Description

******* Course Overview *******

Welcome to this Amazing course on AWS CloudFormation Simplified. We will learn by practically implementing all the CloudFormation concepts with multiple examples. 

AWS CloudFormation is a core Service in AWS which allows us to automate the Infrastructure and Application Deployments. We can achieve Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery and Infrastructure as Code when using AWS CloudFormation in combination with AWS Developer Tools like AWS CodeCommit, AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodeDeploy and AWS CodePipeline.

There are two parts to this course.

In the first part of the course you will learn all the AWS CloudFormation concepts by practically implementing them. Below are the sections for part one.

Part-1: AWS CloudFormation

01. Introduction to CloudFormation

02. YAML Essentials

03. Stack Features

04. Resources

05. Parameters

06. Mappings

07. Conditions

08. Outputs

09. Metadata

10. EC2 UserData

11. Metadata cfn-init & Helper Scripts (cfn-init, cfn-signal and cfn-hup)

12. Metadata cfn-init - Config Sets

13. Nested Stacks

In the second part of the course, you will implement the below listed three concepts using AWS CloudFormation & AWS Management Console.  You will write cloud formation templates for AWS Developer tools (AWS CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy & CodePipeline) to implement the CI, CD and IAC.

01. Continuous Integration (CI)

02. Continuous Delivery (CD)

03. Infrastructure as Code (IAC)

Part-2: AWS Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery and Infrastructure as Code using AWS CloudFormation & AWS Management Console

14. Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery using CloudFormation

15. Infrastructure as Code using CloudFormation

During the learning process, you will write 45+ cloud formation templates written in YAML.

This course also provides 45+ pre-built templates which you can use them during the learning process.  In addition this course comes with 190 slides in a PDF document.

Each of my courses come with

  • Amazing Hands-on Step By Step Learning Experiences

  • Real Implementation Experience

  • Friendly Support in the Q&A section

  • 30 Day "No Questions Asked" Money Back Guarantee!

I really like the introduction part. Attended many courses. But this course gives the overview at the very beginning stage itself.

He has provided the crux of Cloud Formation for what I was looking for, Thank you for providing the course

Very detailed class. I didn't imagine learning Cloud Formation would take this many hours but there is a reason for it. Kalyan goes into great detail about each option, with examples and demos. Great class for anyone wanting to go from 0 to hero with CF.

Excellent stuff. I liked the way this course have explained the concepts by writing the code. Which is missing from many popular courses on this topic.

Great course and Instructor. The course was justifiably long, but understandably so, as the instructor was trying to explain the concepts theoretically and practically for a good understanding. Patience is required to complete this course. I will definitely be revisiting for more practice.

One of the best training courses. Clear and concise. Easy to follow and understand. Highly recommended.

The course is good. Some people may be put off by the infrastructures accent but I had no issue with it. I would have given a higher grade but the second to last section which is over 6 hours just was not done correctly in my opinion. I believe a better approach would have been to break this content up into separate sections and had one dedicated chapter for execution of the concepts. With that said I still felt the course was very good.

very fast and not clear but my thought to learn YAML I am new to AWS services i dont know i am not able to follow. i am just solution architecht

One of the best Udemy courses i have come across. Its very well detailed and CloudFormation is a difficult topic but the instructor has made it easy to understand.

Very Good Course Got to learn about Cloud Formation in detail. Pre-requisite would be to have basic understanding of all services being used in course such as EC2, VPC etc. If you know them, learning cloud formation will be very easy. Many concepts are told again and again in course, you will remember them in end :)

Course needs updates as few updates are added to CFN, such as import function, registry and extensions. A separate troubleshooting errors section must be added.

Great course & well structured GitHub repository. Before start this course I have zero knowledge but after completing few sections, I felt more confident about CloudFormation. Highly recommend for beginners & intermediate.
