    AWS

    i went through an AWS certification course this week. i have worked with AWS
    a few times before so none of it was new to me, but they keep changing the names of things (AWS aurora?) and the labs, EC2 instances, and databases
    take a while to spin up so there was a lot of downtime that i filled with
    90s R&B music videos. i get that the whole point of the certification is to
    get familiar with the different services amazon offers and how they interact with each other, but it felt a lot like i was just memorizing an AWS sales pitch:

    "AWS packs a punch! With tools like EC2 for compute, S3 for storage, EBS for block storage, Glacier for archival storage, Lambda for serverless, RDS for databases, Aurora for SQL, DynamoDB for NoSQL, EKS for Kubernetes, Elastic Beanstalk for app deployment, Redshift for analytics, CloudFront for
    delivery, Route 53 for DNS, SageMaker for machine learning, IAM for
    security, and CloudWatch for monitoring, CloudTrail for auditing, Artifact
    for compliance, Athena for Analytics, and Snowball for data transfer: AWS
    has you covered, transforming scalability into innovation. AWS the right fit for you! Thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video!"
