AWS Solutions Architect

This AWS Solutions Architect course is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of how to design and deploy scalable, highly available, and fault-tolerant applications on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) platform.

Throughout the course, participants will learn about the core AWS services and gain practical knowledge in designing architectures that leverage these services to meet specific business requirements. 

This course covers a wide range of topics, including:

• Introduction to AWS: Understanding the fundamentals of AWS, its global infrastructure, and the key services available.

• AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM): Managing user access and permissions to AWS resources and implementing security best practices.

• Networking and Virtual Private Cloud (VPC): Designing and configuring network architectures within AWS using VPC, subnets, security groups, and routing.

• Compute Services: Utilizing different compute services such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), and AWS Lambda for deploying and scaling applications.

• Storage and Database Services: Implementing scalable storage solutions using Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) and designing databases with Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) and Amazon DynamoDB.

• Application Integration: Integrating and managing data flows between different services using AWS Simple Queue Service (SQS), Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS), and AWS Step Functions.

• Security and Compliance: Understanding security best practices in AWS, implementing encryption mechanisms, and ensuring compliance with industry standards.

• High Availability and Fault Tolerance: Designing architectures that can withstand failures and provide high availability using services like Amazon Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) and Auto Scaling.

• Cost Optimization: Optimizing costs by selecting appropriate services, utilizing AWS Trusted Advisor, and implementing cost monitoring and control measures.

The course combines theoretical concepts with hands-on labs and real-world scenarios to provide participants with practical experience in designing and deploying AWS architectures. By the end of the course, participants will be prepared to take the AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate exam, which validates their knowledge and skills in AWS solution architecture.
