This course will show you how to expand your database and data processing capabilities by leveraging some of the fully managed data processing technologies available through AWS. Filled with practical, real-life examples, this course will cover scalable, next-generation NoSQL database technologies such as DynamoDB, which will help you build fault-tolerant applications and understand the benefits from fully managed SQL services such as RDS, Redshift, and Athena. By the end of the course, viewers will be able to build a fully managed Elastic Database that can be managed with a single click. This will also help you drastically reduce the time it takes to set it up, and also minimize the errors or challenges faced by administrators in real life.
