Create a Sample AWS Photo Analyzer application using the AWS SDK for Java

You can create an AWS application that analyzes nature images located in a S3 bucket by using the Amazon Rekognition service. The application can analyze many images and generate a report that breaks down each image into a series of labels. For example, the following image shows a lake.



After the application analyzes this image, it creates this data.


  • Panoramic - 99.99971
  • Outdoors - 99.99971
  • Nature - 99.99971
  • Landscape - 99.99971
  • Scenery - 99.99971
  • Wilderness - 96.90007
  • Water - 93.501465
  • Lake - 87.28128

In addition, this application uses the Simple Email Service (SES) to send a report to a given email recipient. In this tutorial, you create a Spring Boot application named AWS Photo Analyzer. The Spring Boot APIs are used to build a model, different views, and a controller. For more information, see Spring Boot - Securing Web Applications.

This application uses these AWS Services:


  • Amazon Rekognition
  • Amazon S3
  • Amazon Simple Email Service
  • AWS Elastic BeanStalk
