-
Not only do they bring together consumers and producers and create a valuable network
​
-
Also solve countless connection and efficiency issues.
-
If you're juggling dozens of marketing tools, consider working with a platform to help streamline your tools, teams, data, and processes.
What makes a good platform?
In our view, the success of a platform strategy is determined by three factors:
​
-
Connection: how easily others can plug into the platform to share and transact.
​​
-
Gravity: how well the platform attracts participants, both producers, and consumers.
-
Flow: how well the platform fosters the exchange and co-creation of value.
Ano Ang Pagkakaiba Sa Pagitan Ng Isang
Application And Platform
The Application
​
-
An application is computer software designed to help a user perform specific tasks.
​​
-
The web application requires a web server to manage requests from the client, an application server to perform the tasks requested, and, sometimes, a database to store the information.
-
The user triggers a request to the webserver over the Internet, either through a web browser or the application's user interface.
The Platform
-
A computing platform includes a hardware architecture and a software framework that allow application software to run—for example, the operating system and programming languages
​​
-
Is a business model that creates value by facilitating exchanges between two or more interdependent groups, usually consumers and producers. In order to make these exchanges happen, platforms harness and create large, scalable networks of users and resources that can be accessed on-demand.

What Makes AWS Different From Other Clouds?
​
AWS has significantly more services, and more features within those services, than any other cloud provider–from infrastructure technologies like compute, storage, and databases, networking–to emerging technologies, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, data lakes, and analytics, and IoT or Internet of Things and much more.
​
Who's Using Amazon Web Services?
​
Who are the biggest AWS users, and what kind of workloads are they using AWS for? Here's a spoiler: If you're looking at AWS for enterprise-level deployment, you have plenty of company, and if your enterprise is already using AWS, you're in very good company indeed.
​
A Look at AWS Users
​
According to Amazon, the number of active AWS users exceeds 1,000,000.
While small and mid-size companies make up the majority of that user base, recent polls by private consulting firms suggest that enterprise-scale users make up at least 10% of that total.

Putting AWS to Use
​
Now that you have a better understanding of the different types of AWS customers, you’re probably wondering how they actually use the platform?

To Handle Millions of Transactions
on Global Scale Per Second
​
"Below are the services used by our company"
The Amazon EC2
​
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) provides scalable computing capacity in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud.
Using Amazon EC2 eliminates your need to invest in hardware upfront, so you can develop and deploy applications faster.
You can use Amazon EC2 to launch as many or as few virtual servers as you need, configure security and networking, and manage storage.
Amazon EC2 enables you to scale up or down to handle changes in requirements or spikes in popularity, reducing your need to forecast traffic.
​
The Elastic Load Balancing
​
Elastic Load Balancing automatically distributes incoming application traffic across multiple targets, such as Amazon EC2 instances, containers, IP addresses, and Lambda functions.
It can handle the varying load of your application traffic in a single Availability Zone or across multiple Availability Zones.
Elastic Load Balancing offers three types of load balancers that all feature the high availability, automatic scaling, and robust security necessary to make your applications fault-tolerant.
The Amazon RDS
​
Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) is a web service that makes it easier to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the AWS Cloud.
It provides cost-efficient, resizable capacity for an industry-standard relational database and manages common database administration tasks.
The Amazon S3
​
Amazon Simple Storage Service is storage for the Internet. It is designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers.
Amazon S3 has a simple web services interface that you can use to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web.
It gives any developer access to the same highly scalable, reliable, fast, inexpensive data storage infrastructure that Amazon uses to run its own global network of web sites. The service aims to maximize benefits of scale and to pass those benefits on to developers
The Amazon Route 53
​
Amazon Route 53 is a highly available and scalable Domain Name System (DNS) web service.
You can use Route 53 to perform three main functions in any combination: domain registration, DNS routing, and health checking.
The AWS Certificate Manager
​
AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) handles the complexity of creating, storing, and renewing public and private SSL/TLS X.509 certificates and keys that protect your AWS websites and applications.
You can provide certificates for supported AWS services either by issuing them directly with ACM or by importing third-party certificates into the ACM management system.
ACM certificates can secure singular domain names, multiple specific domain names, wildcard domains, or combinations of these.
ACM wildcard certificates can protect an unlimited number of subdomains. You can also export a private ACM certificate and encrypted private key to use anywhere.
The Amazon CloudWatch
​
Amazon CloudWatch monitors your Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources and the applications you run on AWS in real-time.
You can use CloudWatch to collect and track metrics, which are variables you can measure for your resources and applications.
The Amazon Simple Queue Service
Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) is a reliable, highly scalable hosted queue for storing messages as they travel between applications or micro-services.
Amazon SQS moves data between distributed application components and helps you decouple these components.
The Amazon SES
​
Amazon SES is an email platform that provides an easy, cost-effective way for you to send and receive email using your own email addresses and domains.
​
The AWS LAMBDA
AWS Lambda
AWS Lambda is a compute service that lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers. AWS Lambda executes your code only when needed and scales automatically, from a few requests per day to thousands per second.
You pay only for the compute time you consume - there is no charge when your code is not running. With AWS Lambda, you can run code for virtually any type of application or backend service - all with zero administration.
AWS Lambda runs your code on a high-availability compute infrastructure and performs all of the administration of the compute resources, including server and operating system maintenance, capacity provisioning and automatic scaling, code monitoring and logging. All you need to do is supply your code in one of the languages that AWS Lambda supports.
The Amazon API Gateway (web-socket & REST API)
​
Amazon API Gateway is an AWS service for creating, publishing, maintaining, monitoring, and securing REST, HTTP, and WebSocket APIs at any scale. API developers can create APIs that access AWS or other web services, as well as data stored in the AWS Cloud. As an API Gateway API developer, you can create APIs for use in your own client applications. Or you can make your APIs available to third-party app developers.
The Amazon DynamoDB
​
Amazon DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service that provides fast and predictable performance with seamless scalability. DynamoDB lets you offload the administrative burdens of operating and scaling a distributed database so that you don't have to worry about hardware provisioning, setup and configuration, replication, software patching, or cluster scaling. DynamoDB also offers encryption at rest, which eliminates the operational burden and complexity involved in protecting sensitive data.
The Deep Learning on AWS
​
Deep Learning on AWS
Today, deep learning is at the forefront of machine learning techniques applied across a broad set of business verticals. Driven by their highly flexible nature, neural networks have pushed the boundary of what is possible to a point where they outperform humans in a variety of tasks, such as classifying objects in images and mastering video games in a matter of hours.
