Overview

The AWS Certified Solutions Architect Training Online is a 3-day course that envelops all the fundamentals of constructing IT infrastructure on the AWS platform. By learning how AWS services fit into and work with cloud-based solutions, attendees learn how to optimize the AWS Cloud. Attendees also learn about best practices of AWS Cloud and design patterns for architecting optimal IT solutions on AWS, and participate in guided, hands-on activities to develop a variety of infrastructures.

The AWS Architect Certification course also teaches students how to build budding architectures in resilient and adaptable solutions. By the end of the AWS Solutions Architect or AWS Cloud Certification, students will understand how to:

Build architectural decisions majorly based on AWS architectural principles and practices
Identify the elements that build an elastic, secure, virtual network that includes private and public subnets.
Practice building an AWS core networking infrastructure.
Determine strategies for a layered security approach to Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) subnets.
Identify strategies to select the appropriate compute resources based on business use-cases.
Practice building a VPC and adding an Amazon Cloud Compute (EC2) instance in a lab environment.
Explore AWS backup, recovery solutions, and best practices to ensure resiliency and business continuity.
Build a highly available and secure cloud architecture based on a business problem, in a project-based lab.
