After selecting AWS as your organization’s cloud provider, users will generally have the question, “how do I move my existing web and mobile apps?” Watch this one-hour webinar where our AWS course director and master instructor Rich Morrow discusses best practices and techniques, the core AWS services to use and performs a live demo of migrating an existing site. Using AWS best practices  and concepts we cover in the "Migrating to AWS" course, in this hands-on interactive webinar, we'll explore: The value of migrating to AWS The phases of migration: Discovery, Planning, Migration, Validation and Optimization Core services used in a web app migration Live Demo on AWS: Migration of an existing site to show users how simple and quick it can be Recommended AWS courses: Migrating to AWS Architecting on AWS Systems Operations on AWS

The coronavirus pandemic changed how people around the world work and receive skills training. Virtual meeting services saw incredible growth, they also faced new security challenges. As a key Global Knowledge partner, we worked closely with Gary and the Zoom team as they rapidly upgraded their platform to ensure the maximum possible level of safety for all users. However, technology is only as powerful, or safe as the people who use it. So, in this webinar Gary will provide expert (and entertaining!) advice on how to use virtual meetings safely when there is not a Global Knowledge instructor on-hand to help. Joining Gary is Kevin, our CXO: another big personality with a wealth of IT experience and a passion for ensuring our customers receive the best possible experience, every time they connect with Global Knowledge.

Database Management Systems (DBMS) have been monolithic structures with their own dedicated hardware, storage arrays, and consoles. Amazon Web Services (AWS) realized that while each company can use unique methods of collecting and using data, the actual processes of building the management infrastructure are almost always the same. AWS remedies DBMS problems with its Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS).

AWS has introduced Auto Scaling so that you can take advantage of cloud computing without having to incur the costs of adding more personnel or building your own software. You can use Auto Scaling to scale for high availability, to meet increasing system demand, or to control costs by eliminating unneeded capacity. You can also use Auto Scaling to quickly deploy software for massive systems, using testable, scriptable processes to minimize risk and cost of deployment.

Discover how the enhanced performance and reliability of Amazon Aurora will help AWS customers reduce performance bottlenecks in their applications. The relatively low cost of Aurora will tempt many customers to migrate workloads to this implementation of RDS.

In this one-hour webinar, AWS consultant and instructor Ryan Dymek, will discuss how to optimize your AWS architecture design.

The idea of building and running applications without thinking about the servers (AKA serverless computing) is a developers dream come true.  Watch expert Rich Morrow to understand: The benefits of using serverless computing Different architectures that use serverless computing How AWS services, like Lambda, S3, API Gateway and DynamoDB work together to enable faster and more flexible application deployment and management. This video also features a live demo: Building a web app with only serverless components.

As far as modern architectures go, there are few more complicated than an IoT pipeline. You’ve got to consider an ingestion layer (typically streaming) that may undergo manic load. You’ve got to think of data tagging, storage (probably across multiple engines), archival and access—both internal and external. And all of it has to scale like crazy, be as cost effective as possible, and use automation wherever it can. Oh, and your boss needs the IoT pipeline built by tomorrow. Short timelines? Tight budget? Unrealistic expectations? Unfortunately, these asks are realities for many cloud professionals. AWS knows this and is here to help.
