First when I started the course on AWS, it seemed boring. It seemed like an ad that won't stop of a company built by a person I don't really like. That start was painful; excruciating at times. But I had a fair amounts of marks riding on it, so finishing was my only choice.
I tried to keep my motivations up, and told myself repeatedly about the importance of cloud computing. No matter how difficult the course was, AWS is one of the leading cloud computing service providers and I will need in future regardless of where I work. Plus, most companies cannot afford to run without cloud computing because that requires huge investments and maintenance. So, as someone who wants to make a good living in the future had to learn it well.
Thus, I tied myself to the chair and put my mind to it. It got interesting with the lab parts. And I did learn a lot about the services Amazon provides. This knowledge helped with the TIS project and will probably help in the future as well. So it was worth it.
I think it was a really good move to include AWS in SECP1513 course because if I wasn't forced do it, I wouldn't have. And I am glad that it was included because I feel like I know something more than I did before after this course. So, I would like to advice all my friends on this course that try to get yourself motivated and realize why this course is important then put effort into it. You will not regret it.
