What you'll learn:

Guided Hands-on Disaster Recovery Architectures and their Recovery Characteristics

Architectural Principles to Meet Specific Recovery Time and Recovery Point Objectives

Difference between Continuous Backup (point in time recovery) and Scheduled Backups

Continuous Replication options to Minimize Data Loss

Standby and Active Infrastructure to Reduce Downtime

Requirements:

This is an intermediate course (and not for beginners)

You need an AWS account with administrative access to complete the labs

You also need to be familiar with EC2, ELB, IAM, and Databases

Description:

Hi and Welcome to the Resilient Architectures on AWS with Practical Solutions courseThis course teaches you how to design and implement disaster recovery architectures that minimize downtime and data loss. You'll deploy a multi-tier application and evaluate Backup and Restore, Pilot Light, Warm Standby, and Multi-Region Active-Active solutions. Additionally, you'll learn strategies for recovering from malicious and accidental data loss, as well as regional failures. The course also covers techniques for reducing recovery time (RTO) and data loss (RPO) using DynamoDB Global Tables and Aurora Global Database.I am Chandra Lingam, and I am your instructor.In this course, you will learn:Key concepts and terminologies related to disaster recoveryThe concept of "Everything Fails, All the Time" as espoused by Werner VoglesThe meaning of resiliency and availability, and how they differThe distinction between fault tolerance and high availability and why high availability alone is not sufficient for disaster-proofingHands-on labs to apply the concepts learnedYou will deploy a multi-tier web application using DynamoDB Global Table, Lambda, API Gateway, EC2, Elastic Load Balancer, and Route 53Explore backup and restore options using AWS Backup, configure point-in-time-recovery (PITR), schedule backups and maintain copies in a second regionSimulate malicious data loss and corruption and learn how to recover the dataHandle the loss of a region using Backup and RestoreConfigure the App in Pilot Light mode and observe how it minimizes data lossUpgrade the infrastructure as Warm Standby and how it helps to reduce recovery timeLook at the multi-site active-active configuration for a zero-downtime solutionLearn how DR changes with relational databases such as RDS and AuroraConfigure point-in-time-recovery, schedule backup, and continuous replicationPerform both Managed Failover and Unplanned Failover to a DR Region using Aurora Global DatabaseThis is an intermediate level course, you need to have an AWS account with administrative access and be familiar with EC2, ELB, IAM, and Databases. I am looking forward to meeting you!Happy Learning!Chandra LingamCloud Wave LLC
