Tutorial 1: Getting Started with AWS (Shoutout to TechTobe101's Youtube Channel)(3/5)

In this tutorial, we'll guide you through setting up your initial AWS account, ensuring a smooth start to your AWS journey. Whether you're completely new to AWS or looking to create a new account, follow these step-by-step instructions to get started:

Sign Up for an AWS Account:

  • Visit the AWS website (https://aws.amazon.com/) and click on the "Sign Up" button.

  • Follow the on-screen instructions to create your AWS account. You'll need to provide basic information such as your email address, password, and contact details.

  • Verify your email address by clicking on the verification link sent to your email inbox.

Navigate to the AWS Management Console:

  • Once your account is set up and verified, log in to the AWS Management Console using your newly created credentials.

The AWS Management Console is your central hub for managing your AWS services and resources. It provides a user-friendly interface for accessing a wide range of AWS services, from compute and storage to databases and networking.

It should be on the top.
