Today, I started my AWS learning journey and explored some important concepts of cloud computing through hands-on activities.
One of the most interesting concepts was “Pizza as a Service 2.0” 🍕, which made understanding cloud service models much easier. From making pizza at home to having a complete party managed for us, the responsibility gradually shifts from the user to the service provider:
On-Premise → IaaS → PaaS → SaaS → AIaaS
I also learned about AWS Pay-as-You-Go, where we pay based on the resources we actually use.
☁️ AWS Concepts Covered
- AWS Root User & IAM User
- AWS Regions
- Amazon S3
- Amazon EC2
- Networking & Security
- Amazon CloudFront
- AWS Cloud Quest
- AWS Cloud Practitioner & AI Practitioner learning paths
🪣 Hands-on with Amazon S3
As part of the Day 1 task, I created an S3 bucket and deployed my portfolio website using static website hosting.
The process included:
- Creating an S3 bucket
- Uploading portfolio files
- Configuring static website hosting
- Understanding bucket policies and public access
- Exploring CloudFront
- Connecting S3 with CloudFront
We also had a fun Rhyming Game Contest 🎮 and learned about documenting our work through GitHub Pull Requests, LinkedIn, and DEV.to.
One important takeaway from today:
CGPA can matter, but practical skills, projects, consistency, and the ability to build and learn matter too.
Day 1 was all about understanding the cloud foundation and getting hands-on with AWS. Excited to continue this journey and build more real-world projects! 🚀
