This foundational course will strengthen your understanding of AWS Services. The instructors will teach basic topics regarding computing, networking, storage, database, monitoring, security, serverless, containers, databases, and cost optimization. We will map AWS Services and features to different technical roles in cloud computing. For example, the instructors will provide an overview of Amazon S3 from the perspective of a Solutions Architect, a Security Analyst and a Data Scientist, highlighting and explaining the top features that these roles will use.
