AWS Solution Architect Associate training course will provide you with the right knowledge of AWS cloud for clearing AWS certification. You will get real time hands-on experience in working with cloud computing, Amazon Web Services, various components of cloud like Software as a Service, Platform as a Service, Infrastructure as a Service and private cloud programming. You will learn to design, plan and scale AWS infrastructure using the best practices.
This course will make you exam-ready for the AWS Solution Architect Associate certification and will enable you to leverage your skills and expertise involving advanced cloud-based solutions, and migrating existing workloads to the cloud.
High Level Learning Objectives:
Formulate solution plans and provide guidance on architectural best practices
Design and deploy scalable, highly available, and fault tolerant systems on AWS
Identify the lift and shift of an existing on-premises application to AWS
Decipher the ingress and egress of data to and from AWS
Select the appropriate AWS service based on data, compute, database, or security requirements
Identify appropriate use of AWS architectural best practices
Estimate AWS costs and identifying cost control mechanisms
Course also prepares participants to take and pass the AWS Solution Architect certification exam successfully.
Instead of having to invest heavily in data centers and servers before you know how you’re going to use them, you can only pay when you consume computing resources, and only pay for how much you consume.
By using cloud computing, you can achieve a lower variable cost than you can get on your own. Because usage from hundreds of thousands of customers are aggregated in the cloud, providers such as Amazon Web Services can achieve higher economies of scale which translates into lower pay as you go prices.
Eliminate guessing on your infrastructure capacity needs. When you make a capacity decision prior to deploying an application, you often either end up sitting on expensive idle resources or dealing with limited capacity. With cloud computing, these problems go away. You can access as much or as little as you need, and scale up and down as required with only a few minutes notice.
In a cloud computing environment, new IT resources are only ever a click away, which means you reduce the time it takes to make those resources available to your developers from weeks to just minutes. This results in a dramatic increase in agility for the organization, since the cost and time it takes to experiment and develop is significantly lower.
Focus on projects that differentiate your business, not the infrastructure. Cloud computing lets you focus on your own customers, rather than on the heavy lifting of racking, stacking and powering servers.
Easily deploy your application in multiple regions around the world with just a few clicks. This means you can provide a lower latency and better experience for your customers simply and at minimal cost.
