Abstract
In recent years, IT professionals have frequently used the term cloud computing to refer to the practice of using remote serviers to store, manage, and process data. However, the most common term is Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS has changed the working methodology of the application/system by providing various services that can be integrated into our applications and systems. It allows developers to focus on the core business logic while services such as infrastructure management, database administration, server management, high availability, cost minimization, and so on, are being handled by AWS.
