Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) Beginners Certification

Learn to Setup, Configure, and Administer EC2 Instances on AWS. Explore Virtualization, Scaling, Elastic IPs, + More

Description:

Welcome to the Amazon EC2 Foundations Certification course, your gateway to mastering the intricacies of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). As an essential component of AWS certification, EC2 proficiency is a must-have skill for aspiring cloud practitioners. This course offers a comprehensive journey through EC2, starting with fundamental concepts and culminating in practical hands-on experience deploying compute resources on AWS.

Amazon EC2 is the backbone of scalable cloud computing, powering some of the world’s most prominent websites and applications for nearly a decade. To grasp how EC2 operates, we delve into the concept of virtualization—a process that creates software-based virtual representations of servers. When deploying an EC2 instance, we essentially create a virtual version of a physical server, complete with CPU, memory (RAM), storage, and network resources.

AWS stands out for its unparalleled customization options, offering the most extensive range of configuration choices for virtual servers. This flexibility allows seamless adaptation of resource needs in real-time, catering to both micro and enterprise-level clients with a highly scalable and advanced virtualization infrastructure.

Furthermore, virtualization enables the deployment of various operating systems on EC2 instances, including Linux and Windows, through pre-configured virtual applications known as Amazon Machine Images (AMIs).

In addition to theoretical insights, this course offers practical hands-on experience with EC2, covering essential features such as:

  • Exploring EC2 Instance characteristics
  • Understanding EC2 Instance Types
  • Creating IAM Users for EC2
  • Deploying EC2 Instances with pre-configured AMIs
  • Assigning Elastic IPs to Deployed Instances
  • EC2 Instance Administration
  • Creating Security Groups for Deployed Instances
  • Remote EC2 Administration using SSH Utilities like Terminal for MAC and PuTTY for Windows
  • Utilizing EC2 Instance Connect for administration tasks
