Build scalable, cost-effective, high-performance, and secure architectures using AWS Outposts, AWS Local Zones, AWS Wavelength, and AWS Snow services along with their best practices and examples Key Features Understand the opportunities and challenges presented by the exponential growth of connected devices Leverage edge compute services from AWS to extend your applications to wherever they are needed Guided tutorials for building an IIoT gateway and a distributed edge application with AWS services Book DescriptionExplosion in the number of connected devices at the edge in the past few years has driven organizations to capitalize on the opportunities presented by the massive amounts of data generated by these devices. However, in doing so, they have faced challenges which require significant changes in their application architectures. This book will acquaint you with edge computing fundamentals, the constraints and risks to consider while selecting a solution to operate in this domain, and how AWS delivers a comprehensive suite of edge computing services to overcome these challenges. You’lll gain a deep understanding of when and how to use AWS Outposts, AWS Wavelength, AWS Local Zones, AWS Snow family and AWS IoT Greengrass. Use cases for each are thoroughly explored and the technical requirements and architectural patterns are detailed alongside the practical implementation aspects. As you progress, you'll discover how these services work in real life with step-by-step examples using AWS CLI and AWS Console, while also delving into essential security and operational considerations for maximizing the value delivered by AWS services. After reading this book, you'll be equipped to create powerful edge computing architectures and efficiently tackle edge computing complex use cases involving multiple AWS services.What you will learn Overcome network challenges faced at the near and far edge Leverage services in 450+ points of presence at the edge of the AWS global backbone Deploy edge solutions in disconnected scenarios with AWS Snow family Build multi-access edge (MEC) solutions with 5G and AWS Wavelength Reduce latency for your users with AWS Local Zones Configure AWS Snowcone to be an IIoT gateway with AWS IoT Greengrass Extend your AWS VPC into your on-premise datacenter with AWS Outposts Deploy a distributed applications for core, near, and far edge cloud services Who this book is forThis book is designed for cloud architects, cloud engineers, solutions architects and IoT architects tasked with building edge compute solutions using AWS. It caters to those wishing to master the full range of edge computing services AWS offers. A basic understanding of AWS services and networking is assumed.
