About this course
This course develops practical capability in AWS SysOps Administration. Its course-specific content covers Operational baselines, Monitoring and response, Compute operations, Network operations, followed by an applied project focused on operate and recover an aws application environment. The lessons include concrete configuration, design, testing or operational decisions appropriate to the subject.
Who this is for
Administrators, developers and practitioners who work with AWS SysOps Administration or plan to take on responsibilities in this area.
Before you start
Working knowledge of cloud computing and practical familiarity with the named platform or subject. Review the course topics before enrolment to confirm the lab starting point.
Operate and recover an AWS application environment
Deliver operate and recover an aws application environment. Use the module outcomes to state requirements, demonstrate a working result, test an expected failure or boundary case, and document assumptions and follow-up work.
Course content
Course-specific syllabus and practical exercises. Lab release, access arrangements and final delivery scope are confirmed before enrolment.
Current scope note: AWS now names the associate operations credential CloudOps Engineer – Associate (SOA-C03), succeeding SysOps Administrator. This course covers practical AWS operations and references the current SOA-C03 guide; verify the exact exam target before enrolment.
