Course Overview
The Advanced Developing on AWS course uses the real-world scenario of taking a legacy, on-premises monolithic application and refactoring it into a serverless microservices architecture. This three-day advanced course covers advanced development topics such as architecting for a cloud-native environment, deconstructing on-premises legacy applications and repackaging them into cloud-based cloud-native architectures, and applying the tenets of the Twelve-Factor Application methodology.
What you’ll learn
- Analyze a monolithic application architecture to determine logical or programmatic break points where the application can be broken up across different AWS services
- Apply Twelve-Factor Application manifesto concepts and steps while migrating from a monolithic architecture
- Recommend the appropriate AWS services to develop a microservices-based cloud-native application
- Use the AWS API, CLI, and SDKs to monitor and manage AWS services
- Migrate a monolithic application to a microservices application using the 6 Rs of migration
- Explain the SysOps and DevOps interdependencies necessary to deploy a microservices application in AWS
Requirements
- In-depth knowledge of at least one high-level programming language
- Working knowledge of core AWS services and public cloud implementation
- Completion of the Developing on AWS classroom training, and then a minimum of 6 months of application of those concepts in a real world environment
Target audiences
- Experienced software developers who are already familiar with AWS services
