DESIGNED FROM SCRATCH FOR SAA-C02 (APRIL 2020 UPDATE)
by Adrian Cantrill (formely Linux Academy)
I've designed the course for the new version of the AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate (SAA-C02) certification released on March 23rd, 2020. Rather than updating existing content, I've created a course which directly aligns with the new structure, products, services and architectures contained in the SAA-C02 exam. In addition to SAA-C02, the course provides everything you need for the older SAA-C01 exam too. My commitment to you is this course is up to date when you enrol, and I'll keep it that way for a single lifetime enrolment fee.

SUITABLE FOR

IT newcomers or anyone looking to change careers.
Experienced Engineers or Consultants
IT Managers looking to understand their platforms and Environments
Project Managers running or involved with AWS Projects
REQUIREMENTS

No previous AWS Knowledge required
Laptop or Workstation to perform the demo lessons
An email address and credit/debit card for the AWS account(s)
The course stays mostly within the free tier to avoid costs
WHAT MAKES THIS COURSE DIFFERENT

PRODUCTION VALUES: The course includes best of class theory, architecture and practical demo lessons. Everything in the course is there for a reason, is produced to a high standard and aids in your learning

ALWAYS CONSIDERS COST: The course starts with by helping you create and setup AWS accounts which you will use for your study. These will benefit from the free-tier giving you free access to AWS products and services up to a certain monthly level.

SUITABLE FOR ANYONE: You don't need any AWS experience; the course starts by introducing cloud computing and AWS fundamentals at a basic level - ensuring that no student is left behind. What you will need is a computer, an email address and payment card to create the AWS account and a commitment to put in the effort required to pass a challenging exam.
LEARN REAL SKILLS: This course isn't just about the exam, the AWS Certified Solutions Architect is one of the most valuable certifications available in IT - but obtaining $100,000+ cloud positions will require experience as well as accreditation. By the end of the course, you will be prepared to pass the exam confidently while also having gained enough experience to use AWS day to day and design AWS solutions.

SCENARIO BASED: The course is based around a real-world like organisation Animals4life.org. The theory and demo lessons are structured around scenarios which you will encounter in the real world. Whether we're talking about serverless applications, data migration and connecting AWS to on-premises environments using a Site-to-Site VPN - the things you learn will be useful in the real world.

RESPECTS YOUR TIME: I promise to respect your time. Everything in the course is either relevant to the exam, or will provide the surrounding knowledge which will help you pass with confidence; while also gaining the practical experience needed to get access to exciting job opportunities. Lessons are never more than 20 minutes and often much shorter - I prioritise efficiency, not duration. Each section includes a quiz helping you retain knowledge, and at the end of the course, we've designed a full practice exam which mirrors real-world conditions.

TECHNICAL FOUNDATIONS AND AWS: The course covers the essential architectural concepts as they relate to AWS but also covers the core AWS products featured in the exam in some depth. Topics covered include:-

Identity and Access Management (IAM)
Simple Storage Service (S3)
Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
Autoscaling and Launch Templates
Database Solutions including DynamoDB, RDS and Aurora
Application Services (SNS, SQS, Kinesis, IOT, SES, Step Functions)
Serverless Architecture (Lambda & API Gateway)
Monitoring, Deployment and Security
ALWAYS ACCURATE/ALWAYS UP TO DATE: I pride accuracy and so commit to keeping the content up to date with regular updates as AWS announces new products or features. Updates will be included in your one-time course purchase so you can study at your own pace.

By the end of this course, you will be able to confidently pass the associate-level AWS Certified Solutions Architect exam and start getting access to some of the best paying careers in the industry.
