Amazon Web Services adds Static Web Hosting

3:56 AM nobody No comments

With the addition of static web hosting, Amazon Web Services now has the ability to host basic websites without the need for a virtual machine. In the past, customer were required to use Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) in conjunction with Simple Storage Services (S3). However, this is no longer necessary to host a non-dynamic website. Instead, websites can be directly mounted through S3.

A Split of Blog Hosting

The Chief Technology Officer of Amazon Web Services stated that the bulk of his personal blogs are hosted on S3 due to the reliability and scalability of the service. On the other hand, applications used to manage user comments, editing posts and serving blog searches are hosted on a low-powered virtual machine using EC2 technology.

Error Documentation

These static web pages are developed using HTML and therefore do not undergo server-side manipulation before being presented to the user. The S3 service will continue to allow users to use HTML error documentation as opposed to the automatically generated XML messages commonly seen on incorrect websites. In summary, this allows for the creation of 404 pages and other 400-level class errors.

Requirement for using this Service

Unfortunately, one of the largest requirements for use of this service is some technical knowledge. The primary users of this service will need to be knowledgeable of the Amazon Web Services console as well as the development kit in order to successfully mount their site onto the server. Other actions include setting access and permissions as well as modified specific parameters to ensure websites are correctly stored in the S3 buckets.

Luckily, each of these tasks can be easily learned for those that lack this technical knowledge. Simply reading through the manuals, tutorials or even asking customer support for help will allow for success.

Expansion of the Size

Another important action taken by Amazon Web Services is the expansion of the maximum size of any object in S3 from 5 gb to 5 tb. This is significant in that it allows for gigantic datasets to be hosted on the server.

Amazon Web Services took on the web hosting industry by storm when they first released their cloud hosting products. In only a short amount of time, they are re-revolutionizing the industry with a more efficient and powerful method of cloud hosting. This segment of Amazon continues to expand and amaze even those professionals in the industry.

I've read the preview - I'm buying this book: SWITCH - you should too!

5:39 PM nobody No comments

Here's the preview, click here

It's the same authors as "MADE TO STICK" the runaway bestseller in both message and story telling.

It looks like unlike Daniel Pink's new book "DRIVE" -- this one is written in the same engaging style!

Note: Daniel, I was crying tears at the technical part of "DRIVE" book, I'm so sorry that part was extremely hard to read. "Behavioral etc?"

So back to SWITCH -- I'm getting it pre-ordered. It's about how to become successful by copying others who are successful - but written in a thought-provoking manner.

So how about you? You getting that book? I'm not waiting for the bookstores to carry it, I'm getting it via AMAZON Bookstore.

Just to be clear, I purchased MADE TO STICK years ago. I've now reread it many times, emailed Dan Heath - one of the authors and got a reply too!

I get all of Daniel Pink's books but this one - Drive is a bit too technical for me. Don't worry, I'm not done with it yet. Maybe the chapter on behavioral experiments is the only bad egg. But yes I did buy Drive in the Philippines.

SWITCH -however looks to be the worthy followup to MADE TO STICK - a great book that I even created a whole 3 hour seminar about it and presented it inside my -then company - for free - so people can learn how to communicate better. Yes, I asked Dan Heath about that and he was happy that I was applying it in the corporate world. So here. Let's see who makes SWITCH appear in the Philippines first, the bookstores or my online order via AMAZON. Again if you want to READ an excerpt of the book it's here. Don't forget to click on the book above (the picture of a SWITCH) when you buy online!
