Builders can now sign up for a new simplified experience that makes it faster to turn ideas into running code on AWS. AWS services provide an array of configuration options so that the largest enterprises can customize settings for their distinct needs. Until now, builders with a new project idea had to decide among these options and configure their AWS environment before beginning to build. The new experience reduces setup effort by simplifying sign-up and automatically configuring an initial project with sensible defaults so builders can begin implementing their idea immediately.
When you sign up, you can use your existing Google, GitHub, Apple, or Amazon credentials. For most new customers, no credit card is required and you will receive up to $200 in free credits as part of the AWS Free Tier. Once signup is complete, you can connect your coding agent to AWS with a single prompt that automatically installs the AWS CLI and the Agent Toolkit for AWS. Your coding agent connects to your project and uses built-in guidance to deploy resources using best practices.
As your project expands, you can invite team members to collaborate with you by email. When a team member accepts your invitation, their project access is configured automatically. Similarly, many of the AWS resources you create can access resources in other AWS services automatically because the new IAM role manager capability is enabled for your projects. When you’re ready to upgrade to a paid plan, you can set a monthly spend limit for your project based on your usage patterns so that you stay within your budget. If a project’s usage reaches its spend limit, your project is paused for that month. You can create additional projects with one click, each with its own spend limit and distinct team members. At any time, you can activate advanced features without migration or downtime, enabling you to use additional features such as multiple AWS Regions and custom governance controls.
To try the new experience, create a new AWS account. To learn more, see AWS reimagines the getting started experience on the AWS News Blog.
