В AWS здорово то, что этой платформе уже почти двадцать лет. Печально в AWS то… что ей уже почти двадцать лет. Если вы уже долгое время пользуетесь ею, то вам может быть сложно заметить тем изменений её «фундаментальных» сервисов. Хуже того: даже если вы относительный новичок в AWS, вам всё равно довольно легко найти устаревшие посты, объясняющие всё так, как было раньше, но не сейчас. В своей статье я перечислю... Read more ›
