Amazon Web Services in Action 3rd Edition out now! We are happy to announce the official launch of our new book Amazon Web Services in Action 3rd Edition. The 3rd edition contains a new chapter covering containers on AWS: Building modern architectures for the cloud: ECS, Fargate, and App Runner. The chapter starts with the simplest way to deploy containers on AWS: App Runner. After that, we dive into our favorite architecture consisting of ECS to orchestrate containers and Fargate providing a Serverless container infrastructure. Besides adding a new chapter, we have entirely rewritten chapter 15: Automating deployment: CodeDeploy, CloudFormation, and Packer. Automating the deployments is key to success in the cloud. Therefore, chapter 15 introduces three different options:  CodeDeploy to roll out new versions of an application among a fleet of EC2 instances. Packer to bundle the latest version of an application into an AMI. CloudFormation to orchestrate rolling updates of EC2 instances managed by an auto-scaling group.

ElastiCache vs. MemoryDB + SLA 99.99% + Terraform ignore_tags

We are two brothers focusing 100% on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Every other week, one of us prepares the topic of the podcast. The topic is not known to the other one, which results in surprising conversations about all things AWS.Typically, we are covering the following topics: DevOps, Serverless, Container, Security, Infrastructure as Code, Container, Continuous Deployment, S3, EC2, RDS, VPC, IAM, VPC, and many more.

This is the most useful podcast I’ve found that goes over the nuts and bolts of building and running on top of AWS.

Useful

Many sources of information on aspects of aws are good to be aware of and this is one of them. The episodes are not long and contain just enough info to make you aware of something and then research later if you need to.

Pitfalls That You Should Avoid When Designing A Network ArchitectureNewsletter Every week, we write about all things AWS. For example, we unbox or review new AWS services.

Subscribe to our newsletter for free! Notes Don't miss our blog post Advanced AWS Networking: Pitfalls That You Should Avoid, the written version of this podcast episode. AWS offers shiny and powerful networking services. However, you should know about the pitfalls when designing advanced networking architectures for AWS. I will share some pitfalls that came to my attention when consulting clients to get the most out of AWS. You will learn how to answer the following questions: VPC Peering or Transit Gateway? A Transit Gateway simplifies peering VPCs. However, there is a baseline costs of $36.00 per month for each VPC attached to the Transit Gateway. NAT Gateway or Public Subnet? Adding NAT Gateways to your architecture costs $96.00 per month for 3 availability zones. Also, the costs for outbound network traffic will increase by 50%. From a economical point of view it makes sense to place workloads with high outgoing network throughput into public subnets. VPC Endpoints or NAT Gateway? Always add VPC Endpoints for S3 and DynamoDB. But do the math, when adding VPC Endpoints for other AWS services to your network. Using a NAT Gateway might be cheaper. CloudFront or Akamai, Cloudflare, Fastly …? When choosing a CDN provider besides CloudFront, make sure you have taken into account the additional costs for outbound traffic. Route 53 Resolver or Public Hosted Zone? Share Route 53 Outbound Resolvers between VPCs and AWS accounts to reduce costs. Think about using Public Hosted Zones instead of paying $180.00 per month for an Route 53 Inbound Resolver.

However, you should know about the pitfalls when designing advanced networking architectures for AWS. I will share some pitfalls that came to my attention when consulting clients to get the most out of AWS.</p> <p>You will learn how to answer the following questions:</p> <h2>VPC Peering or Transit Gateway?</h2> <p>A Transit Gateway simplifies peering VPCs. However, there is a baseline costs of $36.00 per month for each VPC attached to the Transit Gateway.</p> <h2>NAT Gateway or Public Subnet?</h2> <p>Adding NAT Gateways to your architecture costs $96.00 per month for 3 availability zones. Also, the costs for outbound network traffic will increase by 50%. From a economical point of view it makes sense to place workloads with high outgoing network throughput into public subnets.</p> <h2>VPC Endpoints or NAT Gateway?</h2> <p>Always add VPC Endpoints for S3 and DynamoDB. But do the math, when adding VPC Endpoints for other AWS services to your network. Using a NAT Gateway might be cheaper.</p> <h2>CloudFront or Akamai, Cloudflare, Fastly …?</h2> <p>When choosing a CDN provider besides CloudFront, make sure you have taken into account the additional costs for outbound traffic.</p> <h2>Route 53 Resolver or Public Hosted Zone?</h2> <p>Share Route 53 Outbound Resolvers between VPCs and AWS accounts to reduce costs. Think about using Public Hosted Zones instead of paying $180.00 per month for an Route 53 Inbound Resolver.</p> <p><strong>Amazon Web Services in Action</strong> a comprehensive introduction to computing, storing, and networking in the AWS cloud.
