In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of building IT infrastructure on AWS. Solutions architects will learn how to optimize the use of the AWS Cloud by understanding AWS services and how these services fit into cloud-based solutions. This course emphasizes AWS cloud best practices and recommended design patterns to help you think through the process of architecting optimal IT solutions on AWS. Case studies throughout the course showcase how some AWS customers have designed their infrastructures and the strategies and services they implemented.
ObjectivesMaking decisions based on the AWS-recommended architectural principles and best practices Leveraging AWS services to make your infrastructure scalable, reliable, and highly available Leveraging AWS managed services to enable greater flexibility and resiliency in an infrastructureMaking an AWS-based infrastructure more efficient in order to increase performance and reduce costsUsing the Well-Architected Framework to improve architectures with AWS solutions.
