Welcome to the AWS Developer Associate intensive course! |
Sometimes GitBook doesn't load images correctly. In that case you can always access the course material through GitHub as well:
{% embed url="https://github.com/electron-volt/da-intense-bootcamp" %} GitHub repo {% endembed %}
We will cover the following topics over the next five days:
- Serverless
- Compute services, networking, load balancing
- Infrastructure as Code, object storage, databases
- Containers, Developer tools
- Application integration, security.
We will go through most of the material required to pass the AWS Developer Associate course. The focus is on hands-on labs rather than theory.
Going over this material will prepare you to either work with AWS services related to developing, securing and deploying workloads in AWS and/or pass the AWS Certified Developer Associate exam.
The material covers most - but by no means all - of what you need to pass the exam, but you will be in a much better position to start learning more theory once you've gotten some hands-on experience with the services first.
We assume familiarity with some basic cloud computing concepts such as
- Elasticity, high availability, scalability, fault-tolerance.
We also assume students have some high-level understanding of the following AWS concepts:
- Global infrastructure of AWS: regions, availability zones
- The basics of IAM: users, groups, policies, roles.
Next up is a quick primer on these AWS concepts. You can skip it if you already know the concepts mentioned above.
