    Very useful introduction to the AWS cloud and cloud services in general. It introduces one to fundamental concepts, which are indispensable in the IT industry nowadays. I feel a lot more comfortable working the AWS cloud and to navigate through the plethora of resources at my disposal.

    I really enjoyed this course. The videos with the trainers made all the difference for me. I tried learning directly wiht AWS and always felt lost. The coursera offering was just what I was looking for in the way of guidance. A+ experience and I cannot wait to start my next course.

    I have been working in my company with AWS for a while, even I took some oficial AWS courses, but this is the first time that I feel that I have a complete picture about these services. Even if is superficial, I feel that will help me to go deep by my own for now.

    A very good introductory course - the access to the labs is particularly helpful. Definitely recommend taking the time to work through the optional lab elements to re-enforce the course content/ concepts / learnings.

    The course contains very good to have high-level view, but missed few important topics which are really needed to gain practical knowledge. It would be grate help if you can add those points as well to the course.

    It's a great course that covers the fundaments of AWS, like compute (EC2, Lambda), networking (VPC), storage (S3, EBS, EFS), databases (RDS, DynamoDB), and more (IAM, CloudWatch, etc.). Would highly recommend!

    A good overview of basic AWS services and functioning, with useful worked examples (the app used is extremely basic, but that's beside the point, which is how to set up a system using AWS)
