Create Amazon EC2 resources using an Amazon SDK

Amazon provides software development kits (SDK) for many popular programming languages. An SDK makes development more efficient by providing the following:

  • Pre-built components and libraries that you can incorporate into your applications

  • Language-specific tools, such as compilers and debuggers

  • Cryptographic signing of service requests

  • Request retries

  • Error response handling
