AWS Simple Icons v2.1Usage Guidelines

Check to make sure you have the most recent set of AWS Simple Icons.This version was last updated 4/18/2013 (v2.1) Find the most recent set ataws.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 diagrams – Try 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.
