The 'AWS Solution Architect Associate & AWS Cloud Practitioner Certifications 2019 - The Next Level Guide' is the only complete and up-to-date training resources for both the AWS Cloud Practitioner and the AWS Solution Architect Associate 2019 certifications. Unlike all other substitutes, this manuscript covers all content addressed by Cloud Practitioner as well as the Solution Architect Associate certifications currently offered by the AWS Academy. Moreover, the author of this manuscript is accredited by the AWS Academy to teach both the certification curriculum (the Cloud Foundation (CF) and the Cloud Architecture (CA)) and holds certifications in both as well. The materials contained in this manuscript begin with a deep dive into the CF content required for Cloud Practitioner certification: AWS Networking, Identity, Compute, Storage, and Database Services. With these covered, we go into the CA content required for Solution Architect Associate certification: AWS application integration, high-availability, serverless applications, followed by the five (5) pillars of AWS cloud architecture: operational excellence, security, cost optimization, reliability, and performance efficiency. Written in a clear and concise style, the manuscript lays out and dives deeply on the foundation of AWS cloud resources and services, taking the reader step by step into the complexity of AWS cloud architectures (both distributed multi-tiered as well as stateless serverless applications).
