Set up to use AWS Cloud Map

The overview and procedures in the following sections are meant to help you get started with AWS and prepare you to start using AWS Cloud Map.

Sign up for an AWS account

To get started with AWS, you need an AWS account. For information about creating an AWS account, see Getting started with an AWS account in the AWS Account Management Reference Guide.

Download an AWS SDK

If you're using a programming language that AWS provides an SDK for, we recommend that you use an SDK instead of the AWS Cloud Map API. Using an SDK has several benefits. SDKs make authentication simpler, integrate easily with your development environment, and provide access to AWS Cloud Map commands. For more information, see Tools for Amazon Web Services.
