Amazon ECS Training is a hands-on, practical program designed to equip learners with the skills required to deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications using Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS). This training focuses on container orchestration concepts, ECS architecture, task definitions, services, cluster management, networking, load balancing, and integration with AWS services. Participants will gain real-world experience in running Docker containers in a highly scalable and managed AWS environment.

Participants will gain strong practical expertise in Amazon ECS, enabling them to manage containerized workloads, deploy scalable applications, and implement container orchestration in AWS environments.

• DevOps Engineers and Cloud Engineers
• Software Developers working with containerized applications
• Site Reliability Engineers (SREs)
• System Administrators managing cloud infrastructure
• IT Professionals transitioning into container orchestration

• Basic understanding of AWS cloud services (EC2, IAM, VPC fundamentals)
• Familiarity with Docker and container concepts
• Basic knowledge of networking and application deployment
• Understanding of Linux command-line basics is helpful

• Amazon ECS architecture and container orchestration concepts
• Docker container deployment on AWS ECS
• Task definitions and service configuration
