I just finished taking AWS's Operations training as well as AWS's Security training. I bought this book in hopes that it would assist me in preparing for my AWS DevOps certification. This book did not disappoint as it contained much of the same information as the Operations class I took. It was a great way for me to review what I learned, plus get my hands dirtier in AWS.If you want to learn about AWS and its offerings, I highly recommend this book. It's suitable for beginners to cloud technology provided they have some basic system administration background, and some networking experience wouldn't hurt either. You'll learn about the popular AWS services, what they do, and how to use them. You'll also learn about some of the not-so-well-known, but useful, AWS services too.Yeah, there are some sentences that are mis-worded but it really doesn't take away from the content.There is a huge overlap between what I learned in AWS Operations training and what I read in this book. Do not misunderstand me, however. This is not a substitute for formal training, nor is it an official study guide for the certification, but I believe it will be helpful in preparing for my certification exam later this year.
