Hello, and welcome to this learning path, my name is Stuart Scott and I’m the AWS Content Director here at Cloud Academy.  

I’ve designed this content to help you get the most from the re:Invent session entitled NET206: Advanced Amazon VPC design and new capabilities.

As highlighted by AWS, this session explores the answers to the questions you may have relating to VPCs, such as how Amazon VPC features affect the way you design your AWS networking infrastructure that you use today.  

So if you are responsible for network architecture and enhancing the design of your VPC networks, then this is a great opportunity for you to gain some great insights!

To support this session, I have curated this customized learning path which can be broken down into 3 distinct sections.  

Firstly we have a series of courses and hands-on labs to help you understand the fundamentals of the topics and services that will be highlighted during the re:Invent session to allow you to follow the concepts mentioned. This will make it easier to absorb information in the session that follows, enabling you to understand the insights and key takeaways during the talk at a greater level.

Next, we have the re:Invent Breakout session itself which you can attend or view.

And then after you have taken this session by AWS, I have compiled additional content that I recommend that you focus on to enable you to build on the knowledge gained throughout the learning path, again this will be a series of courses and hands-on labs, which will end with a VPC implementation challenge lab.  This additional content will help to develop your skills in this area even further, and with more confidence! 

If you have any questions as you progress through our content, feel free to connect with me with any questions using the details shown on the screen. Alternatively, you can always get in touch with us here at Cloud Academy by sending an e-mail to support@cloudacademy.com where one of our cloud experts will reply to your question.

Ok, let’s get started!
