Learn to design secure, resilient, high-performing and cost-optimized systems on AWS, and prepare for the AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate (SAA-C03) exam.
This course walks you through the four design domains of the AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate exam, using the AWS Well-Architected Framework as the thread that ties them together. You will work in the AWS console to build and compare real architectures, from identity and network security to scaling, disaster recovery and cost control. Each module ends with exam-style scenario practice so you learn to choose the right AWS service for a stated business requirement.
This course is for solutions architects, cloud engineers, systems administrators and developers who design or support workloads on AWS. It also suits IT professionals with a strong on-premises background who are moving into cloud architecture roles.
Familiarity with general networking, IP addressing and cloud computing concepts
AWS recommends at least 1 year of hands-on experience designing cloud solutions that use AWS services
No formal prerequisite certification is required
Works on Windows, macOS or Linux; labs use the AWS console in a web browser
An AWS account is required for hands-on labs; labs use free-tier services where possible, but some lab activity creates paid AWS usage charges billed to your account, so delete lab resources when you finish
