Summary of "AWS Interview Questions And Answers 2025 | Top 30 AWS Interview Questions | Intellipaat"
This video by Intellipaat provides a comprehensive guide to the top 30 AWS interview questions categorized into three difficulty levels: easy, medium, and hard. The content covers fundamental AWS concepts, services, architecture, security, cost optimization, and disaster recovery, with detailed explanations and analogies to simplify understanding.
Main Ideas, Concepts, and Lessons:
Introduction & Context
- Cloud adoption is rapidly growing globally, especially in India, China, and Japan.
- AWS launched in 2006 and currently leads the cloud market with the most compute and storage options.
- AWS-related job opportunities are abundant, with competitive salaries that grow significantly with experience.
- The video covers 30 frequently asked AWS interview questions divided into easy, medium, and hard modules.
Easy Module (Basic Concepts & Services)
-
What is AWS?
- AWS is a cloud computing platform offering on-demand infrastructure without on-premise hardware.
- Pay-as-you-go pricing.
- Popular services: EC2, Lambda (compute), S3, EBS (storage), RDS, DynamoDB (databases), Route 53 (DNS), IAM (security), SageMaker (ML).
-
Key Components of AWS+Amazon+S3+storage+course&tag=dtdgstoreid-21">Amazon S3
- Stores data in buckets (globally unique names).
- Objects inside buckets contain data + metadata.
- Keys uniquely identify objects (like file paths).
- Supports versioning and encryption (server/client-side).
-
Types of Cloud Computing Models
- IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): Rent raw infrastructure (e.g., EC2).
- PaaS (Platform as a Service): Rent a platform to deploy apps (e.g., Elastic Beanstalk).
- SaaS (Software as a Service): Use fully managed software (e.g., Office 365, Zoom).
-
AWS+Amazon+EC2+beginner+guide&tag=dtdgstoreid-21">Amazon EC2 Overview
- Virtual servers rented on-demand.
- Choose size, power, and pay only for usage.
-
Stopping vs Terminating EC2 Instances
- Stop: Temporarily shut down, instance persists, IP may change.
- Terminate: Delete instance and storage permanently.
-
Availability Zones and Regions
- Region: Geographically isolated area (like a city).
- Availability Zone: Isolated data centers within a region (like neighborhoods).
- AWS has 34 regions and 108 availability zones globally.
-
AWS+Elastic+Load+Balancer+tutorial+book&tag=dtdgstoreid-21">Elastic Load Balancer (ELB)
- Distributes incoming traffic across multiple servers.
- Ensures high availability and fault tolerance.
- Health checks route traffic only to healthy servers.
-
Horizontal vs Vertical Scaling
- Horizontal: Add/remove instances (scale out/in).
- Vertical: Increase/decrease instance capacity (scale up/down).
-
AWS+IAM+security+course&tag=dtdgstoreid-21">AWS IAM (Identity and Access Management)
- Controls who (users, roles) can access what (AWS resources).
- Provides granular permissions and temporary access.
-
Security Groups vs Network ACLs
- Security Groups: Stateful, instance-level firewall (like room-level security).
- Network ACLs: Stateless, subnet-level firewall (like building-level security).
- Security groups track allowed traffic; ACLs check rules on every request.
Medium Module (Intermediate Concepts)
-
Amazon Route 53
- DNS service translating domain names to IP addresses.
- Supports latency-based routing directing users to the nearest/least busy server.
- Ensures high availability and low latency.
-
AWS+Lambda+online+course&tag=dtdgstoreid-21">AWS Lambda
- Serverless compute service running code in response to triggers.
- Pay only for execution time.
- No server provisioning or management needed.
-
AWS CloudFormation
- Infrastructure as Code service.
- Create templates (JSON/YAML) to define and replicate AWS resources/configurations.
- Ensures consistent infrastructure deployment.
-
Difference Between Amazon SQS and SNS
- SQS: Message queuing service (one-to-one communication, FIFO).
- SNS: Pub/Sub notification service (one-to-many broadcasting).
- Often used together for reliable message delivery.
-
AWS+Amazon+RDS+database+course&tag=dtdgstoreid-21">Amazon RDS
- Managed relational database service.
- Automates patching, backups, scaling, monitoring, and high availability.
- Supports multiple database engines (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQL Server).
-
AWS Well-Architected Framework
- Best practices for building secure, reliable, efficient, and cost-effective systems.
- Five pillars: Operational Excellence, Security, Reliability, Performance Efficiency, Cost Optimization.
-
Elastic IP
- Static public IPv4 address that remains constant even if the instance is restarted.
- Prevents downtime caused by IP changes.
-
AWS Elastic Beanstalk
- PaaS for easy deployment and management of applications.
