Course Overview
Architecting on AWS – Accelerator is designed for audiences who can learn and understand new information at a rapid pace. This course covers various aspects of how to architect for the cloud over 5days. It covers topics from the Architecting on AWS and Advanced Architecting on AWS courses to offer a consolidated course in cloud architecture. Architectural solutions differ depending on industry, types of applications, and business size. AWS Authorized Instructors emphasize best practices using the AWS Well- Architected Framework and guide you through the process of designing optimal IT solutions based on real-life scenarios. The modules focus on compute, storage, database, networking, security, monitoring, automation, containers, serverless architecture, edge services, and backup and recovery. They also focus on
optimization, the benefits of loose coupling applications and serverless components, building for resilience, and understanding costs. Using hands-on labs, you will apply knowledge from lectures to gain skills.
Course Objectives
In this course, you will learn to:
• Relate AWS architectural principles to make architectural decisions
• Apply AWS services to make your infrastructure scalable, reliable, secure, and highly available.
• Explore how to manage AWS services to provide greater flexibility and resiliency in an
infrastructure.
• Determine how to make an infrastructure based on AWS more efficient to increase performance
and reduce costs.
• Apply the Well-Architected Framework to improve architectures with AWS solutions.
