Advanced Developing On AWS

AWS Training

Course ID: AWS-AD

Duration: 3 Days

Training Fee: HK$12,600

Overview

The Advanced Developing on AWS course uses the real-world scenario of taking a legacy, on-premises monolithic application and refactoring it into a serverless microservices architecture. This three-day advanced course covers advanced development topics such as architecting for a cloud-native environment; deconstructing on-premises, legacy applications and repackaging them into cloud-based, cloud native architectures; and applying the tenets of the Twelve-Factor Application methodology.

Course Objectives

This course allows you to:

  • Analyze a monolithic application architecture to determine logical or programmatic break points where the application can be broken up across different AWS services
  • Apply Twelve-Factor Application manifesto concepts and steps while migrating from a monolithic architecture
  • Recommend the appropriate AWS services to develop a microservices based cloud-native application
  • Use the AWS API, CLI, and SDKs to monitor and manage AWS services
  • Migrate a monolithic application to a microservices application using the 6 Rs of migration
  • Explain the SysOps and DevOps interdependencies necessary to deploy a microservices application in AWS

Prerequisites

We recommend that attendees of this course have:

  • In-depth knowledge of at least one high-level programming language
