Introduction to Amazon EC2
John Phillips, Amazon Web Services
July 10th 2014
What we’ll cover:
• Amazon EC2– Brief history
– Key functionality
– Companion services
• Demo
• Q&A
What is Amazon EC2?
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud
Elastic Virtual servers in the cloud
A Brief look back…
Amazon EC2: Seven Years Young
Amazon EC2 – Seven years ago
• Single instance family and size– m1.small (1 vCPU, 1.7 GiB RAM, 160 GB storage)
• Linux only
• On Demand pricing only
• No AWS Management Console
• No EBS
• No Elastic IPs
• No Auto Scaling
• No Elastic Load Balancing
• No VPCAmazon EC2
Since then• Many new instance families and sizes
– M1, M3, T1, T2, M2, CR1, R3, C1, CC1, CC2, C3, CG1, G2, HS1, HI1, I2
• Windows (and Enterprise Linux)
• Reserved Instances and Spot Instances
• AWS Management Console
• Elastic Block Store
• Elastic IP Addresses
• Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
• Auto Scaling
• Elastic Load Balancing
• Performance, security, manageability, and scalability improvements

Recent Instance Highlights
• T2 – lowest cost, general purpose instance
• R3 – Next generation memory optimized, up to 244 GiB
• I2 – Next generation I/O optimized (350,000+ random read IOPS)
• C3 – 2.8 GHz Intel Xeon E5-2680v2 (Ivy Bridge) CPUs (SSD)
• G2 – Next generation GPU instances, 1 NVIDIA GK104 GPU (Kepler)
• Enhanced networking
A choice of block storage options
• Locally attached, “instance storage”– Type/amount differs by instance
• Amazon EBS General Purpose (SSD)
• Amazon EBS Provisioned IOPS (SSD)
• Amazon EBS Magnetic
T2 and Amazon EC2 Free Tier
• T2 is a Burstable Performance Instance– Burstable Performance Instances provide a baseline level of CPU performance
with the ability to burst above the baseline.
– T2 instances are for workloads that don’t use the full CPU often or consistently,
but occasionally need to burst.
– Great for getting started on Amazon EC2
• Amazon EC2 Free Tier– 750 hours of Amazon EC2 Linux t2.micro instance usage (1 GiB of memory and
32-bit and 64-bit platform support)
Who uses EC2?
Using AWS, Dow Jones saved $40,000;
improves time-to-market by 30%
• Dow Jones & Company provides news and
business information for the global investment
market.
• Dow Jones needed to replace its Asian data
center with a flexible, cost-effective alternative
that allowed its staff to focus on building
products
• Moving its data center to AWS saved $40,000 in
hardware costs and enabled Dow Jones staff to
focus on creating revenue-producing
applications for the website
• One of the world's leading online travel
companies, providing leisure and business
travel to customers worldwide
• Expedia needed a global infrastructure to
support its commitment to create a great
experience for customers worldwide
• Using AWS, Expedia created a global
infrastructure for its critical applications while
reducing network latency to under 50
milliseconds and enabling a 230% CPU
consumption efficiency for data processing
Expedia uses AWS to run critical,
high volume applications globally
