Cant tell you how much your videos have helped me in understanding AWS better. You have a phenomenal talent in breaking down complex topics and making them understandable to the average joe like me. Thank you! 🙏

At 8:11 "There are like 250 AWS services and no one knows them all, I don't know them all. I know about 50 or so but they're the important 50" This is absolute gold and is also reassuring as someone who is learning the AWS ecosystem. Cheers and thank you for the great content

Amazing roadmap! Super well structured! Thank you! I'm currently working on a computer vision roadmap for my own channel, and I'll be incorporating many things from the way you've structured this roadmap. 🙌

Thanks for creating this man ❤

Bro The perfect video I was looking for. Just how you've mapped it out for someone who is right at the start has given me a lot of confidence. Smashed it!!

What a resourceful topic. Great roadmap to learn. This is pure gold ❤

I'm just getting started down this road and I truly appreciate your efforts, thanks!

Thank you so much for the content brother !! Categorized everything in such a simple manner and the mindmap was the cherry on top

You are truly the man when it comes to explaining how to use AWS as a developer. I appreciate your work and love your honesty when discussing parts of an AWS service that you do not understand. You are my go-to source whenever I get stuck.

I cannot thank you enough for this video, it is exactly what I needed and ultimately extremely valuable to my journey learning AWS. You're an absolute legend. Thank you!

Found this to be a great primer of where to start. Only change I would make is to expand Compute section enough to know the difference between EC2, ECS, EKS, and Lambdas. Don't need to go deep, just what is the difference. Basically it hits a lot of the buzzwords that people are asking about, and identifies what the differences are.

Enjoyed watching the video. I am looking forward to watching additional videos as well. Just getting started in my AWS journey. We will see where I end up in a couple years.

Stellar content! This video is top-notch and super informative. Appreciate it! 👍

Great video! It really helped me to see were to get started with AWS with my web scraping project. Thanks!💯💯

Great video showing "the path to AWS". Thank you!

I'm in a AWS re/start bootcamp and you're right. They give us a bunch of labs and it's easier for me to comprehend doing the labs versus watching a video and reading notes.

So well structured roadmap.... thnku sooo much to upload such vedio as i was lost like where to start wat to cover

Thanks for the mindmap, great stuff

I agree with you about the experience part but from my 20 years in IT support those certs get you into the interview to get the chance to show your skills. Folks at the end of the day if you are trying to break into the field or level up, you're going to need both. And if you can do that your confidence level will be so high that at your interview, skills test etc. will be so low stress that they may just hire you because of how cool and calm you are. (just my opinion but it works for me in the past)

This is fantastic! I'm checking out this mind map in depth tomorrow! I'm really hoping to be able to flex some Cdk muscle and get comfortable building out aws infrastructure this way as this is what we're doing work.

As a data scientist and ML engineer, how would you extend the list of core required services for a data / ML role?

Excellent!

Would definitely recommend doing certifications along with hands-on projects. In my experience, hands-on projects are great for learning HOW to do, whereas doing certifications gives you an understanding of WHY something behaves the way it does.

Certifications are good for people who can't work at AWS for ten years to learn AWS.

@Sindoku

4 ай бұрын

You don’t need to work at AWS to use and learn AWS, mate. The certification is just a bunch of theory. It doesn’t truly translate to the real world other than one knowing theory but hardly ever actually applying it at all. That’s like reading about the theory behind a chess opening. You are fine as long as the opponent plays the exact moves you trained for, but as soon as you’re faced with a move you’ve never seen, you’re on your own again. That’s what real experience is, being able to figure out the scenarios you weren’t trained for, and also just using the stuff you did train for on real world projects instead of just in your head or some simulation.

You have valid points about not being that guy with AWS certification without practical experience. However, there are lots of people with little or no industry experience, an AWS certification help them get interviews? Yes.....Will AWS certification alone get them the job? Almost Impossible

Hi there, congrats on joining! Message me @dggalati on slack to say hello when you arrive :) Learning CloudFormation/IaC just takes practice. You can watch some of the videos on my channel as a first step (I have some on CloudFormation/CDK). I would suggest setting up some very simple apps to get the hang of how things work. I unfortunately don't have any resource suggestions besides my own content but Im sure you could find some high quality KZread tutorials. For diagramming, the standard go-to tool is draw.io . Another good option is Excalidraw. In both of them you can import AWS resource icons and the drag/drop interface is super simple to use. Hope this helps and congrats again.

You do not have a terrible memory. Your memory just works different. Your memory is stronger visually vs language wise. So things like maps of concepts will easily stick for you hut you will have a hard time with things like names and numbers. So you can actually use that to your advantage if you do it right. That said, i would guess you are better in creative roles vs administrative roles or technical roles

So it comes with a driver that I installed on my windows machine. It doesn't require much configuration actually, it kind of just "works" out of the box. I've tried two different ways to write using it: 1) Photoshop and 2) Onenote. Photoshop is definitely more powerful but isn't very well suited for taking notes on topics I am learning. One note is pretty good in terms of drawing ability, but also has a ton of organizational features and allows easy embedding of images / text inserts. Tbh I prefer OneNote currently.
