Easy to read and very succinct ! Loved this course. Its better than most other courses  out there that are either half baked or way to detailed. 

Excellent,  time and money well spent on this. 

Richard Guajardo

Got what I was looking for. I used this for my interview prep with AWS. 

Worth it !

Tammy Rogers 

Loved all the architecture diagrams. It really helped in understanding how each service would be used. 

Pretty detailed. 

Learn the A to Z of  Amazon Web Services  (AWS)

## What is SWF?


It is a web service that makes it easy to coordinate work across distributed application components.


Think about an expense report that you submit. It may require a report that you submit. It may require 3 approvals you submit. This would be the job of SWS, you can create a workflow to get approval from manager 1 and then send it for approval to manager 2 and then 3. When the workflow is completed it could even trigger an email notification to you. 

**SQS** is  message-oriented and **SWS** is  task-oriented.

**SWS – Actors**: 
Workflow Starters – an application that can initiate a workflow. Example: your expense reporting tool. When you hit the “submit” button.

**Workflow Decider**:
Control the flow of activity tasks in a workflow execution. i.e. if a task is finished in a workflow or if it fails the decider, decides what to do next.

**Activity Workers**
carry out the activity tasks.
