AWS LEARNING PORTFOLIO
Foundational cloud knowledge developed through Modules 1–7 of AWS digital training.
I can explain the value of cloud computing, on-demand delivery, deployment approaches, and pay-as-you-go pricing.
I can compare core EC2 concepts, instance and billing options, Auto Scaling, load balancing, and messaging with SNS and SQS.
I understand how Regions, Availability Zones, edge locations, and CloudFront support availability, resilience, and performance.
I can describe VPC fundamentals, public and private resources, VPNs, Direct Connect, hybrid deployments, and layered network security.
I can distinguish object, block, and file storage and explain when foundational database services fit different data needs.
I can explain shared responsibility, MFA, IAM access levels and policies, AWS Organizations, compliance, and foundational security services.
I understand the different roles of operational monitoring, activity auditing, and environment recommendations.
STATUS // Coursework in progress. Knowledge statements reflect completed learning modules; hands-on projects will be added as they are built.
04 / HANDS-ON CYBERSECURITY
Interactive labs completed across networking, web technology, computer systems, and foundational security concepts.
Built an understanding of how browsers, servers, DNS, and HTTP work together to deliver web content.
Developed foundational knowledge of networks, data transmission, and how local networks connect to the internet.
Explored security principles, computer components, ethical offensive testing, defensive response, and cybersecurity career paths.
05 / REASONING LAB
These scenarios show how I approach unfamiliar technical problems: stabilize first, gather evidence, test assumptions, and document what changed.
