Overview
This webinar was presented on December 9, 2020, by our Director of Training and Mentoring, Ken Rimple.
In it, Ken explains how to take a new application from concept to production in AWS in eight weeks. You’ll learn how you can organize the overall development effort, get a head start on application development using Docker, build up the cloud architecture using CloudFormation, leverage AWS managed services to reduce application complexity, configure security using Cognito and JWT, and use AWS CodeBuild to run tests against the application.
Along the way, Ken recommends some solutions for common challenges you’ll face.
