This primer provides step-by-step tutorials on how to get started in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud. The tutorials are listed in the recommended reading order. However, feel free to read them in an order that coincides with your background and preference. Given that cloud technology is constantly evolving, it is likely that some primer details no longer match reality when you try to use it. If you find mismatches (e.g. broken third-party links), contact us so that we can feed them into the next release of the primer.
