Description

Learn AWS in 2026 by building a complete, real-world serverless application from scratch.
This course is designed for beginners who understand basic cloud concepts, or have completed an entry-level AWS certification, but still need practical experience. Instead of studying isolated services, you will see how multiple AWS services work together inside one complete project.
Throughout the course, you will build and deploy a serverless image-storage application usingAWS Lambda, Amazon S3, API Gateway, Amazon Cognito, DynamoDB, Amazon Rekognition, SNS, and CloudFormation.
You will learn how to
Design a practical serverless architecture
Provision AWS resources using CloudFormation
Store and manage files with Amazon S3
Build backend logic with AWS Lambda
Create APIs using Amazon API Gateway
Add authentication and authorization with Amazon Cognito
Store application data in DynamoDB
Analyze images using Amazon Rekognition
Send notifications with Amazon SNS
Connect AWS services using permissions and event-driven workflows
Deploy, test, troubleshoot, and improve a complete cloud application
The course focuses on practical implementation rather than memorizing theory. You will write infrastructure templates, configure permissions, connect services, debug problems, and understand why each architectural decision is made.
By the end of the course, you will have a complete AWS project that you can discuss in interviews, include in your portfolio, and use as a foundation for more advanced cloud projects.
