AWS Networking and Traffic Management
Build confidence with AWS networking by learning how traffic actually moves through VPCs. This path focuses on AWS-specific networking primitives such as VPCs, route tables, gateways, and security groups, and shows how they work together to enable or block connectivity. You'll build and validate simple network paths, understand why they work, and learn how small changes affect traffic behavior in real AWS environments.
Content in this path
Ignition
Prioritizes hands-on construction over explanation by having learners immediately configure and validate basic AWS networking components. Only the minimum scaffolding required to orient AWS concepts is provided, allowing understanding to develop through doing.
Essentials
Learn why the Ignition build works and how AWS evaluates traffic decisions. Learners explore how routing, gateways, and security groups affect behavior and practice making controlled changes, including fixing simple and realistic connectivity issues.

What You'll Learn
- 1. How AWS networking primitives interact to determine traffic reachability and traffic flow.
- 2. How to build and validate a minimal working network path in a VPC.
- 3. How routing, gateways, and security groups shape traffic behavior.
- Learners should be familiar with basic networking concepts such as IP addressing, CIDR, and subnets, and have experience deploying workloads in AWS. Comfort navigating the AWS Management Console is assumed.
