Course Overview
The Cloud is probably the most important advancement in designing highly available, fault-tolerant, and scalable web or data processing applications. AWS is the premiere cloud provider today.
This 5-day course teaches how to utilize the services offered by AWS in order to design and implement the most efficient, cost-effective, easy to code, and easy to maintain systems that will run on AWS infrastructure.
We will cover both IASS and PASS topics teaching both how to port on-prem applications to the cloud and use AWS as an IASS provider but also how to use AWS as a PASS provider which should cut costs and investment.
