This AWS Cloud Software Architecture training is designed to help participants design, build, and optimize scalable, secure, and resilient cloud-native architectures on Amazon Web Services. The course covers AWS architectural best practices, Well-Architected Framework, compute, networking, storage, security, high availability, and cost optimization. Participants will gain hands-on architectural insight to design production-grade cloud solutions aligned with business and technical requirements.

• Understand the core principles, architectural frameworks, and cloud design concepts of AWS software architecture.
• Design scalable, resilient, and high-performance application architectures using AWS services.
• Implement compute, storage, networking, and database services for cloud-native application design.
• Apply security, identity management, monitoring, and governance practices in AWS architectures.
• Optimize application architecture for availability, scalability, performance, and cost efficiency.
• Build secure, production-ready, and enterprise-grade software solutions using AWS architecture best practices.
