AWS Practical Workshop

Learn the foundation AWS services like EC2, VPC, ELB, Auto Scaling Groups, to more advanced managed services by AWS like RDS, Elasticache, AWS ES and more.

This training session covers AWS basics.

• AWS UI - creating instances, load balancers, managing security groups and more.
• AWS CLI - using the CLI you have access to all AWS services and metadata you’ll ever need, you can create, edit, delete and manage all AWS resources.

Common challenges surrounding high availability, scaling and security.

By the end of this workshop, the participants will understand and know how to use AWS core services, as well as use services that help manage applications easily and simplify deployments.

You’ll discover ideas that’ll transform your tech work, your applications, and your business.

In this workshop we will take a simple web application and we will create a scalable, highly available and secure environment for it.

Beyond diving into the foundation to build and scale your app on AWS, here’s what makes DevOps Pro workshop unique:

1. Highly valuable content
2. Professional development for administrators, engineers and developers.
3. Extensive learning enabling growth and adoption of best practices
4. Cost effective, encouraged, effective method for training employees — Provides the potential to positively impact employee learning and development!
5. Develop the Knowledge and Skills of Your Employees — Enhance and ensure an employee’s exact skills and knowledge that is needed to succeed in their jobs.
6. An interactive problem solving exercise with game elements — participants are offered to take part in an interactive case study process.

1. Every aspect of our content is hand-picked and carefully crafted, and ranges from inspiring lessons from seasoned entrepreneurs, to informative how-to sessions, and interactive exercises.
2. AWS is a vast terrain that took years to build and consequently takes time to learn.
   But we will cover a lot of ground and you will have a mental framework within which to incorporate new AWS services and techniques you discover. More importantly, you will have the foundation to build and scale your app on AWS.
   Building your mental model so you know how to think about your scalable web app on AWS. Sharing some fundamental ideas that aren’t very hard to understand, but they’ll make your ramp-up process easier.
3. You will learn:
   • How to manage deployments and rollbacks of applications
   • The very basics of AWS like “How to Launch an EC2 Instance”
   • How to create a web application using Docker on AWS using Elasticbeanstalk as a wrapper for EC2, ELB, EBS, RDS, Autoscaling Groups, Security Groups and more
   • How to balance the need to build an app quickly and inexpensively today, but that’s scalable for tomorrow

• System administrators
• Software developers
• Devops engineers
• Operations engineers
• IT engineers

With AWS as the leading public cloud provider today you can run all your applications easily and securely.

By the end of the workshop you will learn the foundation AWS services like EC2, VPC, ELB, Auto Scaling Groups, to more advanced managed services by AWS like RDS, Elasticache, AWS ES and more.

In this workshop we will take a simple web application and we will create a scalable, highly available and secure environment for it.

We will show how to manage deployments, rollbacks and how to manage backups of the application data.

• Working with the AWS UI – creating instances, load balancers, managing security groups and more.
•  Working with the AWS CLI – using the CLI you have access to all AWS services and metadata you’ll ever need, you can create, edit, delete and manage all AWS resources.
•  Common challenges surrounding high availability, scaling and security.

By the end of the day you will understand and know how to use AWS core services, we will use services that help us manage our applications easily and simplifies deployments.

This seminar is intended for beginners / intermediate delegates who aim to require knowledge and experience with AWS services.

•   IT engineers
•   System administrators
•   Devops engineers
•   Software developers

• Introduction to AWS services:

Regions + AZ
      Show a map of AWS regions around the world
      Explain that every region is divided to ~4 AZs

     S3
      Explain the idea of object store
      Explain the SLA and how it is backed up around regions

     VPC
      Explain the Concept, why use a VPC
      Explain the concept of VPC peering.
      Show a bubble of the structure and basic networking (subnets per AZ, routing, ACLs …)

     Route53
      Simple DNS explanation.

     ELB
      Load balancing as a service by AWS

     Autoscaling Groups
      Explain the concept of elasticity in the cloud

     Security Groups
      Explain the concept of stateless “gate” in front of ec2

     EC2 + EBS
      The heart of AWS, explain the concept of AWS virtualization
      (hypervisor, shared tenancy etc…)

     RDS
      Just relational DB service by AWS

     CloudWatch
      Monitoring, logging and events triggers of ALL services

     IAM
      Explain the concept of groups, users, roles and policies
      How a role and policy are being consumed and why is it important to differentiate services and permissions.

     Elasticbeanstalk 
      AWS service that creates a full application architecture using other AWS services.

•   Microservices – Microservices today has to be highly available, scalable, must have an easy deploy mechanism with little configuration and fast deployment.
•   Create a web application using Docker on AWS using Elasticbeanstalk as a wrapper for EC2, ELB, EBS, RDS, Autoscaling Groups, Security Groups and more.
