Oh hell I have spent the last decade working with AWS and I still have no idea what any of the icons are. They are all complete shit. Literally the worst.
To be fair I can't remember half the product names other than the core ones either. Elastic Banana or whatever. Maybe Dynamo Donkey. I just don't know any more.
Edit: I'm also an AWS Architect Professional or whatever it's called now. Shows how a monkey can pass the certs eh?
3/20 and two correct ones were guesses here; I was actually wondering what's wrong with me, asking "Dude, have you ever even seen the AWS console at this point?" (I have in fact stared at it way too much). Goes to show a lot of these icons just aren't very distinctive and don't seem to matter much.
Worth noting that also from experience that applies to the amount of effort they put into services. Most of the non-core ancillary services are buggy garbage. I'm wondering if we're going to cause an integer overflow on the support ticket system the way we're going.
To be fair, the majority of professional interaction with AWS should be via text interfaces - infrastructure as code, SDKs, commandline - where icons don't matter.
The names aren't often all that much better, of course
