AWS Lake Formation

AWS Lake Formation is a service that makes it easy to set up a secure data lake in days. A data lake
is a centralized, curated, and secured repository that stores all your data, both in its original form
and prepared for analysis. A data lake enables you to break down data silos and combine different
types of analytics to gain insights and guide better business decisions.

However, setting up and managing data lakes today involves a lot of manual, complicated, and
time-consuming tasks. This work includes loading data from diverse sources, monitoring those data
flows, setting up partitions, turning on encryption and managing keys, defining transformation
jobs and monitoring their operation, re-organizing data into a columnar format, configuring access
control settings, deduplicating redundant data, matching linked records, granting access to data
sets, and auditing access over time.

Creating a data lake with Lake Formation is as simple as defining where your data resides and what
data access and security policies you want to apply. Lake Formation then collects and catalogs data
from databases and object storage, moves the data into your new Amazon S3 data lake, cleans
and classifies data using ML algorithms, and secures access to your sensitive data. Your users can
then access a centralized catalog of data which describes available data sets and their appropriate
usage. Your users then leverage these data sets with their choice of analytics and ML services, such
as Amazon EMR for Apache Spark, Amazon Redshift, Amazon Athena, SageMaker AI, and Amazon
QuickSight.

Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK)

applications. With Amazon MSK, you can use Apache Kafka APIs to populate data lakes, stream
changes to and from databases, and power ML and analytics applications.

Apache Kafka clusters are challenging to setup, scale, and manage in production. When you run
Apache Kafka on your own, you need to provision servers, configure Apache Kafka manually,
replace servers when they fail, orchestrate server patches and upgrades, architect the cluster for
high availability, ensure data is durably stored and secured, setup monitoring and alarms, and
carefully plan scaling events to support load changes. Amazon MSK makes it easy for you to build
and run production applications on Apache Kafka without needing Apache Kafka infrastructure
management expertise. That means you spend less time managing infrastructure and more time
building applications.

AWS Application Cost Profiler

AWS Application Cost Profiler provides you the ability to track the consumption of shared AWS
resources used by software applications and report granular cost breakdown across tenant base.
You can achieve economies of scale with the shared infrastructure model, while still maintaining a
clear line of sight to detailed resource consumption information across multiple dimensions.

With the proportionate cost insights of shared AWS resources, organizations running applications
can establish the data foundation for accurate cost allocation model, and ISV selling applications
can better understand your profitability and customize pricing strategies for your end customers.

AWS Billing Conductor

AWS Billing Conductor is a fully managed service that can support the showback and chargeback
workflows of AWS Solution Providers and Enterprise customers. Using AWS Billing Conductor, you
can customize your monthly billing data. The console models the billing relationship between you
and your customers or business units. You can also customize a pro forma version of your billing
data each month to accurately show or charge back your customers.

AWS Billing Conductor doesn't change the way that you're billed by Amazon Web Services each
month. Instead, it provides you with a mechanism to configure, generate, and display rates to
certain customers over a given billing period. You can also use it to analyze the difference between
the rates you apply to your accounting groupings relative to your actual rates from AWS. As a result
of your AWS Billing Conductor configuration, the payer account can also see the custom rate that's
applied on the billing details page of the AWS Billing console, or configure a cost and usage report
per billing group.

You can configure the billing groups and pricing plans using the AWS Billing Conductor or the AWS
Billing Conductor API. For more information about AWS Billing Conductor service quotas, refer to
Quotas and restrictions.

AWS Cost Explorer

AWS Cost Explorer has an easy-to-use interface that lets you visualize, understand, and manage
your AWS costs and usage over time. Get started quickly by creating custom reports (including
charts and tabular data) that analyze cost and usage data, both at a high level (such as total costs
and usage across all accounts) and for highly-specific requests (such as m2.2xlarge costs within
account Y that are tagged “project: secretProject”).

AWS Budgets

AWS Budgets gives you the ability to set custom budgets that alert you when your costs or usage
exceed (or are forecasted to exceed) your budgeted amount. You can also use AWS Budgets to set
RI utilization or coverage targets and receive alerts when your utilization drops below the threshold
you define. RI alerts support Amazon EC2, Amazon RDS, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon ElastiCache
reservations.

Budgets can be tracked at the monthly, quarterly, or yearly level, and you can customize the
start and end dates. You can further refine your budget to track costs associated with multiple
dimensions, such as AWS service, linked account, tag, and others. Budget alerts can be sent via
email and/or Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic.

Budgets can be created and tracked from the AWS Budgets dashboard or via the AWS Budgets API.

AWS Cost and Usage Report

The AWS Cost and Usage Report is a single location for accessing comprehensive information
about your AWS costs and usage.

The AWS Cost and Usage Report lists AWS usage for each service category used by an account
and its IAM users in hourly or daily line items, as well as any tags that you have activated for cost
allocation purposes. You can also customize the AWS Cost and Usage Report to aggregate your
usage data to the daily or monthly level.

Reserved Instance (RI) reporting

AWS provides a number of RI-specific cost management solutions out-of-the-box to help you
better understand and manage your RIs. Using the RI Utilization and Coverage reports available
in AWS Cost Explorer, you can visualize your RI data at an aggregate level or inspect a particular

AWS Cost Explorer 30

Overview of Amazon Web Services AWS Whitepaper

RI subscription. To access the most detailed RI information available, you can leverage the AWS
Cost and Usage Report. You can also set a custom RI utilization target via AWS Budgets and receive
alerts when your utilization drops below the threshold you define.

Savings Plans

Savings Plans is a flexible pricing model offering lower prices compared to On-Demand pricing, in
exchange for a specific usage commitment (measured in $/hour) for a one or three-year period.
AWS offers three types of Savings Plans – Compute Savings Plans, Amazon EC2 Instance Savings
Plans, and Amazon SageMaker AI Savings Plans. Compute Savings Plans apply to usage across
Amazon EC2, AWS Lambda, and AWS Fargate. The Amazon EC2 Instance Savings Plans apply to
EC2 usage, and Amazon SageMaker AI Savings Plans apply to Amazon SageMaker AI usage. You can
easily sign up a one- or three-year term Savings Plans in AWS Cost Explorer and manage your plans
by taking advantage of recommendations, performance reporting, and budget alerts.

Amazon EC2

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides secure, resizable
compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers.

The simple web interface of Amazon EC2 allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal
friction. It provides you with complete control of your computing resources and lets you run on
Amazon’s proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 reduces the time required to obtain and
boot new server instances (called Amazon EC2 instances) to minutes, allowing you to quickly scale
capacity, both up and down, as your computing requirements change. Amazon EC2 changes the
economics of computing by allowing you to pay only for capacity that you actually use. Amazon
EC2 provides developers and system administrators the tools to build failure resilient applications
and isolate themselves from common failure scenarios.

Amazon EC2 35
Overview of Amazon Web Services AWS Whitepaper

Instance types

Amazon EC2 passes on to you the financial benefits of Amazon scale. You pay a very low rate for
the compute capacity you actually consume. For a more detailed description, refer to Amazon EC2
pricing.

Amazon EC2 instance types are named based on their family, generation, processor family,
additional capabilities, and size.

• On-Demand Instances — With On-Demand Instances, you pay for compute capacity by the hour
or the second depending on which instances you run. No longer-term commitments or upfront
payments are needed. You can increase or decrease your compute capacity depending on the
demands of your application and only pay the specified per hourly rates for the instance you use.
On-Demand Instances are recommended for:

• Users that prefer the low cost and flexibility of Amazon EC2 without any up-front payment or
long-term commitment

• Applications with short-term, spiky, or unpredictable workloads that cannot be interrupted

• Applications being developed or tested on Amazon EC2 for the first time

• Spot Instances —Spot Instances are available at up to a 90% discount compared to On-Demand
prices and let you take advantage of unused Amazon EC2 capacity in the AWS Cloud. You can
significantly reduce the cost of running your applications, grow your application’s compute
capacity and throughput for the same budget, and enable new types of cloud computing
applications. Spot Instances are recommended for:

• Applications that have flexible start and end times

• Applications that are only feasible at very low compute prices

• Users with urgent computing needs for large amounts of additional capacity

• Reserved Instances — Reserved Instances provide you with a significant discount (up to 72%)
compared to On-Demand Instance pricing. You have the flexibility to change families, operating
system types, and tenancies while benefiting from Reserved Instance pricing when you use
Convertible Reserved Instances.

• C7g Instances — C7g Instances, powered by the latest generation AWS Graviton3 processors,
provide the best price performance in Amazon EC2 for compute-intensive workloads. C7g
instances are ideal for high performance computing (HPC), batch processing, electronic design
automation (EDA), gaming, video encoding, scientific modeling, distributed analytics, CPU-based
ML inference, and ad serving.

Amazon EC2 36
Overview of Amazon Web Services AWS Whitepaper

• Inf2 Instances — Inf2 Instances are purpose--built for deep learning inference. They deliver
high performance at the lowest cost in Amazon EC2 for generative AI models, including large
language models (LLMs) and vision transformers. Inf2 instances are powered by AWS Inferentia2,
the second-generation AWS Inferentia accelerator.

• M7g Instances — M7g instances, powered by the latest generation AWS Graviton3 processors,
provide the best price performance in Amazon EC2 for general purpose workloads. M7g
instances are ideal for applications built on open-source software such as application servers,
microservices, gaming servers, mid-size data stores, and caching fleets.

• R7g Instances — R7g Instances, powered by the latest generation AWS Graviton3 processors,
provide the best price performance in Amazon EC2 for memory-intensive workloads. R7g
instances are ideal for memory-intensive workloads such as open-source databases, in-memory
caches, and near real-time big data analytics.

• Trn1 Instances — Trn1 Instances, powered by AWS Trainium accelerators, are purpose-built for
high-performance deep learning training of generative AI models, including LLMs and latent
diffusion models. Trn1 instances offer up to 50% cost-to-train savings over other comparable
Amazon EC2 instances.

• Savings Plans — Savings Plans are a flexible pricing model that offer low prices on EC2 and
Fargate usage, in exchange for a commitment to a consistent amount of usage (measured in $/
hour) for a one or three year term.

• Dedicated Hosts — A Dedicated Host is a physical EC2 server dedicated for your use. Dedicated
Hosts can help you reduce costs by allowing you to use your existing server-bound software
licenses, including Windows Server, Microsoft SQL Server, and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
(subject to your license terms), and can also help you meet compliance requirements.

Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling

Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling helps you maintain application availability and allows you to
automatically add or remove EC2 instances according to conditions you define. You can use the
fleet management features of Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling to maintain the health and availability
of your fleet. You can also use the dynamic and predictive scaling features of Amazon EC2 Auto
Scaling to add or remove EC2 instances. Dynamic scaling responds to changing demand and
predictive scaling automatically schedules the right number of EC2 instances based on predicted
demand. Dynamic scaling and predictive scaling can be used together to scale faster.

Amazon EC2 Image Builder

EC2 Image Builder simplifies the building, testing, and deployment of VMs and container images
for use on AWS or on-premises.

Keeping virtual machine (VM) and container images up-to-date can be time consuming, resource
intensive, and error-prone. Currently, customers either manually update and snapshot VMs or have
teams that build automation scripts to maintain images.

EC2 Image Builder significantly reduces the effort of keeping images up-to-date and secure by
providing a simple graphical interface, built-in automation, and AWS-provided security settings.
With Image Builder, there are no manual steps for updating an image nor do you have to build your
own automation pipeline.

Image Builder is offered at no cost, other than the cost of the underlying AWS resources used to
create, store, and share the images.

Amazon Lightsail

Amazon Lightsail is designed to be the easiest way to launch and manage a virtual private server
with AWS. Lightsail plans include everything you need to jumpstart your project – a VM, SSD-based
storage, data transfer, DNS management, and a static IP address – for a low, predictable price.

Amazon Linux 2023

Amazon Linux 2023 (AL2023) is our new Linux-based operating system for AWS that is designed
to provide a secure, stable, high-performance environment to develop and run your cloud
applications. AL2023 provides seamless integration with various AWS services and development
tools, and offers optimized performance for Amazon EC2 Graviton-based instances and AWS
Support at no additional licensing cost. Starting with AL2023, a new Amazon Linux major release
will be available every two years. This cadence provides you with a more predictable release cycle
and up to 5 years of support, making it easier for you to plan your upgrades.

AL2023 offers several improvements over Amazon Linux 2 (AL2). For example, AL2023 takes a
security-by-default approach to help improve your security posture with preconfigured security
policies, SELinux in permissive mode and IMDSv2 enabled by default, and the availability of kernel
live patching. With deterministic upgrades through versioned repositories, you can lock to a specific
version of the Amazon Linux package repository, giving you control over how and when you absorb

Overview of Amazon Web Services AWS Whitepaper

updates. With this capability, you can adhere to operational best practices more efficiently by
ensuring consistency between package versions and updates across your environment. For a full
comparison, refer to Comparing Amazon Linux 2 and Amazon Linux 2023.

Amazon Linux 2023 is generally available in all AWS Regions, including the AWS GovCloud (US) and
the China Regions.

AWS App Runner

AWS App Runner is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to quickly deploy
containerized web applications and APIs, at scale and with no prior infrastructure experience
required. Start with your source code or a container image. AWS App Runner automatically builds
and deploys the web application and load balances traffic with encryption. App Runner also scales
up or down automatically to meet your traffic needs. With App Runner, rather than thinking about
servers or scaling, you have more time to focus on your applications.

AWS Batch

AWS Batch enables developers, scientists, and engineers to easily and efficiently run hundreds
of thousands of batch computing jobs on AWS. AWS Batch dynamically provisions the optimal
quantity and type of compute resources (such as CPU or memory-optimized instances) based
on the volume and specific resource requirements of the batch jobs submitted. With AWS Batch,
there is no need to install and manage batch computing software or server clusters that you use
to run your jobs, allowing you to focus on analyzing results and solving problems. AWS Batch
plans, schedules, and runs your batch computing workloads across the full range of AWS compute
services and features, such as Amazon EC2 and Spot Instances.

AWS Elastic Beanstalk

AWS Elastic Beanstalk is an easy-to-use service for deploying and scaling web applications and
services developed with Java, .NET, PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, and Docker on familiar servers
such as Apache, Nginx, Passenger, and Internet Information Services (IIS).

You can simply upload your code, and AWS Elastic Beanstalk automatically handles the
deployment, from capacity provisioning, load balancing, and auto scaling to application health
monitoring. At the same time, you retain full control over the AWS resources powering your
application and can access the underlying resources at any time.

AWS App Runner 39

AWS Fargate

AWS Fargate is a compute engine for Amazon ECS that allows you to run containers without having
to manage servers or clusters. With AWS Fargate, you no longer have to provision, configure, and
scale clusters of VMs to run containers. This removes the need to choose server types, decide when
to scale your clusters, or optimize cluster packing. Fargate removes the need for you to interact
with or think about servers or clusters. Fargate lets you focus on designing and building your
applications instead of managing the infrastructure that runs them.

Amazon ECS has two modes: Fargate launch type and EC2 launch type. With Fargate launch
type, all you have to do is package your application in containers, specify the CPU and memory
requirements, define networking and IAM policies, and launch the application. EC2 launch type
allows you to have server-level, more granular control over the infrastructure that runs your
container applications. With EC2 launch type, you can use Amazon ECS to manage a cluster of
servers and schedule placement of containers on the servers. Amazon ECS keeps track of all the
CPU, memory and other resources in your cluster, and also finds the best server for a container to
run on based on your specified resource requirements.

You are responsible for provisioning, patching, and scaling clusters of servers. You can decide which
type of server to use, which applications and how many containers to run in a cluster to optimize
utilization, and when you should add or remove servers from a cluster. EC2 launch type gives you
more control of your server clusters and provides a broader range of customization options, which
might be required to support some specific applications or possible compliance and government
requirements.

AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers. You pay only for the
compute time you consume—there is no charge when your code is not running. With Lambda, you
can run code for virtually any type of application or backend service—all with zero administration.
Just upload your code, and Lambda takes care of everything required to run and scale your code
with high availability. You can set up your code to automatically run from other AWS services, or
you can call it directly from any web or mobile app.

AWS Serverless Application Repository

The AWS Serverless Application Repository enables you to quickly deploy code samples,
components, and complete applications for common use cases such as web and mobile backends,
