Cloud Wizard - Advanced Architecting on AWS - 3 days ILT (SAP-C02)

Cloud Wizard Consulting is an AWS Advanced Training Partner and Select Tier Consulting Partner with a track record of training more than 5,000 professionals. Our authorized instructors hold all AWS certifications, bringing deep production experience to every session. Participants in our Advanced Architecting on AWS course achieve a 100% certification pass rate - a testament to our scenario-driven teaching methodology and hands-on approach.

This 3-day instructor-led course is designed for cloud architects, solutions architects, and engineering leads responsible for designing production-grade, enterprise-scale AWS environments. If your team is tasked with building multi-account architectures, migrating complex workloads, or preparing for the AWS Solutions Architect - Professional certification (SAP-C02), this training delivers the skills and confidence to succeed.

Simplify multi-account governance at scale - Learn to manage dozens or hundreds of AWS accounts using AWS Organizations and AWS Control Tower, reducing operational overhead and enforcing consistent security guardrails across your organization.

Design resilient hybrid connectivity - Master AWS Client VPN, Site-to-Site VPN, AWS Direct Connect, and AWS Transit Gateway so your team can connect on-premises data centers to AWS with reduced network complexity. For example, a financial services firm consolidating multiple VPCs can use Transit Gateway to eliminate point-to-point peering and cut routing management effort significantly.

Accelerate application delivery with containers and CI/CD - Deploy containerized workloads on Amazon ECS, Amazon EKS, and AWS Fargate, then automate releases with AWS CodePipeline and CloudFormation StackSets to shorten deployment cycles.

Harden your security posture - Implement DDoS protection with AWS WAF, AWS Shield Advanced, and AWS Network Firewall. Protect sensitive data using AWS KMS, CloudHSM, and Secrets Manager. A healthcare organization requiring HIPAA-compliant account isolation, for instance, can apply these patterns to meet regulatory obligations.

Build analytics-ready data lakes - Design large-scale data stores with AWS Lake Formation, enabling your data teams to query petabytes of structured and unstructured data without managing infrastructure.

Optimize cost and performance at the edge - Leverage Amazon CloudFront and AWS Global Accelerator for low-latency content delivery, and apply AWS cost management tools to right-size resources and reduce spend.

Plan and execute migrations confidently - Apply the 7 Rs migration methodology to assess workloads and select the right path - rehost, replatform, refactor, or retire - reducing migration risk.

Five instructor-guided labs reinforce each module with real-world practice:

• Securing Amazon S3 VPC endpoint communications
• Configuring Transit Gateways for multi-VPC environments
• Deploying applications with Amazon ECS on Fargate
• Setting up a data lake with AWS Lake Formation
• Migrating NFS shares using AWS DataSync and Storage Gateway

The course concludes with a capstone project that challenges you to synthesize everything learned by identifying best-practice solutions for complex, multi-service architectural scenarios.

Participants should have knowledge of core AWS services across Compute, Storage, Networking, and IAM, plus at least one of the following: completion of Architecting on AWS classroom training, the AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate certification, or a minimum of 1 year operating AWS workloads in production.

This course maps directly to the AWS Solutions Architect - Professional (SAP-C02) exam domains, giving participants a structured path from training to certification.
