Description

In this course we would implement an AWS Landing Zone using AWS Control Tower service. We would start with a discussion to understand the challenges in managing multiple AWS accounts and the proposed solution of landing zone to solve this problem.

We would learn the concepts of AWS Landing Zone & AWS Control Tower in depth and have a practical hands on to implement one of our own. We would also explore the concepts of AWS Organization, IAM Identity Center and go through several demos to understand its implementations.

Landing Zone is one of the primary steps in migration of On-premises environments to cloud. It is strongly recommended for intermediate or advanced level of engineers who work on cloud or are involved in migration projects.

For beginners with experience more that 6+ months to 1 yr, its good to know the upcoming technology or trend and stay a level ahead in competition.

The intention of this curriculum is not only to understand the AWS Landing Zone concept but also to have practical hands-on experience. Take time to build the labs as that is what will build the confidence before you take your next interview or go for the next opportunity.

Cheers to Champions.
Shyam Kukreja.
