Course Description
This course prepares you for the AWS Certified Solutions Architect—Professional Exam and covers advanced technical concepts to design distributed applications and systems on the AWS platform. The training will cover: Designing and deploying dynamically scalable, highly available, fault tolerant, and reliable applications on AWS; Selecting appropriate AWS services to design and deploy an application based on given requirements; Migrating complex, multi-tier applications on AWS; Designing and deploying enterprise-wide scalable operations on AWS; Implementing cost control strategies.
What am I going to get from this course?
- Design and deploying dynamically scalable, highly available, fault tolerant, and reliable applications on AWS
- Select appropriate AWS services to design and deploy an application based on given requirements
- Migrate complex, multi-tier applications on AWS
- Design and deploying enterprise-wide scalable operations on AWS
- Implement cost control strategies
Prerequisites and Target Audience
What will students need to know or do before starting this course?
To do well in this course, students should have:
- Two or more years of hands-on experience designing and deploying cloud architecture on AWS.
- Abilities to evaluate cloud application requirements and make architectural recommendations for implementation, deployment, and provisioning applications on AWS.
- Capabilities to provide best practices guidance on the architectural design across multiple applications, projects, or the enterprise.
Who should take this course? Who should not?
Someone who already understand the concepts covered by AWS Certified Solutions Architect—Associate Exam.
