In this course, you will learn the core AWS skills and concepts needed to begin working with AWS and to achieve AWS certification. You will get there by learning major topics like understanding the AWS global infrastructure, learning how to work with AWS storage, and exploring CloudFront, CloudFormation, Elastic Beanstalk, and CloudTrail.
By the end of this course, you will be able to build a cost-effective, scalable, and reliable infrastructure on the AWS platform.
To get the most from this course, make sure you are already familiar with the basics of cloud computing, in particular infrastructure as a service (IAAS), as well as Microsoft and Linux essentials, including DNS and DHCP, networking essentials, virtualization, and storage.
After this course, you’ll be ready to move on to more advanced topics like AWS Certified SysOps Administrator and AWS Certified Solutions Architect.
