 Amazon Web Services
AWS (Amazon Web Services) is a comprehensive, evolving cloud computing
platform provided by Amazon that includes a mixture of infrastructure-as-a-
service (IaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and packaged-software-as-a-service
(SaaS) offerings. AWS services can offer an organization tools such as compute
power, database storage and content delivery services.
Amazon.com Web Services launched its first web services in 2002 from the
internal infrastructure that Amazon.com built to handle its online retail
operations. In 2006, it began offering its defining IaaS services. AWS was one of
the first companies to introduce a pay-as-you-go cloud computing model that
scales to provide users with compute, storage or throughput as needed.

 Amazon Web Services
AWS offers many different tools and solutions for enterprises and software
developers that can be used in data centers in up to 190 countries. Groups such as
government agencies, education institutions, non-profits and private
organizations can use AWS services.
How AWS works ?
AWS is separated into different services; each can be configured in different ways
based on the user's needs. Users can see configuration options and individual
server maps for an AWS service.

 Amazon Web Services: Communication
Services
Amazon API Gateway: Create, maintain, and secure APIs at any scale
Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to create,
publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs at any scale. APIs act as the "front door" for
applications to access data, business logic, or functionality from your backend services. Using
API Gateway, you can create RESTful APIs and WebSocket APIs that enable real-time two-way
communication applications. API Gateway supports containerized and serverless workloads, as
well as web applications.
API Gateway handles all the tasks involved in accepting and processing up to hundreds of
thousands of concurrent API calls, including traffic management, CORS support, authorization
and access control, throttling, monitoring, and API version management. API Gateway has no
minimum fees or startup costs. You pay for the API calls you receive and the amount of data
transferred out and, with the API Gateway tiered pricing model, you can reduce your cost as your
API usage scales.

API Types
RESTful APIs: Build RESTful APIs optimized for serverless workloads and HTTP backends
using HTTP APIs. HTTP APIs are the best choice for building APIs that only require API proxy
functionality. If your APIs require API proxy functionality and API management features in a
single solution, API Gateway also offers REST APIs.
WEBSOCKET APIs: Build real-time two-way communication applications, such as chat apps
and streaming dashboards, with WebSocket APIs. API Gateway maintains a persistent connection
to handle message transfer between your backend service and your clients.

 Google App Engine: Architecture, Core
Concepts, Application Life Cycle, Cost
Model, Observations
A scalable runtime environment, Google App Engine is mostly used to run Web applications.
These dynamic scales as demand change over time because of Google’s vast computing
infrastructure. Because it offers a secure execution environment in addition to a number of
services, App Engine makes it easier to develop scalable and high-performance Web apps.
Google’s applications will scale up and down in response to shifting demand. Croon tasks,
communications, scalable data stores, work queues, and in-memory caching are some of these
services.
The App Engine SDK facilitates the testing and professionalization of applications by emulating
the production runtime environment and allowing developers to design and test applications on
their own PCs. When an application is finished being produced, developers can quickly migrate it
to App Engine, put in place quotas to control the cost that is generated, and make the programmer
available to everyone. Python, Java, and Go are among the languages that are currently supported.
