## Containers

**Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR)** is a fully-managed Docker container registry that makes it easy for developers to store, manage, and deploy Docker container images.

**Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)** is a highly scalable, high-performance container orchestration service that supports Docker containers and allows you to easily run and scale containerized applications on AWS. 

**Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS**) makes it easy to deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications using Kubernetes on AWS.

**AWS App2Container (A2C)** is a command-line tool for modernizing .NET and Java applications into containerized applications. A2C analyzes and builds an inventory of all applications running in virtual machines, on-premises, or in the cloud.

**Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA)** provides an integrated experience to use OpenShift. If you are already familiar with OpenShift, you can accelerate your application development process by leveraging familiar OpenShift APIs and tools for deployments on AWS.

**Amazon Aurora** is a MySQL and PostgreSQL compatible relational database engine that combines the speed and availability of high-end commercial databases with the simplicity and cost-eﬀectiveness of open source databases.
Amazon Aurora is up to five times faster than standard MySQL databases and three times faster than standard PostgreSQL databases. It provides the security, availability, and reliability of commercial databases at 1/10th the cost.

**Amazon DynamoDB** is a key-value and document database that delivers single-digit millisecond performance at any scale. It's a fully managed, multi-region, multi-master database with built-in security, backup and restores, and in-memory caching for internet-scale applications. 

**Amazon ElastiCache** is a web service that makes it easy to deploy, operate, and scale an in-memory cache in the cloud. The service improves the performance of web applications by allowing you to retrieve information from fast, managed, in-memory caches, instead of relying entirely on slower disk-based databases.

***Amazon ElastiCache supports two open-source in-memory caching engines:***

1. ***Redis*** - a fast, open-source, in-memory key-value data store for use as a database, cache, message broker, and queue. Amazon ElastiCache for Redis is a Redis-compatible in-memory service that delivers the ease-of-use and power of Redis along with the availability, reliability, and performance suitable for the most demanding applications.

2. ***Memcached*** - a widely adopted memory object caching system. ElastiCache for Memcached is protocol compliant with Memcached, so popular tools that you use today with existing Memcached environments will work seamlessly with the service.

**Amazon Keyspaces** (for Apache Cassandra) is a scalable, highly available, and managed Apache Cassandra–compatible database service. With Amazon Keyspaces, you can run your Cassandra workloads on AWS using the same Cassandra application code and developer tools that you use today. 

**Amazon Neptune** is a fast, reliable, fully-managed graph database service that makes it easy to build and run applications that work with highly connected datasets. The core of Amazon Neptune is a purpose-built, high-performance graph database engine optimized for storing billions of relationships and querying the graph with milliseconds latency. 

**Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS)** makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. It provides cost-efficient and resizable capacity while automating time-consuming administration tasks such as hardware provisioning, database setup, patching and backups. 

**Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS)** on VMware lets you deploy managed databases in on-premises VMware environments using the Amazon RDS technology enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of AWS customers. 

**Amazon Quantum Ledger Database (QLDB)** is a fully managed ledger database that provides a transparent, immutable, and cryptographically verifiable transaction log ‎owned by a central trusted authority. Amazon QLDB tracks each and every application data change and maintains a complete and verifiable history of changes over time.

**Amazon Timestream** is a fast, scalable, fully managed time-series database service for IoT and operational applications that makes it easy to store and analyze trillions of events per day at 1/10th the cost of relational databases.

**Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility)**  is a fast, scalable, highly available, and fully managed document database service that supports MongoDB workloads.

**Amazon Corretto** is a no-cost, multiplatform, production-ready distribution of the Open Java Development Kit (OpenJDK). Corretto comes with long-term support that will include performance enhancements and security fixes.

**AWS Cloud9** is a cloud-based integrated development environment (IDE) that lets you write, run, and debug your code with just a browser. It includes a code editor, debugger, and terminal. 

**AWS CloudShell** is a browser-based shell that makes it easy to securely manage, explore, and interact with your AWS resources. CloudShell is pre-authenticated with your console credentials. Common Development and operations tools are pre-installed, so no local installation or configuration is required. 

**AWS CodeArtifact** is a fully managed artifact repository service that makes it easy for organizations of any size to securely store, publish, and share software packages used in their software development process. 

**AWS CodeBuild** is a fully managed build service that compiles source code, runs tests, and produces software packages that are ready to deploy. With CodeBuild, you don’t need to provision, manage, and scale your own build servers. 

**AWS CodeCommit** is a fully managed source control service that makes it easy for companies to host secure and highly scalable private Git repositories. 

**AWS CodeDeploy** is a service that automates code deployments to any instance, including EC2 instances and instances running on premises. 

**AWS CodePipeline** is a fully managed continuous delivery service that helps you automate your release pipelines for fast and reliable application and infrastructure updates.

**AWS CodeStar** enables you to quickly develop, build, and deploy applications on AWS. AWS CodeStar provides a unified user interface, enabling you to easily manage your software development activities in one place. 

**AWS Fault Injection Simulator** is a fully managed service for running fault injection experiments on AWS that makes it easier to improve an application’s performance, observability, and resiliency. 

**Fault Injection Simulator** simplifies the process of setting up and running controlled fault injection experiments across a range of AWS services so teams can build confidence in their application behavior. With Fault Injection Simulator, teams can quickly set up experiments using pre-built templates that generate the desired disruptions. 

**AWS X-Ray** helps developers analyze and debug distributed applications in production or under development, such as those built using a microservices architecture.
