Learn the fundamentals of cloud computing while being introduced to compute power, security, storage, networking, messaging, and management services in the cloud.
The cloud is perfect for hosting static websites that only include HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files that require no server-side processing. In this project, you will deploy a static website to AWS. First, you will create a S3 bucket, configure the bucket for website hosting, and secure it using IAM policies. Next, you will upload the website files to your bucket and speed up content delivery using AWS’s content distribution network service, CloudFront. Lastly, you will access your website in a browser using the unique S3 endpoint.

Design and deploy scalable, extendable, and maintainable full stack applications using modern cloud architecture.
In this project, you will develop a cloud-based application for uploading, listing, and filtering images. You will use Node.js/Express, a popular Javascript framework for networked application development. You will implement a REST API to issue commands using HTTP, store data in Amazon Web Services Relational Data Service (RDS) and S3, extend the codebase with secure authentication signon features, and deploy to Amazon Web Services Elastic Beanstalk. These are the hard skills you’ll need in any Cloud developer role.

Learn best practices on how to develop and deploy microservices, with a focus on different microservice architecture patterns, independent scaling, resiliency, securing microservices, and best practices for monitoring and logging.
In this project, you will take an existing application named Udagram and refactor it into a microservice architecture with lean services. You will build out a CI/CD process that automatically builds and deploys Docker images to a Kubernetes cluster. The Kubernetes cluster will be configured to help solve common challenges related to scale and security.

Learn both 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.
In this project, you will develop an Instagram-like serverless service for uploading, listing, and filtering images. You’ll build serverless REST APIs using API Gateway and AWS Lambda, a stack of serverless technologies on AWS. You will then store data in AWS DynamoDB and S3, secure your application with authentication, and deploy it to Amazon Web Services using Serverless framework.

In the capstone project, you’ll build an application of your choice on AWS based on predefined criteria. You will define the scope of the project, come up feature list and decide which AWS services to use to meet availability and performance criteria
