Architecting on AWS - Perth

Architecting on AWS

The Architecting on AWS covers the fundamentals of AWS. It is designed to teach Solution Architects how to optimize the use of AWS Cloud by understanding AWS services and how these services fit into a cloud solution. Your architectural solution may differ depending on industry and size of business. Because there is no one-size-fits all design, this course highlights some AWS Cloud design patterns to help you learn how a service may fit in the overall cloud design. It also covers the best practices and lessons learned.
