Amazon Web Services offers high availability configurations for its services, an obvious area of interest for AWS SysOps admins. In this course, you'll begin with an overview of how AWS aids in disaster recovery and how load balancing improves app performance while increasing app availability.
Next, you'll learn how to manage a network balancer and deploy an application load balancer using the AWS GUI and CLI. You'll then work with EC2 placement groups and MySQL database replicas, learning how to carry out tasks like registering EC2 instances with existing load balancer target groups, configuring database replicas for MySQL, and creating MySQL database snapshots. This course is one of a collection of courses that prepares learners for the AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate (SOA-CO1) exam.
