Course Details
1. Implement metrics, alarms, and filters by using AWS monitoring and logging services
- Identify, collect, analyze, and export logs (for example, Amazon CloudWatch Logs, CloudWatch Logs Insights, AWS CloudTrail logs).
- Collect metrics and logs by using the CloudWatch agent.
- Create CloudWatch alarms.
- Create metric filters.
- Create CloudWatch dashboards.
- Configure notifications (for example, Amazon Simple Notification Service [Amazon SNS], Service Quotas, CloudWatch alarms, AWS Health events)
2. Remediate issues based on monitoring and availability metrics
- Troubleshoot or take corrective actions based on notifications and alarms.
- Configure Amazon Event Bridge rules to invoke actions.
- Use AWS Systems Manager Automation runbooks to take action based on AWS Config rules.
3. Implement scalability and elasticity
- Create and maintain AWS Auto Scaling plans.
- Implement caching.
- Implement Amazon RDS replicas and Amazon Aurora Replicas.
- Implement loosely coupled architectures.
- Differentiate between horizontal scaling and vertical scaling
4. Implement high availability and resilient environments
- Configure Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) and Amazon Route 53 health checks.
- Differentiate between the use of a single Availability Zone and Multi-AZ deployments (for example, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling groups, ELB, Amazon FSx, Amazon RDS).
- Implement fault-tolerant workloads (for example, Amazon Elastic File System [Amazon EFS], Elastic IP addresses).
- Implement Route 53 routing policies (for example, failover, weighted, latency based)
5. Implement backup and restore strategies
- Automate snapshots and backups based on use cases (for example, RDS snapshots, AWS Backup, RTO and RPO, Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager, retention policy).
- Restore databases (for example, point-in-time restore, promote read replica).
- Implement versioning and lifecycle rules.
- Configure Amazon S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR).
- Perform disaster recovery procedures.
6. Provision and maintain cloud resources
- Create and manage AMIs (for example, EC2 Image Builder).
- Create, manage, and troubleshoot AWS CloudFormation.
- Provision resources across multiple AWS Regions and accounts (for example, AWS Resource Access Manager [AWS RAM], CloudFormation StackSets, IAM cross-account roles).
- Select deployment scenarios and services (for example, blue/green, rolling, canary).
- Identify and remediate deployment issues (for example, service quotas, subnet sizing, CloudFormation errors, permissions).
7. Automate manual or repeatable processes
- Use AWS services (for example, Systems Manager, CloudFormation) to automate deployment processes.
- Implement automated patch management.
- Schedule automated tasks by using AWS services (for example, EventBridge, AWS Config)
8. Implement and manage security and compliance policies
- Implement IAM features (for example, password policies, multi-factor authentication [MFA], roles, SAML, federated identity, resource policies, policy conditions).
- Troubleshoot and audit access issues by using AWS services (for example, CloudTrail, IAM Access Analyzer, IAM policy simulator).
- Validate service control policies (SCPs) and permissions boundaries.
- Review AWS Trusted Advisor security checks.
- Validate AWS Region and service selections based on compliance requirements.
- Implement secure multi-account strategies (for example, AWS Control Tower, AWS Organizations).
9. Implement data and infrastructure protection strategies
- Enforce a data classification scheme.
- Create, manage, and protect encryption keys.
- Implement encryption at rest (for example, AWS Key Management Service [AWS KMS]).
- Implement encryption in transit (for example, AWS Certificate Manager [ACM], VPN).
- Securely store secrets by using AWS services (for example, AWS Secrets Manager, Systems Manager Parameter Store).
- Review reports or findings (for example, AWS Security Hub, Amazon Guard Duty, AWS Config, Amazon Inspector)
10. Implement networking features and connectivity
- Configure a VPC (for example, subnets, route tables, network ACLs, security groups, NAT gateway, internet gateway).
- Configure private connectivity (for example, Systems Manager Session Manager, VPC endpoints, VPC peering, VPN).
- Configure AWS network protection services (for example, AWS WAF, AWS Shield).
11. Configure domains, DNS services, and content delivery
- Configure Route 53 hosted zones and records.
- Implement Route 53 routing policies (for example, geolocation, geoproximity).
- Configure DNS (for example, Route 53 Resolver).
- Configure Amazon CloudFront and S3 origin access control (OAC).
- Configure S3 static website hosting.
12. Troubleshoot network connectivity issues
- Interpret VPC configurations (for example, subnets, route tables, network ACLs, security groups).
- Collect and interpret logs (for example, VPC Flow Logs, ELB access logs, AWS WAF web ACL logs, CloudFront logs).
- Identify and remediate CloudFront caching issues.
- Troubleshoot hybrid and private connectivity issues.
13. Implement cost optimization strategies
- Implement cost allocation tags.
- Identify and remediate underutilized or unused resources by using AWS services and tools (for example, Trusted Advisor, AWS Compute Optimizer, AWS Cost Explorer).
- Configure AWS Budgets and billing alarms.
- Assess resource usage patterns to qualify workloads for EC2 Spot Instances.
- Identify opportunities to use managed services (for example, Amazon RDS, AWS Fargate, Amazon EFS).
14. Implement performance optimization strategies
- Recommend compute resources based on performance metrics.
- Monitor Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) metrics and modify configuration to increase performance efficiency.
- Implement S3 performance features (for example, S3 Transfer Acceleration, multipart uploads).
- Monitor RDS metrics and modify the configuration to increase performance efficiency (for example, Performance Insights, RDS Proxy).
- Enable enhanced EC2 capabilities (for example, Elastic Network Adapter, instance store, placement groups).
