Why I built this course?
Aurora is complex and architecturally very different from the databases available in the market. When I started to learn it, the biggest challenge was the non availability of Aurora specific information. The only source of information is the Amazon Aurora documentation website which in my humble opinion is not the most effective way to learn. It took me quite sometime to wrap my head around Aurora's architecture and features; the tutorials in the documentation involve manual steps, mostly on the console, as a result they are not easy to follow. Long story short, for folks new to Aurora (& Postgres) learning Aurora can be daunting.
Based on my personal experience with learning Aurora Postgres, I decided to put together this course to help others get up to speed with Aurora in minimum possible time. So if I have to describe in one line, why I built this course - "It is to accelerate students learning".
