Terraform For Aws: From Zero To Hero

A hands-on guide to automating AWS infrastructure using Terraform

What you'll learn

How to use Terraform to automate the provisioning of AWS resources

How to build and manage infrastructure as code on AWS using Terraform

How to create and manage VPCs, subnets, security groups, and other network resources

How to deploy and manage EC2 instances and auto-scaling groups

How to create and manage RDS databases and Elasticache clusters

How to use Terraform to manage and deploy serverless applications on AWS

How to use Terraform to manage and deploy Kubernetes clusters on AWS

Requirements

Basic understanding of cloud computing concepts

Basic understanding of AWS services and architecture

Familiarity with command line interface (CLI) and basic Linux commands

AWS account with access to create and manage resources

It would be beneficial if students have some hands-on experience with AWS, but it is not mandatory as the course will cover the basics of AWS services and their interactions with Terraform.

Description

Terraform for AWS: From Zero to Hero" is a hands-on course designed to help you learn how to use Terraform to automate the provisioning of AWS resources. This course is perfect for beginners and intermediate users who want to learn how to build and manage infrastructure as code on AWS.The course starts with an introduction to Terraform and its basic concepts, including state management and modules. We will then move on to creating and managing VPCs, subnets, security groups, and other network resources. You will learn how to deploy and manage EC2 instances and auto-scaling groups, and how to create and manage RDS databases and Elasticache clusters.You will also learn how to use Terraform to manage and deploy serverless applications on AWS, as well as how to use Terraform to manage and deploy Kubernetes clusters on AWS. We will also cover how to use Terraform to manage and deploy containerized applications on AWS, and how to use Terraform to manage and deploy Lambda functions and other serverless resources on AWS.Throughout the course, you will work on hands-on exercises and real-world scenarios to solidify your understanding of the concepts covered. By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge and skills to use Terraform to automate the provisioning of AWS resources and build and manage infrastructure as code on AWS.So, if you want to learn how to use Terraform to automate the provisioning of AWS resources, and build and manage infrastructure as code on AWS, then this course is for you.
