This two-day AWS: Architecting on the Cloud course examines the core of Amazon Web Services. The class begins with an exploration of the story behind AWS, dissecting the Well-Architected Framework, and understanding the six advantages of cloud computing. Participants delve into hands-on labs, building the simplest architectures with S3, Glacier, and static website deployment. Learners then take a deeper dive into architecting scalable solutions, covering compute and database layers, with an emphasis on automation using CloudFormation, AWS Quick Starts, and Elastic Beanstalk. Other topics include networking mastery in AWS, AWS IAM, and Elasticity, High Availability, and Monitoring.
