The Beginner's Guide to AWS by Steven Mcananey is a friendly, step‑by‑step introduction that demystifies Amazon Web Services (AWS) for newcomers.

Starting with the rationale behind cloud computing, it walks readers through setting up an AWS account, understanding the core services—like compute, storage, networking, and serverless computing—and building their first cloud project.

Along the way, it emphasizes hands-on learning via the AWS Free Tier, cost‑management strategies, and how to scale infrastructure.

By the end of the book, readers will be confident navigating the AWS Console, deploying basic architectures, and planning next steps on their cloud journey.
