This course has been specifically curated to help you pass the AWS Certified: SAP on AWS Specialty exam and is ideal for anyone who is looking to learn more about the various Storage services in AWS in preparation for the exam.

The objective of this course is to provide a high-level introduction to Storage services in AWS, including:

• The Amazon Simple Storage Service, known as S3;
• Amazon Elastic Block Store, or EBS; and the
• Amazon Elastic File System, or EFS.

We’ll also discuss AWS services that can assist with large-scale data storage, migration, and transfer both into and out of AWS using the AWS Snow family, as well as hybrid cloud storage services and on-premises data backup solutions using AWS Backup and AWS Storage Gateway. And finally, we’ll wrap up the course with a discussion of Storage options for SAP on AWS.

Ideally, you’ll also have some exposure to the design and implementation of SAP workloads on AWS, including migrating these workloads from on-premises environments. Many exam questions will require a solutions architect level of knowledge for many AWS services, including AWS storage services. All of the AWS Cloud concepts introduced in this course will be explained and reinforced from the ground up.
