Programming Amazon Web Services: S3, EC2, SQS, FPS, and SimpleDB

Building on the success of its storefront and fulfillment services,
Amazon now allows businesses to "rent" computing power, data storage and
bandwidth on its vast network platform. This book demonstrates how
developers working with small- to mid-sized companies can take advantage
of Amazon Web Services (AWS) such as the Simple Storage Service (S3),
Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Simple Queue Service (SQS), Flexible
Payments Service (FPS), and SimpleDB to build web-scale business
applications. With AWS, Amazon offers a new paradigm for IT
infrastructure: use what you need, as you need it, and pay as you go.
Programming Web Services explains how you can access Amazon's open APIs
to store and run applications, rather than spend precious time and
resources building your own. With this book, you'll learn all the
technical details you need to:

- Store and retrieve any amount of data using application servers,
unlimited data storage, and bandwidth with the Amazon S3 service
- Buy computing time using Amazon EC2's interface to requisition
machines, load them with an application environment, manage access
permissions, and run your image using as many or few systems as needed
- Use Amazon's web-scale messaging infrastructure to store messages as
they travel between computers with Amazon SQS
- Leverage the Amazon FPS service to structure payment instructions
and allow the movement of money between any two entities, humans or
computers
- Create and store multiple data sets, query your data easily, and
return the results using Amazon SimpleDB.
- Scale up or down at a moment's notice, using these services to
employ as much time and space as you need Whether you're starting a new
online business, need to ramp up existing services, or require an
offsite backup for your home, Programming Web Services gives you the
background and the practical knowledge you need to start using AWS.
Other books explain how to build web services. This book teaches
businesses how to take make use of existing services from an established
technology leader.
