4. Integration with other AWS services.
5. Low cost

1. Searchable image and video libraries
2. Face-based user verification
3. Sentiment and demographic analysis
4. Facial Search
5. Unsafe content detection
6. Celebrity recognition
7. Text detection
8. Custom labels

1. IAM
2. S3
3. Lamda
4. Rekognition[This service we are using within the lambda function]

• Firstly, we are going to read an image from the S3 bucket via a lambda function. 
• And in the second step we will pass that image to rekognition service via calling rekognition API. In response to this, rekognition API will return labels.

• Go to the AWS Management console.
• Search for the IAM service and enter.
• In the IAM service on the left side click on Roles In that click on Create Role button.
• Select the type of trusted entity as an AWS service by default.
• In Choose a use case selects Lambda and then click on Next: Permission button.
• In the Attach permissions policies select two policies :

a. AmazonRekognitionFullAccess

b. AWSLambdaExecute

• Click on Next: Tags button.
• Add tags part is optional so click on Next: Review button.
• Give a name to your role. You can give any name to your role[for eg.lamda_rekognition ]and click on Create role button.
• Your role is ready.

• Go to the AWS Management console.
• Search for the S3 service and enter.
• Click on the Create bucket button.
• Give any unique name to you bucket[for eg rekognition].
• Keep all default settings as it is and click on the Create bucket button.
• Once your bucket is created click on your bucket name. In that click on the upload button and drag and drop any image that you want and click on the upload button directly. Once the image is uploaded you can see the image as follows

• Go to the AWS Management console.
• Search for the Lambda service and enter.
• After coming onto the lambda service page click on Create function button.
• Select the Author from Scratch default option.
• For function name give any name of your choice[for eg lamda_rekognition].
• In the Runtime select python 3.6
• Expand the Choose or create an execution role. 
• In that select Use an existing role. And in the existing role select the role that we created in our first step[I have given the name for a role is lamda_rekognition]. 
• Finally, click on create function button

• Once you created a lambda function then click on your function name.
• In the function, code editor type the function that I have given in the following:
• In the following code, you can directly pass the S3 references in the response using rekognition client and you will get a response.”MaxLables=3" term is optional using this you can able to see only three labels for the image if we did not mention the name you get more label names for your images

Note: In place of buket_name and image_name plz mentioned your S3 bucket name and uploaded image name.

import json
import boto3
def lambda_handler(event, context):
client = boto3.client("rekognition")
#passing s3 bucket object file reference    
response = client.detect_labels(Image = {"S3Object": {"Bucket":       "bucket_name", "Name": "image_name"}}, MaxLabels=3,  MinConfidence=70)
print(response)
return "Thanks"

• If you want to pass the byte data in the function then also you can pass then prefer the following code.

import json
import boto3
def lambda_handler(event, context):
client = boto3.client("rekognition")
    s3 = boto3.client("s3")
# reading file from s3 bucket and passing it as bytes
fileObj = s3.get_object(Bucket = "bucket_name", Key="image_name")
file_content = fileObj["Body"].read()
# passing bytes data
response = client.detect_labels(Image = {"Bytes": file_content}, MaxLabels=3, MinConfidence=70)
print(response)
return "Thanks"

• You can add any one of the codes that I have given above you will get the same response. Just I have shown you two different kinds of code for the lambda function.
• After adding the code click on the save button.
• To test the function for image analysis. Click on the Test button given on the upper right side. Once you click on the test button it will pop up one window.
• In that select Create new test event and in Event Template give any name that you want.
• And finally, click on the Create button.
• Once you create the test event it will show you the test event name. So now click on the Test button.

• Once you click on the test the response will look like below:
