Architecting on AWS covers the fundamentals of building IT infrastructure on AWS. The course is designed to teach solutions architects how to optimize the use of the AWS cloud by understanding AWS services and how these services fit into cloud-based solutions.

Because architectural solutions may differ depending on industry, type of applications, and size of business, this course emphasizes AWS cloud best practices and recommended design patterns to help students think through the process of architecting optimal IT solutions on AWS.

It also presents case studies throughout the course that showcase how some AWS customers have designed their infrastructures and the strategies and services they implemented.

Opportunities to build a variety of infrastructures via a guided, hands-on approach are also provided.
