Opleiding: Developing on AWS plus Jam [GK910009]

OVERVIEW

Design and build secure, reliable, and scalable AWS-based applications.

In this course, you learn how to use the AWS SDK to develop secure and scalable cloud applications using multiple AWS services such as Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Simple Storage Service, and AWS Lambda. You explore how to interact with AWS using code and learn about key concepts, best practices, and troubleshooting tips.

The final day of this course is the Developing on AWS Jam, a gamified activity with teams competing to win by completing a series of hands-on challenges on the AWS platform over the course of the day. Participants will have the opportunity to develop, enhance, and validate skillsets in the AWS Cloud through real-world problem solving

OBJECTIVES

• Set up the AWS SDK and developer credentials for Java, C#/.NET, Python, and JavaScript
• Interact with AWS services and develop solutions by using the AWS SDK
• Use AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) for service authentication
• Use Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and Amazon DynamoDB as data stores
• Integrate applications and data by using AWS Lambda, Amazon API Gateway, Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS), Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS), and AWS Step Functions
• Use Amazon Cognito for user authentication
• Use Amazon ElastiCache to improve application scalability
• Leverage the CI/CD pipeline to deploy applications on AWS
• Final Day of Developing on AWS Jam
• • Hands-on format, putting learners in the driver’s seat to make decisions and solve problems in an active AWS Cloud environment to amplify understanding
  • Develop your  skillsets in the AWS Cloud to advance your cloud adoption journey
  • Reinforce your learning while it’s still fresh in your head
