# AWS Quick Start

This Quick Start tutorial shows you how to set up an end-to-end cloud deployment. You will create DuploCloud Infrastructure and Tenants and, by the end of this tutorial, you can view a deployed sample web application.

*Estimated time to complete tutorial: 75-95 minutes.*

## AWS Tutorial Roadmap

When you complete the AWS Quick Start Tutorial, you have three options or paths, as shown in the table below.

**EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service):** Create a Service in DuploCloud using AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service and expose it using a Load Balancer within DuploCloud.

**ECS (AWS Elastic Container Service):** Create an app and Service in DuploCloud using AWS Elastic Container Service.

**Native Docker:** Create a Service in Docker and expose it using a Load Balancer within DuploCloud.

{% hint style="info" %}
Optional steps in each tutorial path are marked with an asterisk in the table below. While these steps are not required to complete the tutorials, you may want to perform or read through them, as they are normally completed when you create production-ready services.
{% endhint %}

For information about the differences between these methods and to help you choose which method best suits your needs, skills, and environments, see this [AWS blog](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/amazon-ecs-vs-amazon-eks-making-sense-of-aws-container-services/) and [Docker ](https://docs.docker.com/)documentation.
