What you'll learn

Many AWS data pipelines start out functional but fail in production due to missing observability, overly permissive security configurations, and rapidly growing storage costs that go unmanaged. In this course, Operating Secure, Observable, and Cost-efficient AWS Data Pipelines, you’ll gain the ability to operate resilient, secure, and cost-aware AWS data pipelines at production scale. First, you’ll explore how to implement observability using Amazon CloudWatch and AWS X-Ray to monitor and trace pipeline execution. Next, you’ll discover how to secure each stage of the pipeline using IAM role boundaries and encryption best practices. Finally, you’ll learn how to optimize costs using S3 lifecycle rules, tagging strategies, and AWS Cost Explorer. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of AWS data pipeline operations needed to confidently manage pipelines that are secure, observable, and cost-efficient.
