Advanced Architecting on AWS Training in Belgium

The Advanced Architecting on AWS Training course is designed for experienced architects and IT professionals who want to build secure, scalable, highly available, and enterprise-grade cloud solutions on AWS. Building on the concepts introduced in Architecting on AWS, this advanced course focuses on designing, managing, and optimising complex cloud architectures for large-scale environments.

Participants will learn how to apply the AWS Well-Architected Framework while addressing advanced topics such as multi-account strategies, hybrid cloud connectivity, large-scale data platforms, security architectures, data protection, and performance optimisation. The course also covers high availability, disaster recovery, cost optimisation, and governance best practices required for enterprise cloud environments.

Through hands-on labs and real-world scenarios, learners will develop the skills needed to make architectural decisions in complex AWS environments, design resilient cloud solutions, and optimise modern cloud infrastructures at scale. The course also provides a strong foundation for professionals preparing for the AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional certification.

Participants should meet one of the following requirements:

• Completion of Architecting on AWS
• Achievement of AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate
• At least one year of experience operating AWS workloads

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

• Apply the AWS Well-Architected Framework.
• Manage multiple AWS accounts across an organisation.
• Connect on-premises data centres to AWS Cloud environments.
• Understand multi-region networking and billing implications.
• Design large-scale data storage solutions.
• Architect highly scalable web applications.
• Protect cloud infrastructure from DDoS attacks.
• Secure data using AWS encryption services.
• Design protection for data at rest and data in transit.
• Optimise the performance of AWS workloads.
• Select the most appropriate AWS deployment strategies.
