To complete the hands-on sections of this book, you will need an AWS account complete with root access. Chapter 1, AWS Certified Database – Specialty Exam Overview, contains instructions on how to set up your account in the best way. You will also need some software to allow you to connect to databases such as SQL Developer or MySQL Workbench.

If you are using the digital version of this book, we advise you to type the code yourself or access the code from the book's GitHub repository (a link is available in the next section). Doing so will help you avoid any potential errors related to the copying and pasting of code.
