Overview
In this course, each module presents a scenario with an architectural challenge to be solved. You will examine available AWS services and features as solutions to the problem. You will gain insights by participating in problem-based discussions and learning about the AWS services that you could apply to meet the challenges. Over 3 days, the course goes beyond the basics of a cloud infrastructure and covers topics to meet a variety of needs for AWS customers. Course modules focus on managing multiple AWS accounts, hybrid connectivity and devices, networking with a focus on AWS Transit Gateway connectivity, container services, automation tools for continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD), security and distributed denial of service (DDoS) protection, data lakes and data stores, edge services, migration options, and managing costs. The course concludes by presenting you with scenarios and challenging you to identify the best solutions.

One of the best instructor. Clear to understand and very helpful. I enjoy this class and will definitely recommend this. Thank You
Great course, John was excellent in answering all my questions.
Apprreciate Ryan for delivering content deligently and clearly, quite informative session.
Craig was very knowledgeable and answered all questions very well.
Really enjoyed the class; the training venue/format (virtual) was a new experience for me and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I've already started sharing with my coworkers how valuable and enjoyable the class was and recommend it. I thought the instructions for the labs were very clear and straight forward and enjoyed the hands on aspect. I also found the presence of an instructor really helped facilitate the absorption of material as well as availability to ask questions live.
