– Explore the business value of AWS monitoring solutions.
– Identify the role of monitoring, event driven load balancing, and auto scaling responses, based on usage and needs.
– Identify and discuss AWS automation tools that will help you build, maintain and evolve your infrastructure.
– Discuss network peering, VPC endpoints, gateway and routing solutions based on use-cases.
– Discuss hybrid networking configurations to extend and secure your infrastructure.
– Discuss the benefits of microservices as an effective decoupling strategy to power highly available applications at scale.
– Explore AWS container services for the rapid implementation of an infrastructure-agnostic, portable application environment.
– Identify the business and security benefits of AWS serverless services based on business examples.
– Practice building a serverless infrastructure in a lab environment.
– Discuss the ways in which AWS edge services address latency and security.
– Practice building a CloudFront deployment with an S3 backend in a lab environment.
– Explore AWS backup, recovery solutions, and best practices to ensure resiliency and business continuity.
