AWS Essentials

Get oriented in AWS fast — the dozen services that cover most real workloads, how they fit together, and how to avoid the bill surprises.

What you’ll learn

• Core compute: EC2, Lambda, and when each is the right call
• Storage and databases: S3, EBS, RDS, DynamoDB
• Networking basics: VPC, subnets, security groups
• IAM: users, roles and least-privilege that actually works
• Monitoring and logging with CloudWatch
• Cost control: tagging, budgets and the usual money leaks

Who it’s for

Developers, IT generalists and technical founders who need to be productive in AWS without spending a month in the docs.
