Course contents are good, but there is a lot of repetition which makes it lengthy, could have been a 10 hour course. Also instead of using public modules, private module creation could have been discussed. Overall good but lot of room for improvement.

Hi Kalyan, can you please give "resource" button to download direct zip file as while i am going to github repo link, it is not allowing to download the zip file in office laptop. Please provide same option as you given in Azure IAC in section 1 for zip file for direct download so no need to open git repo link as it is isolated. please give direct zip download option in AWS.

I found this to be an excellent course. Not necessarily for a Terraform or Linux beginner which is fine since there are always so many courses for beginners. There are never enough intermediate courses so this one fills a vital gap. A good understanding of the AWS services is helpful here and this course helps to solidify academically acquired concepts into actual services. There were occasional error messages that I am so glad he kept in the training. That's what we see in our daily work so it's valuable to see how to handle them. These lessons started at the basic level and ended creating a code pipeline in AWS which is a DevOps task so there was a lot of valuable information. I also liked how he showed us how to research resources and syntax on the Terraform web site. That's something we will do a lot as we learn how to use Terraform. Some reviewers mention that content is out of date which will always be the case since AWS changes regularly. I believe that is actually a positive aspect because it forces students to navigate in the AWS Management Console and work away from the script (another 'real world' skill we all need). Thank your for a great course!!

since this course was created a couple of years ago. So, we need to tweak many things in the code to complete the course which makes it difficult for a beginner to complete the course. but if you have intermediate skills in TF then this is a gold mine for you as you will be able to learn lot of things here in this course.

Very well-organized course and documentation, providing a glimpse of the real-world implementation of Terraform on AWS. Would be really great if the snippets for some of the public registry modules could be updated according to the latest version, for example, the one for EC2.
By AWS Cloud Training on 3/29/2022
Very well structured and professionally done course. Covers the basics well and them moves onto more advanced concepts. Very good examples of actual usage of building systems on AWS. Excellent value for money. Would get five stars if there were practical examples with Containers on AWS.
By Anuradha Gorla on 3/17/2022
It's a Good course, but when compared to Course 'Azure with Terraform', there are lot of things missing and only then it would be a complete course. Please update the course with the same content as your other Terraform Azure course, then It would be a 5 star.
By Andrew Hadji-Michael on 12/30/2021
Initially I gave this only 4 stars. But on review I have bumped it up to 5 stars. Its nearly perfect. The only part I wish Kaylan would improve is more to do with the first part around loops and conditionals in Terraform. But I think it deserves to be given a 5 star rating because the course delivers a lot of value so the rating should reflect that.

There is a saying "A poor teacher complains, an average teacher explains, a good teacher teaches, a great teacher inspires", this suit Kalyan, I could see flawless, crystal clear, in-depth knowledge in his teaching. Thank you for your amazing course. Regards, Aravind

Absolute real-world course for Terraform on AWS Cloud. I liked the course flow starting from simple use-cases to super complex architectural designs. We just re-used your TF templates with slight changes in our organization and everything worked super. Outstanding way of explaining things by breaking down to simple steps with nicely organized GitHub project. Even the Terraform configurations were broken down to multiple files for easy troubleshooting. More than Terraform I learned how to think like an architect and break down things build complex infrastructure to steps and how to stitch them back as a whole. Keep continuing with providing such outstanding courses.
