You need to learn AWS RIGHT NOW!! 🚀

If you are in IT field you should learn the Cloud and AWS is the biggest player out there

Why Should I learn Cloud? 🤔
The Cloud is basically someone else's computer, in this case Amazon's computer.
Amazon has a large number of computers, or Servers.
In Simple terms, Amazon allows you to use their computers or servers for a service charge, and a large number of companies use it.
So, Companies instead of purchasing their own servers, which can cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars, they are basically renting Amazon's Server.

The reason why companies move their Infrastructure to Cloud is because of the Lower Cost, Freedom to grow, lot of features offered by Amazon.
So lot of companies are moving their Infrastructure to Cloud and this why they need you they need skilled IT people, people who know AWS to help them move their stuff to the Cloud and once it their they need help managing it.
This is why there is so much demand for this skill.

Where do I start learning? 🥺
You can choose between two certifications. The first is AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner. This is an entry-level certificate, so if you're new to the cloud and IT, this will be perfect for you.
If you are already in IT and have some knowledge of the cloud, you should pursue the second certificate, AWS Certified Solution Architect Associate. This certification will allow you to get your foot in the door as a Cloud administrator.

If you want to obtain these certifications, there are numerous free and paid courses available online; however, I will write some articles to get you started with AWS.
