This capstone course for the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Specialization covers additional AWS services and the AWS Well-Architected Framework — the tools and principles that elevate a good cloud architecture to a great one. Covering approximately 2 hours and 29 minutes of expert instruction, learners discover services that extend the AWS platform across analytics, messaging, machine learning, and migration, and learn how to evaluate any architecture against the five pillars of the Well-Architected Framework.

Learners benefit by understanding how additional AWS services address specific business needs, and how to apply Operational Excellence, Security, Reliability, Performance Efficiency, and Cost Optimization principles to review and improve AWS architectures. By the end of this course, learners will be able to recommend appropriate AWS services for specialized use cases and evaluate any AWS architecture against industry best practices.
