AWS Badge
1. Summary
The main purpose of completing the course is to receive the badge as a recognition from AWS Academy in mastering the basic of Amazon Web Services tools and functions.
2. My Motivation
I realized that I was quite slow in completing this task compared to the others as most of my friends has already finished all modules by the end of December 2021 and early of January 2022. Thinking that I should not be the only one being left behind, I have to speed up my progression. Hence, I was more motivated to finish the course as soon as possible.
3. Opinion on Getting The Badge, The Easiest & The Hardest Module
In my opinion, getting the badge was quite hard as it takes a lot of time to go through all of the modules. Hence, you have to spend your time outside of formal lectures hours to finish the course. Personally, I think the easiest module was probably Module 1, while the hardest one was Module 3 because I found it hard to understand the difference between AWS Regions, Availability Zones and edge locations, and also Module 9.
4. A Badge Worth
For me, this course brought me into the whole new world of web services. This badge brought a lot of impressions as it could signify someone’s efforts and passion in expanding their knowledge on computer science and also their determination to improve every single aspect in their works or company’s performance. Hence, getting the badge was a satisfaction to me.
5. Feedback on Whether Getting The Badge Improve My Knowledge & Skills on Cloud Computing
Getting the badge was surely improved my knowledge and skills on Cloud Computing. Even though it was quite hard, I was able to get better exposure and explanation on Cloud Computing through this course of AWS Academy. In addition to that, I could always refer to these modules when I need them in the future.
6. Opinion on Whether Every Company Should Shift to Cloud Computing
In my opinion, every company should shift to Cloud Computing if they still want to keep their company’s relevancy ranking in certain industries and run their company for a long time. Cloud Computing also bring companies into the maximum level of efficiency and at the lowest cost.
7. Opinion on Whether Every Computer Science/UTM Student Should Learn Cloud Computing
In my opinion, every computer science/UTM student should learn Cloud Computing as it could improve our knowledge in computer science field, which is our main field and increase our competency and worth in job opportunities all at a time. However, I wished the time given to complete all modules could be extended or divided into two semesters/courses as it took a lot of time considering students have a lot of works and tasks from other courses too to pay attention to.
8. Advice to My Friends Who Have Not Get The AWS Badge Yet
Being able to gain extra knowledge and education through this Technology and Information Systems course, without having to pay a big amount of money, was such a great opportunity that every student should not miss. Hence, we have to grab this chance and complete all modules provided as soon as possible.
9. My Direction After Completing The Badge
The badge would be meaningless if the inputs from the course remain as inputs. Therefore, I will fully apply the courses outputs/outcomes on other subjects if needed or suitable and in my future company.
10. My Opinion About Getting The AWS Badge Included in SECP1513 Subject
If not because of this SECP1513 subject, I would not probably go through this course from AWS Academy and get the badge from them. Hence, I am really grateful to have this opportunity on completing this course and getting the AWS badge.
