This document outlines a project on Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud computing platform. It begins with an introduction to AWS, describing how it was launched in 2006 as a cloud services platform providing on-demand computing resources. The document then covers AWS' global infrastructure, including availability zones and edge locations. It also details several AWS cloud services such as EC2, S3, IAM, and CloudFront. Features and benefits of AWS like scalability, security and pay-as-you-go pricing model are highlighted. Finally, the document analyzes an example cloud architecture usage case and provides a critical evaluation of AWS outages.

- 27. Conclusion & Critical Evaluation AWS suffers from many outages: On April 20, 2011, EBS service became "stuck" and were unable to read/write requests. On June 29, 2012, several websites were taken offline, storm in in NorthernVirginia. On October 22, 2012, a major outage occurred. 1) AWS should ensure resolving these problems without outage happens. 2)AWS should focus on building tools that will make application plugging to the cloud easily. 27
