Type the requested account information, and then click Continue.
Choose Personal or Professional.
Note: These two account types are identical in functionality. You can choose a personal account for your personal projects or choose professional for use within your company, an educational institution, or an organization.

In this short article, we will talk about different scenarios around Free Tier benefits when you use an AWS account with AWS Organizations. There are couple of different combinations possible:
In case of an independent AWS account, Free Tier benefit starts from the day of account creation.
If an AWS account is created via AWS Organization, then Free Tier benefits would start from the creation day of MASTER Account (in that Organization) and not the newly created (CHILD) AWS account.
Third scenario is, if you create an AWS account independently and later on add it to AWS Organization. E.g. Account1 is created on 01-March-2019, there is another AWS Organization in which the Master account was created on 11-Jan-2019.
When Account1 joins this Organization, the Free Tier benefit would be reset as if it is applicable from 11-Jan-2019.
In case, Account1 leaves the Organization, the start date for Free Tier benefit would again become 01-Mar-2019 for Account1.
In summary, while an AWS Account is part of an Organization, the Free Tier benefits would always be governed by the CREATION DATE of MASTER Account in that AWS Organization.
I would like to thank Jagadish for pointing this out in our Organizations video as shown below.
There is a reason I love AWS - they continue to impress you by bringing the features which customers demand. Here is a new feature which is going to make your life lot more easier with NLB.
Going forward, you do not have to keep SSL certificate on all your instances (behind NLB), rather you can terminate TLS connection at NLB. This saves you from lot of work and regular housekeeping.
If you have not setup NLB already, here is a video to show you step by step setup, you can watch and practice.
After this, it is recommended to spend 10 minutes to understand the benefits of this new feature, read it here.
AWS Transit Gateway (TGW) is here to change things in AWS networking big time. It solves the existing problems of VPC peering limits when you try to make multiple VPCs talk to each other. Different customers were making it work with Transit VPC till now, where they were maintaining a VPC in center and running third party software in this VPC which used to forward the traffic to other VPCs. But, managing Transit VPC was a big pain. With Transit Gateway, these maintenance activities go away.
In this very first video, we are discussing, along with a detailed demo, about the setup of TGW and how to use it to achieve different scenarios of VPC peering. There would be further videos to discuss more complex architecture as well.
Remember:
TGW is regional service.
TGW attachments will create an ENI in the subnet you have chosen.
TGW is fully managed service and there is a charge for using it. Pricing depends on two factors:
Number of attachments to TGW (per hour). Any partial hour is converted to full.
In this article, you will see a practical video where we will write a Lambda Function in PYTHON
which investigates your AWS account and deletes the resources which are costing you money.
You will also learn how to use boto3 Python library. A detailed interactive video with DEMO of every step.
In this post I want to inform you about some of the new activities I am trying to do.
In order to make you equipped with more practical scenarios, I have decided to start #AWS #Question #Scenario series in which I would post a question on LinkedIn and Youtube community page. After few hours or next day, I shall reply as well. All are invited to participate and polish the understanding further. I request you to connect with me on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/knowledgeindia
Also, the YouTube feed is great and it is enabled for our channel now. If you look at your Subscriptions in Youtube mobile app, you can see content from KnowledgeIndia. Or, you can also visit - https://www.youtube.com/user/knowledgeindia/community
A new series of video tutorials is coming which would be focused on practical scenarios only. Looking forward to hear from all of you. Check out the videos added recently and kindly help us by sharing the videos and content on LinkedIn.
