The core services, like EC2, VPC, Route 53, RDS, etc, are worth learning, but the rest are just a mountain of sh**t of AWS-implementations of FOSS tools. You will experience serious vendor lock-in if you use all their stuff. Keep it simple and learn to manage some of your own stuff so you won't be forever beholden to Bezos.

@@janakakumara3836 There are quite a few "mature" services on AWS. Most of AWS works great, and you wouldn't be initially limiting yourself by using them, for the most part. The question is, which do you really need? It's nice to have AWS manage so much for you with a nice little web UI or through their API. However, could you get away with using EC2 and running your own stack with scalability and/or load balancing? Maybe not if you don't have a DevOps sort of person to help. And that's why AWS makes so much money. It's cheaper in the short-run to spend more money on their hosted services than to learn or hire someone to help you architect a legit infrastructure for your needs. As you and your product/service evolve, you would want to move away from their increasingly expensive managed services. Then again, it will cost more and more to move away as time goes on. It's a catch-22.

This is a very hard pill to swallow for the pro cloud crowd. The lock-in is real and the way out is difficult. Depending on what you're doing, you might be able to get away with only doing a few things (relatively) to achieve a somewhat agnostic architecture (like using an additional cloud service that bridges the gap for you, which exist but atm only for a few use-cases). Otherwise, Godspeed.

AWS was liberal conservatice and christian democratic. In 1997-2001 AWS was a part of Polish government (in 1997-2000 allied with the Liberal Union). AWS got splitted into the Law and Justice party and Civic Platform, today's 2 main rivals. It was also split into some other parties like the Centre Party, Republican Social Party, Initiative for Poland, Sovereignty-Labour-Justice and Poland Together. Later some of this parties got transformed into the Agreement, Poland Plus, Poland Is The Most Important, United Poland, Republican Party and the Conservatists (that later became the Centre for Poland). *This was me and the AWS in 100 seconds*

Used AWS to host my site for a year while it was 'free'....cost me 50 cents/month, this is a super basic php site not even using a database. The first month after the free period jumped up to $27. As you can guess, I found a new home for my site the same day that bill came.

I love AWS, their UI is not confusing at all

Their docs are even better!

Pro-Tip: If you host stuff on AWS that exceeds the free-tier by just a couple of cents, you will still receive a bill but AWS doesn't want your money because the credit card fee would by higher for them than what AWS would be earning with you.

I used Firebase recently. A breeze to implement authentication, search functionality, storage, functions. But the problem is I still haven't seen one job ad for a developer that knows firebase. Why?

Firebase is fantastic but it is not used widely in commercial projects. There are a few reasons for this but I'd say one of the main ones is that as a product scales - it will require much finer controls of the back end resources than firebase allows. As a "Back end as a service" - firebase makes a lot of the infrastructure decisions for you which might not be right for a business in the long run. More generally - firebase cant really be compared to AWS - there is an AWS service equivalent to firebase called AWS Amplify which would make for a better comparison (I personally prefer Firebase)

If you think AWS UI is confusing, you should try Azure to see how bad it can get.

Nah - Azure is WAAY better than AWS when it comes to ui. Prove your point with some facts. With Azure I can find and learn about any service way easier and it looks better on the eyes to process. App services, VMs, Azure active directory, SQL, etc it all looks way better than the AWS equivalent. Even GCP looks better.

Switched from AWS to GCP several years ago and never looked back. GCP doesn't have the million services, but we could do everything with GCP we needed. GCP while not perfect and has some WTF aspects it was a breath of a fresh air from AWS. AWS felt like one of those products where the dev was like "dude, it's so simple... Just tug your right ear while jumping on your left foot, click these two buttons after writing some obscure inputs and that's how you make the service work" and you're like "uh huh, and why do I have to figure all this shit out for a basic config?" Maybe it's got better in recent years but GCP never gave us a good reason to go back and look. Azure will be the next platform we will test in depth when we feel like a change is worth the effort because I am still traumatized from years of AWS hell.

Azure sucks. Agree with your assessment of AWS' complexity, and Azure is definitely simpler in many ways, but it's also buggy. In AWS, if something doesn't work, you probably fucked up. In Azure, if something doesn't work, they probably fucked up and their customer service is abysmal. I say this as someone who had a pull request merged to fix a bug in their shitty open source code for Azure DevOps Pipelines. I wrote the fucking fix for them and they still took 8 months to review and merge.

Azure is fucking garbage, their instance tiers, prices and sizes are laughable, their services are a mess of outdated shit and their documentation is just marketing documents that link you around in a loop while telling you how great azure is but not how to use it.

I saw someone complaining about python symbol cluttering because they felt like (-3)**2 where way to many symbols so I came up with this masterpiece: for i in range(10): print(i) if any(filter(lambda x: x in range(i), map(lambda x: x**x, [y // 2 for y in range(randint(10, 100))]))) else 2 That is all just a single line of valid python code (excluding the from random import randint lol) And it reminded me of this Could you do a python for the haters video?

This is a little discouraging as I’m learning AWS to get cloud certified :( should I look into another option?

You will be fine. Lots of job opportunities with large corporations with AWS. The other choices are Azure & GCP certified. Less job opportunities and harder exams to pass for GCP. The biggest advantages are easier naming conventions and easier to use cloud services.

You know what's so great about AWS? lets say the AWS servers are under attack (for example, a DDOS or a hacking attack). not only will your website go down but millions of others will go down too bringing down the entire internet as a whole. this is so much better than running your own server!

Exactly. This is how the internet was designed: to keep everything as centralized as possible. Where we go one, we go all.

Not only the icons and names of the services don’t make any sense, but even some descriptions are not clarifying anything but throwing me more words I do not understand 😅 Not mention the UI, I don’t know if Amazon will ever update their UI…

Honestly if you start up cloud, just go GCP. Much better Dev experience and not different in pricing.
