Welcome to the Part 1 AWS Solutions Architect Associate Course!

If you are interested in becoming a cloud architect, you have come to the right place!

An architect is responsible for translating the business requirements into a solution blueprint

And also provide implementation guidance to the development team

To effectively play this role, you need a breadth of understanding of AWS services and how to integrate them into a complete solution

In this course, we walk through several business scenarios and how to apply cloud architectural principles

Such as avoiding a single point of failure, properly securing and protecting your workload, designing for high availability, and so forth

I am Chandra Lingam, and I am your instructor.

I have structured the curriculum into two courses

The first course (this one) covers infrastructure services such as network, server, monitoring, storage, load balancers, auto-scaling, cloud security, S3, managing your application traffic flow with services such as Route 53, CloudFront, Global Accelerator, and we wrap up with migrate your application to the cloud

The second course (this one) covers messaging services, lambda, API Gateway, databases, containers, cloudformation, and disaster recovery concepts

Here is the approximate time you need to plan to spend on preparation.

The first course is around 15 hours long and the second course is around 9 hours long

I recommend adjusting the video playback speed to 1.25x

So, you can watch all the videos in around 20 hours

And for the hands-on labs and quizzes, add another 20 hours

So, plan to spend at least 40 hours on preparation

The time will vary based on your experience – but you can use this as a ballpark

I also provide PDFs to review specific concepts quickly

Something unique I offer my students is the weekly study group sessions where you can meet fellow learners and discuss specific topics

With the knowledge you gain in this course, you will become a really good architect and easily clear the certification exam!

I am looking forward to meeting you!
