Description
Then, welcome to learn AWS CloudFormation from a senior AWS architect step by step with hands-on examples and detailed explanations!

This course will take you from beginner to intermediate level on AWS CloudFormation. You will learn the basics of CloudFormation, and achieve an intermediate level to use it for your daily needs. However, it will also be a basis for my upcoming AWS CloudFormation Step by Step: Intermediate to Advanced course, which I expect to launch in mid-June 2021!

What will you achieve in this course?

In the first section, you will understand what AWS CloudFormation is and learn to create stacks from existing templates and delete them.

In Section 3, you will learn to increase the re-usability of your templates with parameters. You will make lots of examples with different parameter types, constraints, etc.

In the fourth section, you will learn to define the Metadata and Mappings sections in your templates to enhance them more.

In Section 5, you will learn to create resources and/or configure their attributes conditionally using the Conditions section. You will also learn how to define outputs for your stacks.

In Section 6, we will cover an intermediate-level AWS CloudFormation feature, and you will learn how to create change sets to update your stacks safely.

Until Section 7, you will use the AWS CloudFormation Console. But in Section 7, you will also learn how to manage your stacks and change sets using the cloudformation commands of AWS CLI.

As a result,

✓ You will be able to use AWS CloudFormation for your daily needs on AWS.

✓ You will be able to write your own templates using YAML and define your AWS resources in them.

✓ We will use the AWS Ireland region (eu-west-1) during the course, but you will also learn how to create re-usable, region-independent templates as you progress!

✓ You will gain a solid basis on AWS CloudFormation and be ready for my upcoming AWS CloudFormation Step by Step: Intermediate to Advanced course to learn more advanced-level features. I expect it to be launched in mid-June 2021.

Why learn from me?

✓ AWS verified my knowledge and experience at the top level. I am a senior AWS consultant holding AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional and AWS Certified DevOps Engineer – Professional certifications as well as all 3 Associate-level AWS certificates.

✓ I have been using AWS for more than eight years. I have also been using CloudFormation since the early days.

✓ I learned by doing and teach both theory and practice according to the AWS best practices. I explain the features with hands-on examples and also why to use them with their advantages and disadvantages. So you will benefit from my experience as well as my knowledge.

Is this course for you?

But you should have an intermediate-level of AWS knowledge that will be enough to use core AWS services in our examples. This course focuses only on AWS CloudFormation.

This course is not for intermediate-level AWS CloudFormation users looking for more advanced-level features. I plan to launch my AWS CloudFormation Step by Step: Intermediate to Advanced course in mid-June 2021 to teach those topics, which will take this course as a basis!
