Welcome! I’m here to teach you how you to master the fundamentals of AWS development with Python Django.

There are many sections in this course, but some of the key ones include the following:

Create a basic CRUD application in Django

– The first thing that we will do is create a simple CRUD application in Django – [Optional]

Docker with Django

– We will learn how to build docker images and transform them to run as docker containers with Docker Desktop.

Django + AWS Integration: Phase I and Setup and configuration
– The first phase will be very beginner friendly as we start to set up our AWS infrastructure.

AWS services used:

– AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)

– AWS Budgets

– Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3)

– Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS)

– Amazon Route 53

– AWS Certificate Manager (ACM)

Django + AWS Integration: Phase II

– The second phase will be very beginner friendly and prove to be beneficial to all levels as we start to set up our AWS infrastructure.

AWS services used:

– Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES)

– AWS Elastic Beanstalk

Django + AWS Integration: Phase III + IV

The third and fourth phase explores more intermediate concepts 

Here we will explore the CI/CD process. We will only focus on the basics of the CI/CD process and not delve into more advanced topics.

Simply put we will learn how to store our source code with AWS CodeCommit. How to create our docker image with AWS CodeBuild and store it within a docker image repository (Elastic Container Registry).

After that we will run and manage a simple container via ECS – Fargate. To ensure that our latest application is always live without any downtime we will ensure that we make use of AWS CodeDeploy.

Now this process involves a lot of services – to ensure that we can manage this we will make use of AWS CodePipeline to orchestrate our CI/CD pipeline.

AWS services used:

– Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR)

– Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) + With the Amazon ECS Fargate Launch type

– AWS CodeCommit

– AWS CodeBuild

– AWS CodeDeploy

– AWS CodePipeline

Final CI/CD demonstration

– A final demonstration on the basic CI/CD process of AWS

– How to briefly monitor your application usage with Amazon CloudWatch
