Most Used AWS Services

These are the most used cloud services of the AWS:

1. S3 – Your Cloud Hard Drive


Amazon S3 is like Google Drive but way more powerful. You can store anything photos, videos, documents, backups and it just stays there safely. Big companies love it because it's reliable, scalable, and you only pay for what you use. Super handy.

2. EC2 – Cloud Computers on Demand


Need a computer to run your app or test something? EC2 gives you one instantly, in the cloud. You choose the size, OS, and boom it’s ready. Use it when you need it, shut it down when you're done. It’s flexible and perfect for hosting websites or servers.

3. IAM – Who Can Do What


IAM stands for Identity and Access Management. It’s basically the security guard of your AWS account. It helps you control who can access what. You wouldn’t want someone deleting your entire app by mistake, right? IAM makes sure the right people have the right access.

4. Lambda – Code Without Servers


With AWS Lambda, you just upload your code and AWS runs it when it’s needed. No servers, no maintenance. It’s great for small tasks, automation, or anything that runs in response to an event like uploading a file or clicking a button.

5. RDS – Databases Made Easy


RDS is like a plug-and-play database service. Want MySQL or PostgreSQL without the headache of managing it? RDS sets it up, handles backups, updates, and scaling all for you. It saves a ton of time and effort.

6. Route 53 – Where Your Website Lives



Route 53 sounds fancy, but it’s just AWS’s way of making sure people find your website. It helps route traffic to the right place when someone types your domain. It also helps you manage domains and check if your app is working properly.

7. CloudFront – Speed Booster for Your Site


If someone far away visits your website, it might load slowly. CloudFront fixes that by storing your content in data centers around the world, so everyone gets a fast experience. It’s like giving your website a global upgrade.

8. CloudWatch – Your AWS Dashboard


Want to know how your servers are doing? CloudWatch shows you everything performance, logs, errors, and even costs. It’s like your AWS fitness tracker, keeping an eye on things so you don’t have to.

9. Secrets Manager – Safe Spot for Sensitive Stuff


Tired of storing passwords or API keys in random places? Secrets Manager keeps them safe, encrypted, and easily accessible for your apps. No more risky .env files lying around.

10. CloudFormation – Build Your Setup with Code


Instead of clicking around the AWS dashboard to set things up, CloudFormation lets you write out your setup like a recipe. You describe what you need servers, databases, networks and AWS builds it all automatically. It’s a huge time-saver.

  What’s the Buzz About DevOps? Alright, let’s keep it simple. If you’ve ever worked in tech—or even just talked to someone who does you’ve probably heard the word DevOps thrown around like it’s magic. But what really is it? Let’s break it down. 🛠 Dev + Ops = DevOps? Yes, that’s literally what the word means. Dev = Development. Ops = Operations. In the old-school way of doing things, developers (the code wizards) would write the code, and then throw it over to the operations folks (the system warriors) to run it. They worked in silos. Not ideal. DevOps came in to break those walls . A Culture, Not Just a Tool People think DevOps is just about tools. It’s not. It’s a mindset —a way of working where dev and ops collaborate closely. It’s about speeding things up without breaking stuff. Imagine launching features faster, fixing bugs quicker, and keeping systems more stable—all at the same time. That’s the DevOps dream. Automate, Test, Repeat A big part of DevOps is auto...

  Know the CI/CD – The Heartbeat of Modern Development In the ever-evolving realm of software development, there's a silent hero that keeps the code flowing smoothly from the fingertips of developers to the live production environments – CI/CD . If you're not familiar with these two letters repeated twice, it's time to dive in and understand why CI/CD is more than just tech jargon. What is CI/CD, Anyway? To put it simply, CI/CD stands for Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (or Delivery depending on the context). Think of it as an automated assembly line in a software factory. Instead of writing code, tossing it over to the testers, and praying it doesn’t explode in production, CI/CD allows for frequent and smooth delivery with the help of automation.                                                             ...
