Cloud computing has revolutionized the global IT landscape. If you are wondering how to begin your cloud journey, this roadmap breaks down the fundamental milestones.
Step 1: Learn Networking Fundamentals
Before launching cloud instances, master IP addressing, subnetting, DNS, and HTTP/HTTPS protocols. This makes understanding Virtual Private Clouds (VPC) intuitive.
Step 2: Get Hands-On with Core AWS Services
Focus on AWS EC2 (Compute), Amazon S3 (Object Storage), IAM (Identity and Access Management), and RDS (Relational Database Service). Practice creating and securing real instances.
Step 3: Build Portfolio Projects and Earn Certification
Deploy a real-world web application on AWS with Auto Scaling and Load Balancing to showcase your practical capabilities to potential employers.
