    Study Notes

    AWS CLF-C02 Exam - Key Concepts

    • AWS Shared Responsibility Model: AWS is responsible for security of the cloud (infrastructure, hardware, software); customers are responsible for security in the cloud (data, applications, operating systems, access management).

    • AWS Responsibilities (Shared Model):

      • Network infrastructure and virtualization of infrastructure
      • Physical security of hardware
    • Customer Responsibilities (Shared Model):

      • Security of application data
      • Guest operating systems
      • Credentials and policies
    • AWS Training Resources (Instructor-led):

      • AWS Online Tech Talks
      • AWS Classroom Training
    • Improved Application Availability & Fault Tolerance:

      • Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling (adjusts EC2 instances based on demand)
      • Resources distributed across multiple Availability Zones (increases fault tolerance)
    • Availability Zone Composition:

      • One or more data centers in a single location
    • AWS Control Tower & CloudFormation:

      • AWS Control Tower uses AWS CloudFormation to create resources in a landing zone.
    • Advantages of AWS EC2:

      • Flexible, pay-as-you-go pricing
      • Integrates with VPC, CloudTrail, and IAM
    • AWS Well-Architected Framework - Security Pillar: Focuses on protecting information, systems, and assets with risk assessments and mitigation.

    • IAM for User Management:

      • IAM allows grouping users and managing permissions for groups.
    • AWS Organizations & Billing:

      • Organizations allow consolidated billing across accounts; in this context, one AWS Region is hosting resources
    • Amazon EC2 Reserved Instances (RIs):

      • Purchases of RIs affect pricing on instances
    • AWS Direct Connect: Creates a private network connection from an internal network to AWS.

    • AWS Responsibility (EC2): AWS handles hardware maintenance. Customers manage guest OS, apps with Docker

    • AWS Cloud Design Principle: Use loosely coupled components (separate systems) for easier updates and management

    • Customer Responsibility (Shared Responsibility Model): Managing guest operating systems is a customer responsibility.

    • Cost Governance Best Practice: Architecture optimization (designing effective, scalable, cost-effective solutions) is a critical best practice.
