Hello, and welcome to this course, which will provide an overview of storage options for SAP environments running on AWS.

Before we get started, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Danny Jessee, and I am one of the trainers here at Cloud Academy, specializing in AWS–Amazon Web Services–and AWS certifications. Feel free to contact me with any questions using the details shown on the screen, or you can always get in touch with us here at Cloud Academy by sending an email to support@cloudacademy.com, where one of our Cloud experts will reply to your question.

This course has been created for anyone who is responsible for implementing and managing SAP workloads on AWS, as well as anyone who is looking to take the AWS Certified: SAP on AWS - Specialty certification exam.

By the end of this course, you’ll have a greater understanding of the various storage offerings available when architecting SAP workloads on AWS, including block volume storage using Amazon EBS, object storage using Amazon S3, and shared file storage using Amazon EFS and FSx. You’ll learn about the use cases associated with each of these storage options and be able to describe the enhanced flexibility, durability, and security they provide.

To get the most out of this course, you should have a basic understanding of AWS, including AWS storage services. It would also be useful to have some experience provisioning Amazon EC2 instances and creating and configuring EBS volumes, S3 buckets, and EFS or FSx file systems. For more information on all of these services, please check out this learning path and these courses:
