AWS Fundamentals Course

I recently completed the four-course AWS Fundamentals specialization on Coursera conducted by the AWS team. Beginners can start this one but some basic backend and system design knowledge are necessary.

Brief Introductions to the four courses:

Going Cloud Native:

This course will introduce you to AWS core services and infrastructure.

Topics: EC2, S3, VPC, Gateways, ELB, EFS, EBS, Lightsail, RDS, DynamoDB, Cloudwatch.

Addressing Security Risks:

This course will give you an overview of security best practices when developing and managing applications on AWS.

Topics: AWS Shared Responsibility Model, Security Hub GuardDuty, Secrets Manager, IAM.

Migrating to the Cloud:

This course focuses on analyzing your current environment, planning your migration, AWS services that are commonly used during a migration, and the actual migration steps.
There are optional lab works but access to that is limited to paid enrolled students. Thanks to BUET I got a paid Coursera access.

Topics: DMS, Migration policies, Direct Connect, etc.

This course will introduce you to the AWS serverless architecture. Through demonstrations and hands-on exercises you'll learn skills by building and deploying a serverless website & a chat bot.
