I am going through a self learning course on Amazon Web Services (AWS) platform. I will to jotting down my notes in series of posts on different services that AWS offers. Lets get started.
This will be the introduction part 1 where I will be covering the basic concepts of AWS and all the services a very high level.


AWS Global Infrastructure

Region: A region is a physical geographic location which contains two (or more) availability zones.

Availability Zone (AZ): Availability zone is simply a data center within a region. Each region consists of two (or more) availability zones.

AWS Edge Location: Edge locations are end points for AWS which are used for caching the content.


AWS global infrastructure is the base for all AWS services. All the AWS services are built on top the global infrastructure.
