This course covers configuring and deploying an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) [A1] with multiple subnets across two Availability Zones beyond the fundamental level. The course also covers best practices and common use scenarios for a variety of basic network architectures built with Amazon VPC. [A2]
ActivitiesThis course includes written material, videos, and knowledge checks.
This course also includes one optional self-paced lab hosted at amazon.qwiklabs.com. You must pay for labs with credits, which cost $1 USD per credit. Labs typically cost up to 15 credits. This cost is not included with free digital training on aws.training. You will need to create a Qwiklabs account to purchase credits and take a lab.
