Automating AWS with Python

Hello Cloud Gurus,

In this course, you’ll learn techniques and strategies for automating AWS with Python:

• Command line scripts
• Lambda functions
• Authentication and permissions
• Creating and managing cloud resources
• Reporting and metrics
• Integrating with third party services
• Image processing

We’ll do this through three real-world example projects:

1. Publish a local website to the internet with a single command
2. Notify your Slack team when the size of your EC2 instance fleet autoscales up and down
3. Detect objects and people in a video, and save the results in a database.

This course is designed for beginner to intermediate students who already know some basic Python and what want to get better at Python and improve their understanding of AWS. It’s also for people who are using AWS professionally, but not yet using automation extensively. This course will help you understand how to automate AWS, use the boto3 library to manage AWS resources, coordinate processes and workflows, package and deploy code.
