Cloud computing enables a user to focus on their projects and
customers, without worrying about infrastructure concerns. It not only
saves time, money, and effort but also allows users to concentrate on
the differentiating aspects of their business.

Netflix, Expedia, Spotify, and Ubisoft are some of the top Cloud Computing
companies that utilize AWS. In fact, AWS holds about 41.5 percent
of all installed application workloads. Its market share, in 2017, was Virtual Software Storage/
about 47 percent with a whopping Q4 revenue of $3.66 billion. Servers Desktop Platform Applications Data

AWS offers every benefit that one expects from cloud. It is considerably
superior to other cloud service providers in the market in many aspects
such as data availability and high transfer stability.

Cognixia’s Cloud Computing with AWS course begins by discussing the

basics of AWS and Cloud Computing, then moves on to discussing
intermediary level concepts such as service Models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS)
Router Switch
and Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and ends with diving deep into
the particular elements of the AWS platform in detail.

As part of the course participants get a chance to explore VPC, Route53, End User

IAM, EC2, S3, Cloud Front, Autoscaling, Load Balancing, RDS, RedShift,
CloudWatch, CloudFormation, Elastic Beanstalk, CloudTrail, Trusted
Advisor, SQS, SWF, Lambda, SNS, DynamoDB, Glacier, EFS, Elastic
Transcoder, Kinesis, Direct Connect, Snowmobile and API Gateway.

The course encompasses hands-on exercises and real-time use cases to

ensure that participants develop a thorough practical understanding of
the concepts.

DETAILED CURRICULUM : CASE STUDIES
Case Study #1: “ ”

An organization decides to migrate from on-premise solutions to AWS. This would reduce its turnaround time to deliver products to its customers

customer implementations in a span of weeks instead of months. Also, they are now able to encourage and focus on being innovative and relevant.

Case Study #2: “Digital arketing ”

A large enterprise needed a cloud hosting provider with global infrastructure to support their countless web properties scattered all over the world.
The enterprise felt that by making this move, they would not only enhance business agility and operational efficiency but also gain a competitive
advantage in the market.

By making the move, they were able to launch digital marketing campaign and set up the entire website infrastructure for the same in a span of

Case Study #3: “Big Data Analysis”

An organization provides programmatic advertising solutions to customers across the globe. It processes Big Data (no hyphen in between) queries
from thousands of sources in just a few seconds. It scales up using AWS to keep up with growing demand.

They need about three months to procure the hardware, and set up everything in the data center. They use AWS to build a sophisticated Big Data
platform on the cloud, effectively eliminating the need for back-end management. Post scaling up, they support over 400 instances, with fewer
employees.
