AWS Tutorial:AWS Solutions Architect & SysOps Administrator!

Explain on-premises infrastructure and compare infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, and software as a service, outlining provider responsibilities and customer software management.

Learn Linux basics essential for cloud learning, including user management, file operations (create, copy, move, delete), file permissions, package management, and filesystem concepts (creating and monitoring volumes).

Learn to create a free tier AWS account, set up a database, validate email and phone, provide a valid card, and review basic service and billing limits to avoid charges.

Develop a strong desire to adopt a cloud model by mapping goals and target dates with mind maps, and commit to perseverance through the AWS solutions architect journey.

Explore AWS regions as a global cloud infrastructure with data centers across geographic locations. Learn the naming conventions used to identify each region.

Explore how Amazon EC2 creates virtual machines from physical servers using virtualization, exposing AMI images with public IP access to run business apps in the cloud.

Create and launch a Linux EC2 instance in AWS, configure a key pair, access via SSH using the public IP, and understand default Linux usernames for different distributions.

Learn how to launch a Windows EC2 instance in AWS, choose the Windows Server AMI, configure storage and tags, and connect via remote desktop using the decrypted administrator password.

Configure and provision an EC2 instance by selecting the OS, instance type, CPU, memory, and storage, then set the key pair, security group, and access via public IP.

Explore EC2 pricing models—on-demand, reserved, spot, and dedicated hosts—featuring hourly pay-as-you-go billing and options for unpredictable and predictable workloads.

Learn networking basics: identify IP addresses, subnets, and public vs private IP, understand protocols, ports, services, and how gateways and routing tables route data between servers.

Build your own data center by planning network topology and configurations, establishing public and private networks, configuring switches and gateways, and securing server connectivity.

Create a custom VPC with a subnet and route table, then attach an internet gateway. Launch an Amazon Linux EC2 instance in this subnet, enable public IP, and test connectivity.

Compare private and public subnets in a VPC, showing how public subnets use the internet gateway for internet access and how private subnets rely on a NAT gateway for connectivity.

Learn to configure VPC peering between two VPCs, create subnets and route tables, attach routes, establish peering connections, and verify inter-VPC communication.

Explore how to design a virtual private network between a VPC and a corporate data center, using private and public subnets, customer gateways, and redundant VPN connections for secure access.

Learn to access EC2 instance metadata from the AWS console and command line, retrieving instance state, type, private IP, public IP, and deployment configuration.

learn how to bootstrap an EC2 instance by using user data to automatically install and start a web server on port 80, configure security groups, and verify public accessibility.

this lecture compares public IP and elastic IP in AWS, showing how public IP changes after stop/start while elastic IP remains permanent when attached.

Learn to deploy EC2 instances in a VPC, select subnets, use AMIs and EBS volumes, and configure security groups, route tables, internet gateway, and elastic IPs.

Explore Elastic Block Store (EBS) volumes for EC2, including general purpose SSD and throughput-optimized HDD; create, attach, and snapshot volumes while understanding availability and durability.

Master how to create EBS snapshots, monitor their progress, and restore data by creating a new volume from the snapshot and attaching it to an instance for testing.

Create a cloud watch dashboard to consolidate utilization metrics from multiple instances in a single window, add widgets, and configure metrics for centralized monitoring.
