In the past decade, cloud computing has been gaining popularity at a tremendous rate. Some cloud providers are experiencing a growth rate of 50% year over year – which is just astounding. And the reason for this growth is obvious – cloud computing enables ubiquitous, convenient, on–demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources which can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal effort.
Amazon Web Services is a cloud computing platform that offers a broad set of global compute, storage, database, analytics, application, and deployment services that help organizations move faster, lower IT costs, and scale applications.
Ever since its inception – the relational database management systems have gained tremendous popularity across the world. Recently NoSQL databases like MongoDB has also gained a lot of traction – but still, RDBMS remains the de–facto choice of engineers when it comes to storing structured data. According to some estimates – relational databases are used in more than 90% of the software projects out there.
With the advent of cloud computing – solution designers and architects had to deal with some unique challenges while attempting to migrate their relational databases to the cloud. You see, relational databases need high–performance hardware and disks to perform at the peak level. But IaaS cloud computing services provide us with virtual servers – which store their data on network connected disks. So to manage relational data in the cloud – we needed a specialized PaaS (platform as a service) which provided adequate hardware and redundancy to relational databases.

Presentation could be more better,It would be better if they have provide highlighted points or brief explanation of the concepts in one or two lines on presentation slides instead of using more graphical picture.
Graycel Santos –
It was a deep How to explanation on AWS RDS and its features. The downside is that it was an older version of what we were currently using.
Patrick Eyo Ibok –
with this knowledge and experience, I got from this lesson I really appreciate it as I now understand more about data security, performance, scalability as well as permission.

I have been a DBA for nearly 40 years, but I’m just beginning to get my feet wet with AWS. This was an excellent course for familiarizing me with RDS before I take the plunge into moving production databases to the cloud.
Narendras –
Good
Lee Rosenberg –
This was a very good course. Clear and easy to understand examples. I’d definitely recommend to others starting out with RDS.
Amos Bunde –
The course has been my zipline towards my certification that I intend to do this year. I really appreciate the instructor giving me every piece. It’s life changing.

This course is good fit for my needs. Thank you! However, there are few improvements that can be made. 1. Some parts of the course have missing important information. Like some security rules. Lecturer says: We created this rule earlier. It was no lecture earlier how to do that. I recall at least two occasions of this kind. I was able to reengineer missing parts, but it might create difficulties for other students. It seems that happens because the course is mix of lectures done at different time. Like good bye on section 46 leads to another technical lecture on part 47. 2. Lectures work with outdated AWS software. Current AWS Console menus do not match whatever is show on the screen. It worth to mention such difference at least. 3. It would be nice to have exact transcript of the course to make sure there is no misunderstanding, like sync/async, etc. Captions do not interpret the lecturer speech clearly. Thanks, Andrew
