AWS Services Catalog

A report-backed catalog of AWS services shaped for quick browsing. The page preserves category, stage, lifecycle status, region and partition limitations, retirement notes, and notable caveats from the research report instead of flattening them into a generic spreadsheet.

How to read the labels

Stage and status come directly from the normalized report model.

Stage

Generally available according to the research report's normalized lifecycle model.

Preview

Public preview or other pre-GA availability called out in the report.

Retired/Discontinued

No longer offered as an active AWS service or capability in the report snapshot.

Status

Active

Available for normal use in the report snapshot.

Region-limited

Available, but only in the explicitly listed regions or partitions.

Deprecated

Still available, but AWS guidance in the report points learners toward alternatives.

Retiring

AWS has published an end date or support cutoff in the report sources.

Retired

Already shut down or unavailable to customers in the report snapshot.

Current view

The catalog is narrowed by your current search or focus.

AWS App Runner

GADeprecated$$$

Managed service for running web applications from container images or source, with AWS indicating ongoing security/availability investment but no planned new features, and recommending migration to Amazon ECS Express Mode.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Deprecated (still available but discouraged)
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); service lifecycle change applies account-wide
Typical use cases: Simple production web app hostinginternal APIs with auto scalingcontainerized microservices without cluster opsquick developer deployments.
Cost signal: $$$ always-on web workloads + networking/LB; cost driven by compute hours and traffic

Notes: New customers closed Apr 30, 2026; existing customers continue. Suggested replacement: Amazon ECS Express Mode.

Primary source

AWS Batch

GAActive$$$$$

Managed batch processing that schedules and runs batch jobs across compute resources at scale.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Active
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); regional availability varies
Typical use cases: Genomics batch pipelinesmedia rendering farmsMonte Carlo simulationslarge-scale ETL batch jobs.
Cost signal: $$$$$ compute-heavy, throughput batch workloads

Primary source

AWS Elastic Beanstalk

GAActive$$

PaaS-like deployment service for web applications that handles provisioning and scaling underlying resources.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Active
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); regional availability varies
Typical use cases: Quick web app deploymentsmanaged platform rolloutslegacy app modernization stepstandardized environment templates.
Cost signal: $$ service itself; underlying EC2/ALB/RDS costs dominate

Primary source

AWS Fargate

GAActive$$$

Serverless compute engine for containers that lets you run containers without managing servers/clusters directly.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Active
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); regional availability varies
Typical use cases: Serverless containers for ECS/EKSbursty microservicesbatch container jobssimplified container ops.
Cost signal: $$$ pay-per-vCPU/memory; can be high for always-on services

Primary source

AWS Lambda

GAActive$$

Serverless compute service to run code in response to events without managing servers, billed by execution.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Active
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); regional availability varies
Typical use cases: Event-driven microservicesscheduled automationreal-time data transformsAPI backends.
Cost signal: $$ per-request and duration; can rise with very high volume

Primary source

AWS SimSpace Weaver

GARetiring$$$$$

Distributed simulation service listed in "Services in Sunset" with a published sunset date.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Retiring (announced end date)
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws)
Typical use cases: Large-scale simulations for roboticssynthetic envs for autonomycomplex systems modelingdistributed agent simulations.
Cost signal: $$$$$ distributed simulation compute at scale

Notes: Sunset date May 20, 2026.

Primary source

Amazon EC2

GAActive$$$$

Resizable virtual compute capacity (instances) for running applications with granular control over compute, storage, and networking.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Active
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); regional availability varies
Typical use cases: Web/app serversbatch/HPC computeself-managed databaseslift-and-shift enterprise apps.
Cost signal: $$$$ always-on compute + storage + data transfer

Primary source

Amazon ECS

GAActive$$$

Managed container orchestration service for running and scaling containerized apps on AWS.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Active
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); regional availability varies
Typical use cases: Microservice orchestrationbatch containersblue/green deploymentsplatform team-managed clusters.
Cost signal: $$$ compute and networking dominate; scales with service count

Primary source

Amazon EKS

GAActive$$$$

Managed Kubernetes service running control-plane across multiple AZs for resilient Kubernetes clusters.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Active
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); regional availability varies
Typical use cases: Standard Kubernetes workloadshybrid Kubernetes with consistent toolingmulti-tenant cluster platformsmicroservices at scale.
Cost signal: $$$$ control plane + node compute + add-ons; can be expensive at scale

Primary source

Amazon Lightsail

GAActive$$

Simplified VPS-style service with predictable pricing for basic compute/storage/networking and easy app hosting.

Lifecycle: GA stage - Active
Availability / regions: Commercial (aws); regional availability varies
Typical use cases: Small business websitesdev/test serverssimple WordPress stackslightweight APIs.
Cost signal: $$ bundled pricing; predictable but can scale up

Methodology snapshot

This page stays intentionally close to the source report.

Every catalog entry is populated from the uploaded AWS services research report. The page does not invent alternative maturity labels or hide lifecycle exceptions.

When the report flags source conflicts, retirement windows, region limits, or replacement guidance, that note is surfaced directly on the service card so learners can make safer architecture choices.
