Is a good introduction/overview to AWS cloud computing... Explanations are clear and the professor looks knowledgeable on the matter. But you need to keep taking more AWS courses after this intro...

A very, very introduction, I expected some more examples for each service introduced to understand them. It should be adviced to have deep knowledge in system administration before start this course.

The course is well structured. If you are planning for a certification or want to know what is there in Amazon, this course is going to be really helpful. I believe he has rehearsed almost every single word he uttered, as there is nothing unimportant or repeating. I see a lot of well planned, hard work in this course which brings a very good clarity in very less time.

Very easy to follow in bite-sized chunks. I had no knowledge of AWS but wanted an overall understanding of the concept as it is used in the company I worked at. This course gave me just the right amount of knowledge to understand what AWS essentially is.

The teacher knows how to engage with students. He has real life practical examples one can use, rather than baseless abstract ideas which are strange to beginners. He has a steady pace which allows you enough time to test his ideas. You will not feel the need to pause or replay. He is brilliant!

Excellent course. Instructor was able to explain all the KEY CONCEPTS and Terminologies. I find it quite easy to follow and have a good grasp of the Cloud Computing. Demo exercises were also very useful. Thanks again for a great training course. Much appreciated. And BEST WISHES.

Yes understandable and easy path to learning an unknown subject in a clear way. I never heard such extraordinary explanation lectures in my past and this introduction course will help to know what is AWS and how to work on AWS with excellent demos and examples.
By Venkateswaran on 6/21/2020
Good but certain topics like configuration management, JSON instance, stack management etc. which are specific to developers could have been explained as a basic course or links routing to basic understanding would have helped for a beginner working as a consultant without hands-on experience on development cycles. NoSQL was explained well. Similar explanation for other concepts would have helped.

I have learned a lot in the course, I always wanted to have an overview of what is happening in the cloud industry and now I can say i can have a conversion with AWS Specialists. I now understand the terminology behind AWS. Thank you so much. I am definitely taking the full course.
By Dipto Chakrabarty on 11/5/2018
Really good course , I had just started using a free tier instance in amazon and was confused about what all I could do with it . This really gave me an idea about what resources I have in aws and how to further implement them.
