AWS Cloud Builder Labs

These labs helped me build a practical foundation in core AWS services, shared responsibility and cloud security.

What I practised

Three areas of cloud practice.

01

Core AWS services

Guided labs using EC2, S3, VPC, IAM and RDS, including how the services connect to each other.

  • EC2
  • S3
  • VPC
  • IAM
  • RDS

02

Shared responsibility

Understanding where AWS’s responsibility ends, where the customer’s begins and how that affects access, configuration and data protection.

  • Security model
  • Access control
  • Data protection

03

Infrastructure automation

An introduction to CloudFormation templates for defining and setting up AWS infrastructure.

  • CloudFormation
  • IaC
  • Automation

What I’m learning from the labs.

The labs help me understand how AWS permissions and networking work and which security tasks are the customer’s responsibility.
