Overview

“AWS Lambda & Serverless” is designed for roles such as System administrators and infrastructure teams and Software developers and architects. In 6 hours you work your way through Lambda-Funktionen & Trigger, API Gateway and EventBridge & Step Functions in a structured way – with plenty of practice and time for your questions.

Cloud platforms are the foundation of modern IT: from virtual machines and managed services to serverless architectures, applications now run on AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud or European providers. Our courses teach the knowledge teams need for planning, operating, securing and controlling the cost of cloud workloads. Each course lasts one day, runs online or on site, and relies on hands-on exercises in a provided cloud environment. You will not only learn consoles and services but also make well-founded architecture decisions and apply proven patterns for security, availability and cost efficiency.

The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.
