Excellent presentation. Thanks

5 years old. Concepts are valid I guess.

By Jeremy Oosthuizen on 11/7/2020

Towards the middle of the course I thought it was too detailed for the amount of horizontal area it's covering. AWS has a myriad of features, and you can't possibly learn all of it over the course of a few hours. I had a hard time figuring out why they went into the minutia of some features, while I was expecting more of an overview, or at least an explanation of why those were picked. The final modules felt a little more balanced.

By Hassan Dhouti on 11/1/2020

Lots of content covered. I feel as though I was exposed to a lot of AWS fundamentals. Think it'll probably help to watch another time or two.

By Amit Kumar on 10/23/2020

Need to ask more questions in Quiz at least 10 in each Quiz and knowledge check which will help us in AWS assessments.

The EC2 Module voice was totally off. The pause and stress are in wrong places. I could not follow.

By Mark Graham on 10/21/2020

There was a large amount of information to consume in 3 1/2 hour. If the labs could have presented the information slower, especially for the first two labs, they would have been easier to understand.
