Requirements

Even total IT or AWS beginners can learn without needing prerequisite training or knowledge.

Description

This course is a legacy course. The UI of the AWS console in this course is an old version.

Through this Udemy course, complete beginners of both AWS and IT in general will learn how to implement practical IT infrastructure through AWS architecture configurations step by step. We will complete a working system building each piece together through lectures and demonstrations.

This course was created with the aim of helping users build their own basic IT architecture using AWS, even for those with no knowledge of AWS and or of IT. In this course, even a super beginner will learn about AWS and be able to put it into practice, building a full-scale architecture configuration yourself

[Learning steps of this course]

1. You will gain a solid understanding of IT and infrastructure.

2. Then you will learn the characteristics of AWS and the necessary services.

3. Using AWS service, you will build your own full architecture online.

[Outline of course contents]

Starting with understanding the role of a server, you will learn how to set up your own server instance using AWS’ EC2. It is here we will launch our own web server

Domain settings and Route53

Learn about domains, URLs and the role of the DNS server. Use AWS’ Route53 to actually register your own domain.

RDS set up

Learn the fundamentals of databases and SQL commands. The set up our own RDS as a WORDPRESS website database

Utilization of S3

Configure S3 to act as storage for our WORDPRESS site content.

Redundant configuration using ELB and Auto Scaling

Use ELB and Auto Scaling to improve our WORDPRESS website’s configuration, creating a reliable redundant architectural configuration.

Content distribution with CloudFront and ACM

Set global content distribution using CloudFront, and learn about implementing secure HTTPS.communication with SSL / TLS certificates with ACM.

Implementation of operation management

Check the services used to manage the operation of your AWS services, and set up CloudWatch and billing management tools.
