Course description

Stop deploying everything in AWS's default network and learn how real infrastructure is built. You'll create a custom VPC with public subnets and launch an EC2 web server that's accessible from anywhere on the internet, using the same networking patterns that power production applications at scale.

This hands-on course takes you through AWS networking fundamentals - from regions and availability zones to VPCs, subnets, and internet gateways. You'll deploy an EC2 instance in a public subnet, configure SSH access with key pairs, and connect to your server from your local machine.

Every AWS project needs proper networking before deploying applications. Learn how to build the infrastructure foundation that separates hobby projects from production-ready systems.
