Developing on AWS
(AWS-DEV)

Are you a software developer looking to further your knowledge of AWS and their cloud-based system? We have created this course with intermediate-level developers in mind to give them a better understanding of AWS, and how to use their SDK (software development kit). The AWS SDK is a kit for browser-based development, this allows developers to access AWS through running code (usually JavaScript) in a browser.

Along with learning the key concepts of AWS, the best practices, and how to troubleshoot, we will also teach you Identity and Access Management (iAM), Amazon storage systems, how to use identity framework for authentication, using ElastiCache for application scalability. 3 months of lab access is also included with this course.
