The five-day national level FDP on AWS was designed to empower participants in understanding and utilizing Cloud Infrastructure, specifically AWS (Amazon Web Services). In the rapidly evolving landscape of modern technology, cloud computing has emerged as a game-changing paradigm, revolutionizing the way businesses and individuals approach IT infrastructure and services. Amazon Web Services (AWS), a subsidiary of Amazon providing on-demand cloud computing platforms and APIs to individuals, companies, and governments, has played a pivotal role in shaping this revolution. The workshop on AWS offered an opportunity to delve into the intricacies of this dynamic platform, equipping participants with the knowledge and skills to harness its potential.
The workshop spanned 5 days and was meticulously designed to cater to participants with varying levels of prior experience with AWS and cloud computing. The sessions were structured to progress from foundational concepts to more advanced topics, ensuring that every attendee could follow along and build upon their existing knowledge. Some of the key highlights of the workshop included:
- Introduction to Cloud Computing and AWS: An overview of cloud computing models, the benefits of cloud adoption, and an introduction to the AWS platform's key features.
- Navigating the AWS Console: Hands-on guidance on navigating the AWS Management Console, creating accounts, and understanding the organization of AWS resources.
- Compute Services: In-depth exploration of Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances, including instance types, security groups, and launching virtual servers.
- Storage and Database Services: Understanding Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service), Amazon RDS (Relational Database Service), and Amazon DynamoDB for scalable storage and database management.
- Networking and Security: Exploring Amazon VPC (Virtual Private Cloud), security best practices, and setting up secure connectivity to AWS resources.
- Serverless Computing: Introduction to AWS Lambda and serverless architecture, enabling participants to build event-driven applications.
- Machine Learning on AWS: Overview of AWS machine learning services, including Amazon SageMaker, and insights into incorporating machine learning into applications.
- Cost Management: Strategies for optimizing costs while using AWS services, including pricing models and monitoring tools.
