My First Week Learning AWS: S3, S3 CLI, and Lambda Integration
Hi there! This is my first time writing an article, so I’m excited to share what I’ve learned this week on my AWS journey. If you're new to AWS like me, I hope this will be helpful, and maybe even inspire you to dive deeper into cloud technologies!
What I Learned This Week
1. Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service)
S3 is AWS’s service for storing and retrieving data in the cloud. I found it incredibly versatile. You can store anything from images to large datasets. It’s like a giant cloud-based storage drive, but with some really cool features like versioning, encryption, and fine-grained permissions.
2. S3 CLI (Command Line Interface)
The AWS CLI makes interacting with S3 much easier through the command line. At first, I was a bit intimidated, but after learning the basic commands like aws s3 cp for copying files, and aws s3 ls to list content, I realized how powerful and efficient the CLI can be. It makes managing S3 buckets so much faster than using the console.
3. Integrating S3 with Lambda
Lambda allows you to run code in response to events, without having to manage servers. I spent some time integrating S3 with Lambda to automate tasks, like triggering a Lambda function when a new file is uploaded to an S3 bucket. This opens up so many possibilities, like processing images, validating file uploads, or generating logs.
What’s Next?
Next week, I’m diving deeper into Lambda! I’ll be learning more advanced features and building an image-sharing app that combines S3 and Lambda. I’m really excited about this project and can’t wait to share what I learn!
If you're interested in cloud engineering or AWS, stay tuned for more of my learning journey. Feel free to share your own experiences or ask any questions in the comments!
also, I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone can provide me with a good roadmap to become a cloud engineer.
thanks for reading 🙏
