Foreword
As technology continues to advance at an unprecedented pace, businesses across the globe are constantly seeking new ways to leverage the latest tools and infrastructure to improve their operations. AWS has empowered organizations to achieve more agility, scalability, and cost-efficiency, enabling them to focus on their core business rather than managing infrastructure. The role of a solutions architect requires a special skill set that encompasses a breadth and depth of technological know-how, as well as the potential to link those skills back to business acumen and provide a return on investment. As AWS adoption increases, there is a growing need for professionals who can design and implement solutions on the AWS platform. Based on my 20+ years of teaching experience, “” is a comprehensive guide to becoming an AWS solutions architect. This book is intended to provide a complete overview of AWS services and their applications.
Cloud computing has grown to be an essential part of contemporary company operations as the globe continues to move toward digital transformation. This book will aid readers in navigating the AWS platform’s intricacies and in discovering the platform’s enormous potential for development and innovation. The AWS infrastructure, security, storage, computation, networking, databases, and application services are just a few of the many areas it covers. This book has done a commendable job of addressing these topics in sixteen chapters, which offer instructions on how to create and deploy apps using AWS as well as how to enhance the efficiency and performance of AWS infrastructure.
My appreciation extends to the addition of new architectural chapters on the most recent technological environments, such as AWS IoT, ML, blockchain, and big data. The book discusses the DevOps engineer career path so concisely and in such sufficient depth that I use the content of this book in my classroom instruction, followed by exhaustive resources on examination preparation. The book is filled with real-world examples and best practices, such as cloud migration patterns (The 7 Rs), which will assist readers in becoming AWS experts.
Recent reunions with a number of my former students have made me aware of their transformation into solutions architects. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned professional, this book will provide you with valuable information about AWS and its services. Having witnessed Saurabh’s evolution from a student into the author of this book, I am confident that it will serve as a valuable resource for IT professionals, developers, and business leaders seeking to harness the power of cloud computing with AWS. I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning about AWS and its services, as well as those preparing for the AWS Solutions Architect certification exam. Congratulations to the author for providing the AWS community with such a valuable resource!
