About AWS
I got the AWS badge by watching all the videos in the ten modules offered by the AWS foundation course. I also answered all the module knowledge checks and got above 80% for all the knowledge checks. After completing this AWS foundation course, I learned about Cloud Computing, how Cloud Computing works, what type of services AWS services offers, and others. I get to know and understand the more profound concept of Cloud Computing, but it is pretty tough for me. Some lab exercises are provided in the module to let us practice using services such as Amazon EC2, Amazon Lambda, and Amazon EBS. I took a few weeks to complete this AWS foundation course. I remembered I started module 1 at week 5 and 1 for one week. Fortunately, I finished up the course during my midterm semester break. After I got the badge, I realized that the badge looked like a certificate, and I was happy I could finish up the whole course and get the badge.

After completing the course, I know what cloud computing is and the benefits. Besides that, I also have a rough knowledge of how the AWS cloud computing service works. I also know that AWS provides several services to users. For example, compute, storage, networking, database, and identity & access management (IAM). Furthermore, AWS services have different type of application that provides various kind of services. For instance, AWS EC2, AWS Beanstalk and AWS Lambda. Moreover, users do not have to worry about the insufficient storage problem as AWS will help settle, and the users pay after they use, and they pay according to what type and how much they use. In conclusion, the AWS cloud computing service is an excellent platform for storing information and others. You do not have to use any money, time or energy to maintain the servers and hardware. Furthermore, AWS will do the monitoring job. This indicates that AWS cloud computing is an outstanding service.
My motivation to complete this project is because this project is extra knowledge, and it cannot be learned in class. Besides, this project carries 10 per cent based on the course information for this course. Hence, I must grab this chance and try to take this mark. I believe this mark will help me to get a better grade. Furthermore, finishing the AWS project and getting the AWS badge will help me increase my industry potential and provide me with more possibilities.
In my opinion, getting the badge is half easy and half difficult. Some topics are easy, while others are challenging for me to understand. I had to take time to understand the concepts. I think module 1,2,3,4 is relatively easy for me, but module 5 and 6 is quite challenging for me, and others are moderate. Modules 5 and 6 are pretty confusing for me. I had to rewatch the videos several times to understand what they meant. But luckily, I was able to pass the module knowledge check and success to get the badge. However, I might need more time to rewatch the videos to understand them more profound, as it will help me in future.
Yes, completing the course and getting the badge has improved my knowledge and skills in Cloud Computing. Before starting the course, I had no idea how cloud computing works. But the AWS Cloud Computing modules are explained clearly and shortly, which helps me understand deeper. Besides that, the AWS Cloud Computing modules have some lab exercises. Moreover, they guide me on how to use their Cloud Computing services. For example, Amazon EC 2, AWS EBS and Amazon VPC. Hence, I learned a lot of knowledge and skills from this course. Now, I can understand the operation of cloud computing services and can use some simple AWS cloud computing services.
