Organize Your Cloud Environment with AWS My Applications

My application is a feature that helps to organize and manage resources in the AWS cloud. In the AWS console we can see my application widget like this:
 

Below is a summary of the features that My Applications provide:

Organising Resources: Let’s say you’re producing an application which involves the use of different AWS services, including SQS queues, EC2 instances, and DynamoDB databases. This combined effort paves the way for a more convenient method to perceive all the information of a particular application using My Applications rather than working on each system separately.

Centralised examine: My Application maintains a centralized facade that allows users to look up all the application-related resources they need without the hassle of browsing through all the AWS services to pick those, they need. besides, this will reduce the number of waiting hours, so you will get your documents processed quickly and with ease.

Simplified Management: My Apps feature ensures there is no effort while adding another resource to existing applications or creating new applications from scratch. You can also apply tags to sort filters and resources and thus the permission can be managed easily with all the overall application.

Improved Organization: Upon the introduction of my Enterprise Management program to your cloud environment, it becomes more regulated. You can cluster resources depending on function, project, or any other desirable attributes, resulting in simpler and more organized cloud management.

Let's go through the demo on how to create AWS my application using the AWS console.

When you click the “Create application” button in the widget, you will be redirected to this page, where you can provide the application name and description. You can also add a unique tag.

When we click the next button this will redirect to the page where we can add existing resources to our application. This part is optional if you want to create a new application using existing resources you can use this.

To use this you need to enable AWS Resources Explorer. It is a free service. Now I’m going to use existing resources to create applications. So I clicked the “Select Resources” button. Then it will display a window like this:

Then I added those resources to my application:

Then let's create the application:

Now here you can see the application named demo in my application widget:

Once we click that you can see the cost for the application, resource consumption, security, monitoring and many more application-wise. And also you can customize your dashboard. Using this we can set specific alerts too.

What You Can Do With My Applications:

Get the data on the application charges, throughput, security, and monitoring.

Make your dashboard personalised and for user-friendly access to data that you need to see instantly.

Create cloud resource management alerts based on the specific application. Scan the utilization on a regular basis for timely action.

With My Apps, you will enjoy more organization, control, and visibility in your AWS cloud setup by using it.

Happy coding 🚀
