Spring Framework DevOps on AWS (Udemy.com)

I feel like it miss somes things like connecting the jenkins server to the production server for automaticaly update the jar file and the service and restart it automaticaly. I've havent seen an enterprise project where we have to connect on the production server to manually update the application service and lunch it after git release for exemple. But for the rest of this courses it's perfect and i've enjoyed following your instructions. As a French guy who's not really good in english, i was impressed by your accent, which is really easy to understand !

As usual, another great course by John Thompson. I recommend it a lot for starter with AWS and dedicated servers in general (which is not my case). Anyway I have discovered Artifactory inside these video, and it is a good point. I am using Apache Archiva since 2009 which could be a great tool too. For Docker, I recommend you to get the John formation on Udemy "Docker for Java Developers" : https://www.udemy.com/course/docker-for-java-developers/ Thanks John!

Good course to start learning AWS and deploying spring boot application to cloud. It covers such features as Jenkins, Artifactory, Docker, MySQL, EC2, RDS, Route 53 and some other. I had to use non-free tier t3.small for Jenkins and t3.medium for Artifactory to start them correctly (heap memory problems). I like the course. Owesome!

Going to the videos section was really easy. However, I found initially a bit difficult to get the resources section where the GitHub repositories are. The course include essential code security best practices that all developers should follow. Overall, the course is good and I learned a lot from it.

Very well put together. Instructor really knows the material well, and it shows. Appreciated him not just editing out issues he had, but explaining the what/why of problems that came up as he was running through the material. It really helped me feel less confused with some of the issues I was having (mainly caused by newer versions of software, etc... to be expected...) Being a corporate trainer myself, I can appreciate the time and energy it takes to put together such a rich, thoughtful and well laid out curriculum. Well done, sir! Can't wait to get through some of the other courses with this instructor!

This course is amazing! It helped me so much to learn my way around accessing and working in the AWS EC2 environment and getting my spring boot service deployed there. This course gives step by step detailed instructions that you can use to take your application from your laptop to the cloud.

Great! Getting a ton of good stuff out of this course! Fantastic - I think I learned more really useful stuff in this course than any other! Thanks for the great job. This is the kind of stuff that has always remained the smoke and mirrors part of dev ops. Probably because in the past there was no systematic way of doing all this setup, every setup was different and required quite a bit of hacking to get it to work. I probably spent half my time as a developer just trying to get things configured properly because everything was always changing. This AWS concept is really going to shake things up - who would go and buy hardware ever again, except Amazon - let them do it!

The main value of this course is in the small tips the lecturer gives in each lesson. The code repository is impeccable. On the side of things I'd like to see added is how to spin up a dedicated git server (ie. GitLab, Bitbucket), as in the enterprise world that is the norm. On addition to that I'd like to see more about security group configuration so that the created instances could communicate with each other and not with the outside world. One of the subjects I appreciated the most is the AWS management aspect of the course, as I had never used it, and now I can create instances quickly and confidently.

This course was a fantastic final piece in the Spring course series. There is a lot of information in this course and I plan to watch is several times as it will serve as a great refresher for the deployment aspect of Spring applications. My only criticism is that there were a few configuration steps that were skipped in order to 'save time' for the viewer. I wish we were given the option to skip over the content as opposed to it being simply missing. That being said, it is important to learn how to form your own questions and do your own troubleshooting.

This course really demystified AWS in relation to Spring Boot for me! I thought the material was excellent for those already familiar with Spring Boot and how it works. I would suggest to anyone considering this course to get some familiarity with Spring Boot prior to taking it. The only thing that kept it from being five stars is a lack of Spring Cloud integration. That would have been an amazing thing to see.
