Look inside

The Nextstellar Corp media service has a lot of data—too much data to handle on prem! In order to properly analyze all the data generated by their streaming customers, they’re migrating to the cloud. In this liveProject, you’ll be helping them. You’ll tackle the common challenge of transferring on-prem data to AWS using the handy AWS DataSync tool. You’ll use Infrastructure-as-Code to create Landing Zone Amazon S3 buckets, automate data migration, and finally prepare a summary of likely infrastructure costs for your boss to review.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.
