This project is an interactive 3D website that visually explains how Amazon Web Services builds its global cloud infrastructure. Instead of reading through official AWS documentation and static diagrams, users can explore a spinning 3D globe that shows AWS Regions, Availability Zones, Local Zones, Wavelength Zones, Edge Locations, and the network connections between them. The project is aimed at people learning AWS for the first time, those studying for AWS certification exams, cloud engineers, solution architects, and instructors who teach these concepts. It runs directly in a web browser with no installation needed, and works on both desktop and mobile devices. Over several versions, the creator added features to make learning easier, including shareable links that jump straight to a specific region, a search box to find any region by name or city, and guided narrated tours that walk a new user through what they are looking at, step by step. Later updates added information badges showing how many availability zones each region has, a glossary explaining key AWS terms in plain language, and a dark and light theme option. The project also includes animated visualizations of real AWS traffic patterns, such as how content delivery through CloudFront works or how data replicates across regions using S3. The author is an AWS Community Builder and holds multiple AWS certifications. The project is clearly marked as an independent educational project, not affiliated with or endorsed by Amazon, and it is released under the MIT license.
