Cloud Concepts Domain

“

- [Instructor] In the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam, there are four domains. They are Cloud Concepts, Security and Compliance, Cloud Technology and Services, and Billing, Pricing, and Support. The four introductory AWS courses I teach on LinkedIn Learning follow each of these four domains. This first course mainly covers the Cloud Concepts domain of the certification exam, which makes up 24% of the exam. For this portion of the exam, AWS wants you to define the value proposition of the AWS Cloud, identify design principles of the AWS Cloud, understand benefits and strategies for migrating existing IT infrastructure onto the AWS Cloud, and understand concepts of cloud economics. In this course, you will contemplate questions like: What exactly is cloud computing? What makes it different from legacy IT infrastructure? How is the way you pay for your resources different from buying and setting up your own hardware for your own on-premises data centers? You will also learn about concepts like the Well-Architected Framework for building IT infrastructure, the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework for migrating your existing infrastructure onto the AWS Cloud, and advantages of cloud computing over legacy IT infrastructure. Let's get started with learning about what the cloud is, why cloud computing is taking the world by storm, and what Amazon Web Services, the largest cloud computing platform in the world, is used for.
