“With AWS, you can build your ideas. With this book, you can find easy to implement solutions to many common requirements in areas such as networking, security, and databases. By just scrolling through the table of contents, I had a few ideas on things to do to simplify some of my recurring activities and operations. The AI/ML section provides quick tips for using fully managed services to do things such as detecting text in a video. The account management includes some tips that you should look at if you have a production environment. A solid companion to improve the way you use AWS.”
— Danilo Poccia,
Chief Evangelist (EMEA) Amazon Web Services
“There’s something sorely missing from official AWS documentation: a sense of reality. Most of us aren’t attempting to win points for collecting as many AWS services as we can; we’re trying to complete a task somewhere that isn’t a whiteboard. AWS Cookbook speaks to real users with a collection of recipes and pragmatic examples we can all benefit from.”
— Corey Quinn,
Chief Cloud Economist, The Duckbill Group
“Inside you’ll find a great deal of information on typical AWS use cases plus a reference implementation that’s easy to follow. If you like to learn AWS concepts in a practice-driven, example-based, hands-on manner, I highly recommend this book.”
— Gaurav Raje,
author of Security and Microservice Architecture on AWS
“I’ve never read a book packed so densely with ninja level tips and tricks for AWS; it’s the book I wish I had five years ago. If you use AWS day to day, you need this in your toolkit, not only for the things it contains but also for the inspiration it provides. In my view, it’s the best AWS book there is.”

Product Description
This practical guide provides over 70 self-contained recipes to help you creatively solve common AWS challenges you’ll encounter on your cloud journey.

Each recipe also includes a discussion to provide context, explain the approach, and challenge you to explore the possibilities further.
