Introduction to AWS Automation Tools
In this LinkedIn Learning course, I learned about achieving operational excellence on AWS by exploring strategies for managing multiple accounts and automating infrastructure using tools such as Lambda, Systems Manager, CloudFormation, and CloudWatch. I gained insights into automating network infrastructure by studying VPC creation, IP address management, flow logs, and security monitoring with CloudTrail and GuardDuty. Additionally, I learned about automating compute processes by examining EC2 metrics, launch templates, image building, and auto scaling, along with managing storage through S3, EBS snapshot management, and AWS Backup. Finally, I explored workload security by understanding the roles of AWS Config, Macie, Lambda, Inspector, and Security Hub, which broadened my perspective on building scalable, automated, and secure cloud environments.
