FAQs

Is it worth it to learn how to automate EFS, EBS and S3?

For administrators who use Elastic File System, Elastic Block Store or Amazon Simple Storage Service on a regular basis, it's always worthwhile to learn how to save time and energy while becoming more efficient at the same time. If you use EFS, EBS or S3 regularly, it's definitely worth it to learn how to set up and manage operations – then you won't have to go in and manually configure or tune your storage.

Who should take this tutorial on automating AWS EFS, EBS and S3?

The most obvious candidate for learning to automate Amazon storage solutions is systems administrators who work with EFS, EBS or S3 regularly. Cloud administrators probably know quite a bit about the storage options already, learning to automate them won't take much more. DevOps engineers and cloud network architects should consider taking this tutorial so that they're familiar with AWS best practices for setting up automation solutions.

Are there any certifications related to this course on automating EFS, EBS and S3?

The AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner is a foundational certification meant for entry-level cloud administrators, but if you already know enough about Amazon storage solutions to automate their behavior and management, it'll definitely be an easier exam. The AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate is largely focused on using and optimizing data and data storage solutions, so that cert will also be easier after taking this automation tutorial.

How hard is it to learn about automation for EFS, EBS and S3?

Automating operations and management of EFS, EBS and S3 isn't especially difficult, but a lot of it depends on prior knowledge and experience. Here are some things that'll make learning to automate Amazon's storage solutions easier: prior experience managing and administering AWS workloads; familiarity with scripting languages and programming; an understanding of how to integrate automation practices with the goals of your organization; hands-on practice implementing automation of AWS resources.

What's the difference between AWS EFS, EBS and S3?

Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS), Amazon Elastic File System (EFS), and Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) are three distinct storage services from AWS that fulfill three different needs in the AWS cloud. While very different from one another, the main differences between the three is that EBS is a block-level, network-attached storage device, EFS is a network file system ideal for shared file-level storage, and S3 is object storage intended for large, unstructured data.

Who is this for?

This AWS EFS, AWS EBS, and Amazon S3 training is considered associate-level AWS training, which means it was designed for cloud developers. This AWS skills course is designed for cloud developers with three to five years of experience with cloud computing.

Very easy and fun way to learn. Keith Barker is my favorite, he'll throw in jokes here and there and it makes me remember certain study points. I highly recommend this app and purchasing subscriptions, it is truly worth the money.
