Explore cloud concepts, define cloud computing, and examine history, advantages, limitations, myths, and service models, then gain hands-on labs with EC2, S3, and serverless computing using Lambda.
Define cloud concepts, trace the history of cloud computing, compare advantages and limitations, debunk myths, and explore cloud service models.
Cloud computing provides on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable resources—servers, storage, applications, and services—via the internet with pay-as-you-go pricing and high availability across public, private, and hybrid models.
Trade upfront capital expense for variable cloud spend, pay as you go, and scale capacity quickly to gain speed and agility while managing security and latency limits.
Identify the three cloud service models IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS with examples like EC2 and Office 365, and highlight data as a service and disaster recovery as a service.
Contrast on-premise servers with a cloud virtual server to show upfront costs, time to market, and monthly operating costs, highlighting cloud benefits like zero startup cost and quick provisioning.
Explore the explosive growth of cloud computing, led by AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, with spending projected to 332.3 billion in 2021 and rising demand for cloud engineers.
Explore Amazon IWC's history and services, learn to sign up for a free account, and build hands-on with EC2, S3, and Lambda to deploy serverless apps.
Explore how Amazon Web Services leads the cloud market with 200-plus services, including IaaS EC2 and SaaS via the AWS marketplace, while global regions and availability zones enable rapid growth.
Learn how to sign up for a free Amazon AWS account and use the 12-month free tier, including 750 hours of Linux app, through signup and verification.
Explore Amazon EC2, the elastic cloud compute service for provisioning cloud servers quickly. Learn pay-as-you-go pricing with on-demand, spot and savings plans, plus ami images and LightSail options.
Follow step-by-step instructions to create a free tier Windows virtual machine on EC2, enabling you to practice hands-on cloud computing with remote desktop setup.

I designed this course for complete beginners to learn the fundamentals of cloud computing. We will first start off the course by examining some fundamental concepts that cloud computing such as:
Cloud deployment models
The advantages and limitations of cloud computing
Cloud service models
The definition of cloud computing as well as a brief history
In the next section of the course, we will examine the current state of the cloud computing market. We will look at the overlay growth of cloud computing and its impact on the IT job market.
Following this, we will look at Amazon AWS, who is the learning provider in the cloud computing market. I will show you how to sign up for an AWS trial account and how to perform basic navigation within the system. I will also show you how to use some of the core services, such as Amazon EC2 and S3. In the last part of the section, we will discuss serverless computing and the AWS Lambda service.
By the end of this course, you will be well versed in the fundamentals of cloud computing and will have some hands on experience with Amazon AWS. Now is the perfect time to get started with cloud computing, so get started today!
