- Week 1: Automation and Authentication
- This week, you explore tools and practices that can help you automate tasks that you do in AWS. First, you learn about AWS CloudFormation so you can automate the creation of your infrastructure. Then, you learn about the AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM). AWS SAM is an extension of CloudFormation you can use to automate both the infrastructure and packaging of your application. You also explore the use of Amazon Cognito for user sign-up and sign-in in an API-based application.
- Week 2: Serverless Event Driven Architectures
- You start this week with an introduction to event-driven architectures (EDAs). You learn about AWS services that you can use for messaging, such as Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS), Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS), and Amazon EventBridge. Finally, you explore how to use AWS Step Functions to help you build applications that implement a workflow.
