AWS 101 for Enterprise | VA
Thursday, May 17, 2012
Amazon Web Services is proud to present a series of one-day intensive workshops on designing applications and implementations for Amazon Web Services (See the registration link at the right of this page for dates). This workshop is intended to provide hands on experience with best practices for building robust, highly available applications on AWS.
Prerequisites
This class is an introductory course, but all students are expected to come to class with the following:
- An AWS account with a credit card associated with it that you have control of (please no shared accounts)
- Previous Amazon EC2 experience is recommended
- A notebook computer with Wi-Fi or 3G access
- Administrator access to the computer, if Windows
- A modern browser (IE6 will not work)
This class is intended for those with limited experience on AWS and for those that have a general interest in the use/implementation of the basic building blocks:
- Elastic Compute Capacity (EC2)
- Simple Storage (S3)
- Elastic Load Balancing (ELB)
- Auto Scaling
- Cloud Watch (Monitoring)
- Security
The course will include a general overview of the platform and then we’ll quickly launch into a hands-on workshop leveraging these key components.
***Attendees will be provided a $25 AWS Credit/Coupon that will accommodate the work for the day***
