AWS CLI

AWS has command line interface using AWS CLI
To work with CLI we need IAM Programmatic Access (Secret Access key Id & Secret Access Key)
AWS CLI is used to automate the aws infra creation & management with the help of shell scripts or powershell
AWS CLI: Refer Here for the official docs

aws [options] <command> <subcommand> [parameters]
