# AWS Management Console

AWS Management Console provides a web-based user interface that you can use to create and manage your AWS resources

# AWS CLI (Command Line Interface)

AWS Command Line Interface is a tool to manage your AWS resources. With just one tool to [install and configure](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html), you can control multiple AWS services from the command line and automate them through scripts.

# AWS SDK (Software Development Kits)
