‫Okay.
‫So I would like to talk to you about an alternative
‫to using the terminal to issue commands against AWS.
‫And this is using cloud shell.
‫So cloud shell is this icon right here on the top
‫right corner of your screen.
‫And if you don't see it, just make sure you check
‫out the clutch shell availability regions
‫because it's not available everywhere.
‫And so if you go to the clash of FAC, you can see
‫that there are some regions that's not available.
‫So let's have a look right now with the regions.
‫Here we go. Question three.
‫Right now that's, I'm recording.
‫It's only available in one of these regions.
‫So by the way, I would recommend if you want to follow
‫along to just use one of these regions, then
‫so we can use cloud shell, but if you don't use cloud shell
‫in this hands-on, that is completely fine.
‫If the terminal was working for you, do not worry.
‫You're good to go.
‫Okay. So we have cloud shell in here and within cloud shell
‫you could take a minute maybe to launch your environment.
‫You can issue commands.
‫For example, you can issue the AWS commands.
‫So as you can see is installed, if I do
‫either of us management is version, as we can see
‫I'm on version two.one right now using cloud shell.
‫So cloud shell is basically a terminal in the cloud of AWS.
‫That's free to use.
‫Okay. So the cool thing about cloud shell is
‫that whenever you are using the CLI, so for example
‫it was am list users.
‫This is going to return for you an API call
‫as if the credentials being used, where the credentials
‫of the accounts of you using the cloud right now
‫which is why the API calls are working.
‫And by default, you can specify any kind
‫of region you want to do.
‫The API call using the management is region arguments, but
‫in cloud shell, the default region is going to
‫be the region you're currently in
‫logged in right now in cloud shell.
‫So this is another thing that's good to know.
‫Okay. Other things that you should know
‫about cloud shell is that you have a full repository.
‫So for example, right now, as we can see
‫we have zero files within cloud shell.
‫But if you just do
‫echo
‫tests
‫into demo dot TXT, this is going to create a text
‫file that contains the word texts tests.
‫And so it turns out that
‫if you happen to restart your cloud shell
‫then this file will stick.
‫So all the files you are creating
‫within your cultural environment, for example
‫this demo that's TXT are going to stay.
‫And the other cool thing you can do
‫about cloud shell is that you can configure it.
‫So you can say what font size you want, smallest
‫medium and large.
‫And so on the tech, the theme you want, so light or dark
‫if he wants safe based or nuts.
‫So resist like a bigger cloud shell for me right now.
‫And also you have the possibility to download
‫and upload files.
‫So for example, if I want you to get the full path
‫to my file, so did this demo let's six.
‫I can just copy it right now.
‫Action and download foul, and then do demo dot TXT.
‫And this will go ahead and download the file for me.
‫And alternatively, you could upload your own files
‫into your cultural environments.
‫So I want to show you these handy options
‫because for me, they are lifesavers.
‫Okay.
‫And finally, if you wanted more tabs into this environment
‫you could have a new tab.
‫You can split into column example, and there you go.
‫You have two terminals
‫into cloud shell connected at the same time.
‫So really that once show you the power
‫of cloud shell in this hands-on again, you're doing it.
‫You know, all the commands that data just wants to show you.
‫If you're a power user, then you can do these commands
‫and how they would work with cloud shell.
‫So the bottom line for this lecture again, is number one
‫cloud shell is only available in some regions.
‫So maybe try to choose one
‫of the regions where cloud shell is available.
‫If you want to use it, if you don't want to use cloud shell
‫or cloud shell is not working for you.
‫This is completely fine.
‫As long as you use the terminal, the way we configured it
‫from before, this will work just fine.
‫And you'll be fine in the course to either use cloud shell
‫or your terminal to perform the commands
‫with the CLA against AWS.
‫Okay. And also remember that I really like the upload
‫and download feature of cloud shell
‫choose to upload files and download files from it.
‫Okay. So that's it for this lecture.
‫I hope you liked it.
‫And I will see you in the next lecture.
