Learn about the five core services of Amazon Web Services (AWS): compute, storage, database, networking and content security, and analytics. This course examines the most common and important products and services in those five areas. Starting with compute services a key product is Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2), which is a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale cloud computing easier for developers. An important storage service is Simple Storage Service (S3), which is an object storage service that offers industry-leading scalability, data availability, security, and performance. Relational Database Service (RDS) is a web service that makes it easier to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the AWS Cloud. Along with networking and content security, this course will also cover analytic services as the final core service. This course is one of a collection of courses that prepares learners for the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner 2019 certification.

Access management is a vital pillar of Amazon Web Services (AWS) security. Examine the concept of access management, with a focus on Identity and Access Management (IAM). In this course, explore bastion hosts, Appstream 2.0, CLI (command-line interface) Access, Single-Sign-on (SSO), and Cognito. Learn about password policies that apply to IAM users. A bastion host is a system whose goal is to offer secure access to a private network from an external network like the Internet, designed and configured to withstand attacks. Appstream 2.0 is a streaming service that provides users with instant access to their desktop applications from anywhere. CLI Access is a text-based user interface used to view and manage computer files. SSO is a cloud-based single sign-on service that makes it easy to centrally manage SSO access to all of your AWS accounts and cloud applications. Amazon Cognito provides authentication, authorization, and user management for web and mobile apps.
