Course overview

The AWS Solutions Architect Certification is a comprehensive training programme designed for those looking to master cloud architecture on Amazon Web Services (AWS). This course prepares you to design, deploy, and optimise cloud solutions with a strong focus on scalability, security, and cost-effectiveness.  

Become a certified AWS Solutions Architect and propel your career forward

The AWS Solutions Architect Certification teaches you how to design and manage scalable, secure, and cost-effective applications in AWS. Through the course, you will gain an in-depth knowledge of AWS services, architecture best practice, and strategies for optimising cloud solutions.  

Learning objectives

By the end of this course, you should be able to: 

  • Formulate solution plans and provide guidance on AWS architecture 
  • Design and deploy scalable, highly available, and fault-tolerant AWS systems  
  • Identify the lift and shift of existing applications to AWS 
  • Decipher the ingress and egress of data to and from AWS 
  • Select the appropriate AWS service based on data, compute, database, or security requirements 
  • Estimate AWS costs and identify cost control mechanisms 

What you'll learn

On the AWS Solutions Architect Certification, you will learn how to design and deploy reliable, scalable, and secure applications on AWS. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to design cloud solutions that meet both technical and business requirements, preparing you for success as a Solutions Architect. 

The fundamentals of AWS services

The course provides an in-depth look at the core AWS services, helping you understand and implement Amazon’s infrastructure-as-a-service offerings. You will explore critical services like EC2 (elastic compute cloud) for scalable virtual servers, S3 (simple storage service) for secure and reliable storage, and RDS (relational database service) for managed database solutions. Mastering these core services will allow you to design, deploy and manage AWS-powered applications efficiently.  

Strategies for secure solutions

Security is critical in any AWS environment, so this course offers guidance for protecting data and maintaining compliance. You will learn about identity and access management (IAM) to control access, encryption protocols to secure data, and multi-factor authentication (MFA) for additional security. These security strategies will prepare you to design AWS solutions that adheres to the highest standards of data protection and resilience.  

Effective cloud design for scalability

The AWS Solutions Architect Certification also focuses on architectural design principles that support growth and adaptability. Learn how to use elasticity and scalability features within AWS, allowing applications to handle variable demand. These design principles empower you to create architectures that are both robust and cost-efficient, capable of evolving with business needs.
