AWS Professional Services Delivery Best Practices Bootcamp in NYC – Sept. 14th – Sept. 17th
Throughout 2015 we’ve hosted AWS Professional Services Delivery Best Practices bootcamps around the world for our Premier APN Consulting Partners and qualified Advanced APN Consulting Partners. We’re hosting another bootcamp in NYC from Sept. 14th – 17th and would like to tell you more about the bootcamp, along with the qualifications to attend.
What is the AWS Professional Services Delivery Best Practices Bootcamp?
The AWS Professional Services Delivery Best Practices Bootcamp is an intensive four-day bootcamp that mixes strategy and ‘delivery how-to’ derived from our own customer implementation and migration projects. We’ll expose participants to an array of topics, from our delivery framework and methodology, to providing deep levels of architectural patterns and examination, Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) comparison, Time to Return on Investment (ROI), foundational network design and connectivity, security optimization, application discovery and migration assessments, integration, planning and estimation, hybrid concepts, migration tools, logging, monitoring and automation, and much more. This course is designed to teach you how to:
- Understand the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework
- Understand how to perform an effective TCO analysis
- Identify use cases, reference architectures, and best practices for enterprise deployments
- Understand migration strategies, methodologies, and tools
- Architect a foundational design for an enterprise deployment with security controls and risk mitigations
- Establish cloud quality standards using a disciplined checklist and pointers to resources
- Use migration functionality for enterprise integration, validation, security, and access controls
- Run hybrid architecture using metering, chargeback, and show back
- Application discovery, prioritization, migration execution
- Design for application optimization using automation tools
It’s also a great opportunity to informally network with others like yourself from a variety of firms, and hear how they view the market and what their customers are doing. We’ve received very good feedback from those who have participated in the bootcamps delivered throughout 2015, and we look forward to delivering another in NYC.
