Great course. Practical, precise. No theory where student is assumed to know the basics of AWS. This makes it more appealing. Many data security considerations not shows. Public S3 buckets, photos, likely unnecessary AWS charges etc. All APIs are public, open to the world to use (and likely exploit)

By Jose D Grimaldo Garcia on 6/4/2020

El curso esta muy completo, el instructor explica de forma muy clara los principales componentes de los servicios que ofrece AWS, sin embargo, muchos de los recurso usados durante el curso ya se encuentran actualizados y esto impacta el funcionamiento de algunas actividades

By Michael Singaram Murugan on 3/21/2020

The entire course is 3 years old. Lot of things has been changed in the past years in aws... Dhiman's course is outdated.. n at some parts dhiman didn't update proper code for the students. And it is definitely not for beginners. You need some sort of development knowledge. I hope he answer the questions asked by his confused lost students in the comment section n update the course as lot of things has been changed in AWS.

I love how you structured the course (demo and code) and most importantly you showed how to use the technology. Most of the course that I've seen and taken lack the latter part.

By Miguel Cabral on 7/5/2018

It is exactly what I was looking for: a quick and clear introduction to AWS Rekognition. Even though AWS has changed a little bit since the video was recorded, it is still very easy to follow and all the code works as expected!

By Priyank Bolia on 5/21/2018

This is not in depth explanation of Amazon Rekognition, but just some simple project made using Amazon Rekognition. The projects are also not well designed and mostly repetitive tasks, and security aspect is left for user to figure out. Most of the projects code is easily available online and this course is just a basic walkthrough of the code with just simple API usage shown. At least I can't understand what are collection, and where they are stored, and if stored by Amazon what is the cost and size limitations. Topics like real-time face recognition, Text in Image recognition were left. No comparison of Rekognition with Google, no discussion on features and pricing. No topics on integrating with other AWS services like Kinesis, etc. The 2 star is for at least dealing with Elastic search, otherwise all the projects are too simple and Amazon documentation has better knowledge and code sample for most of the things.

Really informative course. The instructor communicated clearly with simple explanation and illustrations. Every concept was explained with clear examples which covered every basic information. Its easy to practice and add our own thoughts. Overall the course is very useful and helpful.

By Abhijit Sinha on 7/22/2017

Excellent course! It is very informative. It is structured so well that it provides essential knowledge needed to get started and goes in depth as the course progresses.

By Arjun Chakraborty on 7/22/2017

This course is comprehensive..instructor assumes little prior knowledge and takes you through the concepts to a advanced level of proficiency. He doesnt miss a step from the environment setup to the sample application scenarios. Definetly worth the money if building a new skillset is important to you!
