Welcome to my AWS Cloud Practitioner learning repository!
I’m AARON KGAPHOLA, an aspiring AWS Cloud Practitioner passionate about cloud computing and continuous learning.
I’m exploring how AWS services work together to build secure, scalable, and cost-effective solutions in the cloud.
This space documents my progress, notes, and hands-on labs as I build my foundational skills in Amazon Web Services (AWS).
- Compute is the processing power for applications.
- Examples I worked with: EC2 (virtual servers), Lambda (serverless functions)
- It is important because it determines app performance and scalability
- Networking connects AWS resources securely.
- Examples I used: VPC, Route 53
- It is important because it controls traffic flow and resource communication
- Storage is where I keep data, files, and backups.
- Examples I used: S3, EBS
- Storage is important because it provides durable, scalable storage for applications
- Databases store structured application data.
- Examples I worked with: RDS, DynamoDB
- They are important because they ensure fast, reliable data access for apps
- I used IAM to control access.
- I learned about roles, policies, MFA, and basic encryption
- Security is important because it protects resources and data
- EC2
- S3
- RDS
- Lambda
- VPC
- IAM
- Linux
- Python
- Networking
- Databases
- I will include screenshots and step explanations
- I will include architecture diagrams, AWS services explanations, and screenshots
- TBD
- I included intents, bot logic, and usage screenshots
I will complet a minimum of two labs per section (Compute, Storage, Networking, Databases) and documented each with clear explanations, screenshots, and reasoning for every step.
