Cloud Computing with AWS
AWS from zero, mental-model-first. Learn what the cloud physically is, then build up the core services in the order real engineers reason about them: identity (IAM), compute (EC2), storage (S3), networking (VPC), managed databases (RDS), and serverless (Lambda). You will practice the decisions, which service to pick, what it costs, and what is misconfigured, without needing a live AWS account, and finish by reading three complete reference architectures.

What you'll learn
- ✓Explain what a region, availability zone, and data center actually are, and why companies rent computers instead of buying them
- ✓Reason about IAM users, roles, and policies well enough to spot dangerous permissions before they ship
- ✓Choose between EC2, S3, RDS, and Lambda for a given workload and justify the choice
- ✓Read and debug security groups, subnets, and load balancer setups as diagrams, not console screenshots
- ✓Estimate the monthly cost of a small application and name the free-tier traps that surprise beginners
- ✓Explain three reference architectures end to end: a static site, a classic web app, and a serverless API
