AWS Cloud Computing Tutorial for Beginners

-
Complete tutorial for beginners on AWS. Also explained AWS security features.


1. What you can do with AWS

  • Store public or private data.
  • Host a static website. These websites use client-side technologies (such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) to display content that doesn't change frequently. A static website doesn't require server-side technologies (such as PHP and ASP.NET).
  • Host a dynamic website, or web app. These websites include classic three-tier applications, with web, application, and database tiers.
  • Support students or online training programs.
  • Process business and scientific data.
  • Handle peak loads.

2. AWS (Amazon Web services different features)


  • AWS Management Console A web interface. To get started, see the Getting Started with the AWS Management Console.
  • AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) Commands for a broad set of AWS products.To get started, see AWS Command Line Interface User Guide. Command Line Tools Commands for individual AWS products.
  • For more information, see Command Line Tools. AWS Software Development Kits (SDK) APIs that are specific to your programming language or platform. For more information, see SDKs.

Basics of AWS and its features explained for beginner cloud computing engineers.


Query APIs Low-level APIs that you access using HTTP requests. For more information, see the API documentation for each service. 


3. Global Security Features in AWS

  1. Physical access to AWS data centers is strictly controlled, monitored, and audited.
  2. Access to the AWS network is strictly controlled, monitored, and audited.
  3. You can manage the security credentials that enable users to access your AWS account using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM).You can create fine-grained permissions to AWS resources and apply them to users or groups of users.
  4. You can apply ACL-type permissions on your data and can also use encryption of data at rest.
  5. You can set up a virtual private cloud (VPC), which is a virtual network that is logically isolated from other virtual networks in the AWS cloud.You can control whether the network is directly routable to the Internet.
  6. You control and configure the operating system on your virtual server.
  7. You can set up a security group, which acts as a virtual firewall to control the inbound and outbound traffic for your virtual servers.
  8. You can specify a key pair when you launch your virtual server, which is used to encrypt your login information. When you log in to your virtual server, you must present the private key of the key pair to decrypt the login information.

Image
 In the world of data science, automation, and general programming, working with files is unavoidable. Whether you’re dealing with CSV reports, JSON APIs, Excel sheets, or text logs, Python provides rich and easy-to-use libraries for reading different file formats. In this guide, we’ll explore how to read different files in Python , with code examples and best practices. 1. Reading Text Files ( .txt ) Text files are the simplest form of files. Python’s built-in open() function handles them effortlessly. Example: # Open and read a text file with open ( "sample.txt" , "r" ) as file: content = file.read() print (content) Explanation: "r" mode means read . with open() automatically closes the file when done. Best Practice: Always use with to handle files to avoid memory leaks. 2. Reading CSV Files ( .csv ) CSV files are widely used for storing tabular data. Python has a built-in csv module and a powerful pandas library. Using cs...

SQL Query: 3 Methods for Calculating Cumulative SUM

-
Image
SQL provides various constructs for calculating cumulative sums, offering flexibility and efficiency in data analysis. In this article, we explore three distinct SQL queries that facilitate the computation of cumulative sums. Each query leverages different SQL constructs to achieve the desired outcome, catering to diverse analytical needs and preferences. Using Window Functions (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) SELECT id, value, SUM(value) OVER (ORDER BY id) AS cumulative_sum  FROM your_table; This query uses the SUM() window function with the OVER clause to calculate the cumulative sum of the value column ordered by the id column. Using Subqueries (e.g., MySQL, SQLite): SELECT t1.id, t1.value, SUM(t2.value) AS cumulative_sum FROM your_table t1 JOIN your_table t2 ON t1.id >= t2.id GROUP BY t1.id, t1.value ORDER BY t1.id; This query uses a self-join to calculate the cumulative sum. It joins the table with itself, matching rows where the id in the first table is greater than...
