AWS: Cloud Services
Review, Research, and Discussion
Describe the Web-Request-Response-Cycle
The web request respone cycle is how the internet works. A client makes a request to a server. The request asks the server for access to a specific resource. The server attempts to access the resource and sends back a status code along with the requested resource if the request was successful.
Explain what a “server” is, as it relates to the WRRC
A server contains a resource, either data or some sort of functionality. When a client makes a request to the server, the server attempts to access the desired resource and returns a status code and a message.
What does it mean to “deploy” an application?
Deployment is running an application on a server or device or making it available to run on a server or device.
