Top 5 Sites To Learn AWS For Free
AWS is becoming a pioneer when it comes to Cloud Computing. It is already generating opportunities and it is only smart for us to have some knowledge in this technology.
As a beginner myself, I would always refrain from paying to learn something new. When I started with AWS, I used 5 sources online to help me get out of my beginner’s tag. I am going to share those 5 websites with you today.
Let’s get straight to the list —
1. edX courses
AWS created 100+ courses on edX that are high quality with practical exercises in each of them. Those courses will walk you through a range of services with numerous demos, exercises, and reviews of important concepts along the way.
Also, if you plan to have a certificate of your learnings from these courses, you will require to pay an additional $100 per course. But, if you are looking for learning the tech without certification, you can do it for FREE.
2. Qwiklabs
Qwiklabs is a perfect place for you if you are looking for a quick stint with AWS for your exploration in the cloud world. Here, you will not require to perform configurations as you will be provided with pre-configured AWS services.

3. AWS free tier Account
There is no better way of learning anything than by actually experimenting with it in real life. AWS offers a free tier for your first 12 months, which gives you (limited) access to the most popular services.
You can create your own account, set up a billing alarm to avoid unnecessary charges, and start provisioning resources and interacting with services of your choice. Here you can find a detailed overview of services covered by the free tier:
4. Official AWS Training Website
