Okay friends, before we go and start setting up Amazon SDS, I want to talk in this lecture about some requirements that you need to follow up with me. As I mentioned before, the email marketing system consists of two ports, the SMTP port or the sending port. In our case, it's Amazon SNS and we have the email application or the email marketing application. So for Amazon ECS, you are required to have a domain name, I will show you how to buy and get one and if you have already a domain name, you can just follow up with me. So for setting up Amazon ECS, mainly, the core features will work with only a domain name. That's the only requirement.

Now for the email marketing application part. It's up to you if you want to follow up with me and build really a professional email marketing system. There. You need also a VPS server to host your email marketing application and you need to buy application, which is our case is called mail, which I think you heard about it before. It's really an awesome application, a PHP script that you can install on your server and have a full email marketing system connected with Amazon SES. If you don't want this you can use any email sender you want, it's up to you, you can get a free one if you want.

This is related to you. But if you want to follow up and build really a professional email marketing system, you need to follow up and get also a VPS server and by the email marketing application, it's up to you now to stop me and continue you just need now a domain name. In the next section we will start configuring and setting up Amazon sts so stay tuned and follow up with me.
