Advanced Networking on AWS
This course will teach you advanced networking concepts in AWS to prepare for the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional certification. You'll learn about routing and gateways, hybrid connectivity options, and network security.
What you'll learn
Properly configuring networking in AWS is more than just using the default VPC. In this course, Advanced Networking on AWS, you’ll learn to design and architect complex networking configurations on AWS. First, you’ll explore advanced concepts within the VPC, including route tables, private DNS, and elastic network interfaces. Next, you’ll discover how to implement network security using security groups, NACLs, and flow logs. Finally, you’ll learn how to connect multiple VPCs, on-premises networks, and remote clients using peering, Direct Connect, and the Transit Gateway. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge needed to prepare for the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional certification and build resilient, secure, and scalable networks in AWS.
