AWS Simple Iconsv2.4

AWS Simple Icons: Usage Guidelines

Check to make sure you have the most recent set of AWS Simple IconsThis version was last updated 1/28/2014 (v2.4) Find the most recent set at: aws.amazon.com/architecture/icons/

Always use icon labels Be sure to always include a label below the icon or on the group in Arial. The only exception is in complex diagrams; you have the option to create a key.

Non-AWS technology Any server or other non-AWS technology in an architecture diagram should be represented with they grey server (see Slide 8). 

Creating diagramsTry to use direct lines (rather than ‘criss-cross’), use adequate whitespace, and remember to label all icons.

Product icons The first icon in most service sets is a product icon. This should be used to represent the service on a more general level when you will not be going into as much depth.
