- Engage with an up-to-date curriculum reflecting latest features and best practices as of November 2025.
Requirements / Prerequisites
- Basic understanding of cloud computing concepts like elasticity, scalability, and regional availability.
- Familiarity with general IT concepts including operating systems, networking fundamentals, and application deployment.
- An active AWS account (free tier eligible for most demos) to follow along.
- Access to a web browser and stable internet connection.
- No prior hands-on AWS compute experience required; foundational curiosity is essential.
- Basic command-line interface (CLI) familiarity beneficial, but not mandatory.
Skills Covered / Tools Used
- AWS Console Navigation: Proficiently locate and interact with EC2, Lambda, ECS, EKS, and Elastic Beanstalk.
- Virtual Machine Management: Instance sizing, security group configuration, and key pair management for EC2.
- Serverless Function Development: Exposure to event-driven architectures and API Gateway integration with Lambda.
- Container Orchestration Fundamentals: Understanding Docker images, task definitions, and service deployment patterns on ECS.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Awareness: Understand how services like Elastic Beanstalk automate infrastructure provisioning.
- Networking for Compute: Grasping interactions between compute instances/functions and VPCs, subnets, and security rules.
- Monitoring and Logging Basics: Verify health and performance of deployed compute resources using integrated AWS tools.
- Cost Awareness: Identify cost implications of different compute choices and optimization strategies.
- Cloud Security Best Practices: Implement least privilege principles for compute services via IAM roles and security groups.
- AWS CLI (Optional exposure): Glimpses into command-line interactions for automating compute-related tasks.
- Docker (Conceptual): Understand Docker’s role in packaging applications for container services like ECS/EKS.
