AWS Cloud Computing Foundation
AWS Cloud Computing Foundation will give you the training required to manage enterprise level serverless IT infrastructures in a DevOps environment. The course is intended for those just starting their career in computing, so the pace is intentionally slower to accommodate beginners.
AWS Cloud Computing Foundation is built to prepare Sysops administrators, systems administrators, and those in a DevOps role who want to learn how to create automatable and repeatable deployments of applications, networks, and systems on the AWS platform.
It offers all the building blocks you need to master AWS DevOps Cloud Computing.
During the first 4 weeks of the class, we will build a solid foundation by learning the essential AWS services. During the following 8 weeks, you will learn how to build, provision, and administer Infrastructure as code as an AWS Infrastructure DevOps Engineer.
