Lesson 2
Getting Help
You are starting a challenging but rewarding journey! Take 5 minutes to read how to get help with projects and content.
The cloud has become a key enabler for innovation with beneficial features like high availability, unlimited capacity, and on-demand scalability and elasticity. Learn the fundamentals of cloud computing while being introduced to compute power, security, storage, networking, messaging, and management services in the cloud. While learning the fundamentals, you will explore tools and services offered by Amazon Web Services(AWS) through interactive, hands-on exercises. By the end of the course, you will have deployed your first website to AWS.
Lesson 1
Cloud Computing
In this lesson, you will learn the basics of cloud computing including cloud deployment models, benefits, and popular AWS options.
Lesson 2
Servers in the Cloud and Compute Services
Learn why we need servers, compute power, and security.
Lesson 3
Storage & Content Delivery
Learn why we need storage and content delivery in the cloud.
Lesson 4
Security
Learn the importance of security in the cloud.
Lesson 5
Networking & Elasticity

Lesson 6
Messaging & Containers
Learn the basics of messaging and containers in the cloud.
Lesson 7
AWS Management
Learn why we need logging, auditing, and resource management in the cloud.
Lesson 8 • Project
Deploy Static Website on AWS
In this project, you will deploy a static website to AWS.
Explore the foundational concepts of designing and deploying scalable, extendable, and maintainable full-stack applications using modern cloud architecture.
Lesson 1
Introduction to Full Stack Apps on AWS
Review the prerequisites and technical requirements and learn more about what you'll be building.
Lesson 2
REST API Development
You'll learn how to create REST APIs, focusing on client-server communication, URL anatomy, request types, and headers.
Lesson 3
Developing with Cloud Databases and Storage
Explore using AWS RDS and S3 in Node.js apps, covering database setup, data storage, object storage, and integrating AWS services.
Lesson 4
Deploying Applications on AWS
In this lesson you will learn the process of configuring, deploying, and launching your applications to AWS.
Lesson 5
Securing AWS Applications
You'll explore securing full stack apps on AWS, focusing on password storage, user authentication, implementing Node.js authentication, and secret storage.
Lesson 6
AWS Frontend Development
Build a React app that communicates with a backend service and deploy it to Elastic Beanstalk. Use Axios for HTTP requests, handle user authentication, fetch data, and manage app state.
Lesson 7 • Project
Image Processing Microservice on AWS
In this project, you will develop a cloud-based application for uploading and processing images!
Microservices are becoming the default mode of developing and deploying applications at scale. Microservices architecture makes it easier to scale an application to a large system and is a great enabler for continuous integration and delivery. The microservices architecture allows independent scaling, independent releases and deployments, and independent development so that each service has its own codebase. In this course, we will cover the best practices on how to develop and deploy microservices. You will learn topics such as different microservice architecture patterns, independent scaling, resiliency, service replication, service registration, and discovery. By the end of this course, you should be able to design and build an application using a microservice architecture.
Lesson 1
Introduction to Microservices
Using microservices is both a technical and business decision. In this lesson you will learn about the use cases that caused microservices to become popular.
Lesson 2
Microservices Design Principles and Best Practices
When applied correctly, microservice architecture can deliver great business value. In this lesson, we will compare microservices and monoliths and discuss best practices for refactoring.
Lesson 3
Containers Using Docker
Applications are often deployed in containers. In this lesson we'll learn why we use containers and how to use Docker to build our applications to be deployed as containers
Lesson 4
Automating the Application Development Lifecycle
In this lesson, we'll learn about why the industry embraces Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment and how Docker helps streamline the process
Lesson 5
Orchestration with Kubernetes
Kubernetes is a powerful tool that is often used to deploy containers. In this lesson we’ll learn about why we would consider using Kubernetes and to deploy our applications
Lesson 6
Best Practices/Design Patterns for Kubernetes in Production
In this lesson we'll learn some of the best practices for running your application in Kubernetes including logging, scale, and security
Lesson 7 • Project
Refactor Monolith to Microservices and Deploy
In this project, you will take an existing application named Udagram and refactor it into a microservice architecture with lean services and deploy it using Kubernetes.
Serverless technologies have become very popular recently because they can increase the speed of development and drastically reduce the cost of running a cloud infrastructure. This course combines the theory of using serverless technologies with the practice of developing a complex serverless application and focuses on learning by doing. You will learn advanced serverless features such as implementing WebSockets and stream processing and learn about serverless best practices throughout the course.
Lesson 1
Developing and Deploying Serverless
Introduction to Developing and Deploying Serverless Applications
Lesson 2
Introduction to Serverless
Introduction to the course, and Introduction to Serverless
Lesson 3
REST API
In this lesson, we will cover the development of REST APIL for a group of images, how to store data in DynamoDB and build a web app using React.
Lesson 4
Event Processing
In this lesson you will learn about event processing using Serverless. We will focus on processing different event types with Lambda functions.
Lesson 5
Implementing Authentication
In this lesson, we cover authentication and authorization using Serverless. We will cover Authentication, OAuth, Auth0 protocols.
Lesson 6 • Project
Develop and Deploy with AWS Lambda
In this project, you will create a simple TODO application using AWS Lambda and Serverless framework.
