AMA03 – Advanced Developing on AWS
AMA03 - Advanced Developing on AWS
Course description
The Advanced Developing on AWS course uses the real-world scenario of taking a legacy, on-premises
monolithic application and refactoring it into a serverless microservices architecture. This three-day
advanced course covers advanced development topics such as architecting for a cloud-native environment;
deconstructing on-premises, legacy applications and repackaging them into cloud-based, cloud native
architectures; and applying the tenets of the Twelve-Factor Application methodology.
Activities
This course includes presentations, group exercises, and hands-on labs.
Course objectives
In this course, you will:
Analyze a monolithic application architecture to determine logical or programmatic break points where the application can be broken up across different AWS services
Apply Twelve-Factor Application manifesto concepts and steps while migrating from a monolithic architecture
Recommend the appropriate AWS services to develop a microservices based cloud-native application
Use the AWS API, CLI, and SDKs to monitor and manage AWS services
Migrate a monolithic application to a microservices application using the 6 Rs of migration
Explain the SysOps and DevOps interdependencies necessary to deploy a microservices application in AWS
Intended audience
This course is intended for experienced software developers who are already familiar with AWS services.
Prerequisites
We recommend that attendees of this course have:
In-depth knowledge of at least one high-level programming language
Working knowledge of core AWS services and public cloud implementation
Completion of the Developing on AWS classroom training, and then a minimum of 6 months of
application of those concepts in a real world environment
