LinkedIn Learning Certificate of Completion

Amazon Web Services (AWS)—and cloud computing in general—can be difficult for people without technical backgrounds to decipher. This introductory course is a bridge between non-engineers and the cloud. It is the first in a four-part series designed to help professionals in non-technical roles, and maps to the first domain of the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner CLF-C02 exam. Instructor Hiroko Nishimura—founder of Intro to AWS for Newbies—provides a brief history of cloud computing, an overview of cloud deployment models, and a summary of cloud design principles. She then shows how to create an account and start using the AWS Free Tier to gain hands-on experience with AWS products and services. Plus, get exam tips and learn about resources for professionals studying for the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam.
