Running applications on AWS is one thing. Managing, monitoring, and governing them is the real challenge.

As your AWS environment grows, you can't manage everything by clicking in the console. You need to automate, monitor, and enforce compliance. How do you provision resources consistently? How do you track every change? How do you monitor performance and costs across multiple accounts?

This is where the AWS Management and Governance services become the most important tools in your toolkit.

This course is built to teach you these critical services in the most practical way possible: with hands-on, over-the-shoulder lab demos.

We skip the long, boring theory and get straight into the AWS console to show you how to use these services. This is not a "what is" course; this is a "how-to" course. You will see me build, configure, and run solutions using the essential services for any well-run AWS environment.

You will get practical, hands-on demos of:

  • AWS CloudFormation: Go beyond the console and learn to deploy and manage your entire infrastructure as code using templates.

  • Amazon CloudWatch: Master the art of monitoring. We'll set up dashboards, create custom metrics, and configure alarms to watch your resource performance.

  • AWS CloudTrail: Become an auditor. Learn how to track every single API call and user activity in your account for security and compliance.

  • AWS Config: Enforce compliance by setting up rules to continuously monitor and record all your AWS resource configurations.

  • AWS Organizations: Learn how to centrally manage and govern multiple AWS accounts from one single place.

  • AWS Auto Scaling: Configure your applications to automatically scale up and down based on demand, saving you money and ensuring performance.

  • AWS Service Catalog: Create a curated portfolio of approved IT services for your organization to use.

Who is this course for?

  • DevOps Engineers, Cloud Engineers, and SysAdmins.

  • Solutions Architects who need to design well-governed solutions.

  • Security and Compliance specialists.
