AWS for Developers

In the course AWS for Developers from SpiralTrain participants learn to use Amazon Web Services (AWS) for the development of Cloud Applications and Services.

AWS Intro

The course AWS for Developers kicks off with an overview of the key services offered by AWS. This includes Compute, Storage and Free Services as well as Virtual Servers. The AWS Architecture, availability zones and the pricing model are also discussed.

EC2 Instances

Then it is time for a coverage of the use of EC2 instances. EC2 instances are VPCs that are based on Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) but that can be set up entirely at your own discretion. Making connections, allocating storage and the security of EC2 are treated.

Elastic Beanstalk

Next the AWS orchestration service Elastic Beanstalk on which applications can be deployed is discussed. EBS supports various programming languages ​​and offers services such as load balancing, auto scaling and security with a firewall.

AWS Data Access

The use of databases in the AWS Cloud is also part of the program of the course. The Relational Database Service is central to this and links to databases such as MySQL and PostgreSQL are covered. Attention is also paid to NoSQL databases and to the creation and management of S3 Storage Buckets.

AWS Lambda

AWS also supports serverless computing with AWS Lambda. It is explained that serverless computing does not mean that no servers are used, but that the management of servers is completely taken off your hands by AWS. Next the response to events, automatic scaling and orchestration of functions is treated.

Virtual Networks

Finally attention is paid to setting up Virtual Networks in the AWS Cloud. This includes AWS Networking with Elastic IP Addresses, Internet Gateways, Security Groups and Network Address Translation.
