Learn how to store data durably and securely on AWS and how to design isolated, secure cloud networks. Through the industry-proven lens of the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate (SAA-C03) exam, you'll configure Amazon S3, including storage classes, lifecycle policies, versioning, encryption, and access control, and work with S3 Glacier for archival, Amazon EBS block storage, and Amazon EFS and FSx file storage. You'll then build Virtual Private Clouds with subnets, route tables, internet gateways, NAT, security groups, network ACLs, VPC endpoints, and peering, and explore VPN options for hybrid connectivity.
