, and multi-factor authentication devices). You can manage permissions to control which operations a User can perform. Manage IAM Roles and their permissions: An IAM Role is similar to a User, in that it is an AWS identity with permission policies that determine what the identity can and cannot do in AWS. However, instead of being uniquely associated with one person, a Role is intended to be assumable by anyone who needs it. Manage federated users and their permissions: You can enable identity federation to allow existing users in your enterprise to access the AWS Management Console, to call AWS APIs and to access resources, without the need to create an IAM User for each identity.

What is the difference between the On-Demand, Reserve, Spot, and Dedicated instance purchase types? What are the default term options for a Reserve Instance?

On-Demand instance purchase types are the most expensive pricing tier. You pay for every hour that the instance is running regardless of if you are actually using it. This is beneficial for workloads that need to run for a limited time without interruption. Reserve instance purchase types are beneficial if your application has to run uninterrupted for more than a month at a time. Once you have this purchase type, it will be applied to any instance you launch in the specific AWS region. Spot instance purchase types are for workloads that do not need to run constantly and can live through shutdowns. This Is the cheapest option.Dedicated instance purchase types are kept single at the host level from instances that belong to other accounts. It is meant for a single customer and only them. The default term options for a reserved instance are one or three year terms. This can be paid upfront, partial upfront or not upfront at all. The more you pay at the beginning, the less it will cost overall.

The difference between an Account Root User and IAM User is that with the Account Root User you have full access to all of the resources that are in that account and that you are only allowed to use those resources that are allowed under the account that you have. But, with the IAM User, you have the ability to safely have access to AWS services and resources for any user within that AWS Account. Under IAM you can manage access to AWS services and user permissions to allow or deny an account's access to the AWS resources.

What is the difference between an IAM Policy and an IAM Permission?

The difference between an IAM Policy and an IAM permission is that an IAM Policy is something in AWS that when associated with an account or resource, it defines what permissions are available to it. These policies define what type of permissions are required for an account. An IAM permission is something that determines if an action is allowed or denied.These permissions grant access to a specific resource in AWS.

What are the difference between the different EBS volume types?

What is the difference between and what is the purpose of an IAM Group and IAM Role? and for what purpose

The purpose of a IAM Role is to define the limits of what is able to be accomplished within your AWS account. It is different from an IAM group because IAM Roles are mostly used by applications and services instead of people. The purpose of an IAM Group is to make it easier for your organization when you are adding more members to your AWS infrastructure. When using IAM groups, you are able to create someone an IAM user account and add them to a specific group and that user would automatically receive all of the permissions that are entitled to that group.

What is the purpose of a VPC and a NACL?

The purpose of a VPC is to allow you to launch Amazon Web Services into a virtual network that you have created. This virtual private cloud is only for your account. This resembles a network that would be used in your own data center. The VPC is isolated from other virtual networks in the AWS Cloud.The purpose of a NACL is to act as a firewall for directing incoming and outgoing traffic in one or more subnets. It is an optional layer of security to your VPC.

What is the purpose of the AWS Simple Monthly Calculator and the AWS TCO calculator ?

The purpose of the AWS Simple Monthly Calculator is to allow you to see the monthly cost of Amazon Web Services for you based on the applications and services that you use.
