The main goal of this article is to help you improve your English level. I will use Simple English to introduce to you the concepts related to software development. In terms of IT knowledge, it might have been explained better and more clearly on the internet, but remember that the main target of this article is still to LEARN ENGLISH.

Hi, I'm Tuan, a Full-stack Web Developer from Tokyo 😊. Follow my blog to not miss out on useful and interesting articles in the future.

This article will introduce you to the services of AWS. These services are used in real-world projects that I have been through. If you can understand the basics of how to use these services, I think you can be completely confident in your ability to use AWS.

You can use Step Functions to create a visual workflow of your application, so you can easily see how each step fits together. This makes it easier to debug and troubleshoot any problems that come up.
