Good Morning. I'm really enjoying your videos as I am a recent AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner holder. I found this video very helpful as I am building my hard skills. I want to continue listening to your guidance, but I cannot seem to find find the next tutorial. Can you or someone post the video link?

[@Foxygrandpa2131]

I can’t believe I let my instance run all month and rack up charges. I guess that’s the price of learning. Thank you so much for the tutorial!

[@PerezTheDev]

Keep at it!

[@opulence_prime]

How much?

[@RohitTiwari-mo8mi]

Please upload a video on multi stage code deploy pipeline using github or bitbucket. Thanks🙏

[@vaibhav432]

[@nj2457]

Hi Stephane, Thank you for the info, but before launching the instance and for keypair can see two options RSA and ED25519, little confused which to select, can you help me.

[@user-gu3wf4vo1x]

Hello Stephan! You did a great job, thanks for it! But I have a question regarding the actuality of your course Now is already 2021, but the course was started in 2019 So, is this course outdated? Or can we pass the exam in 2021 by your course? Or can we cover different with new by using some materials?

[@StephaneMaarek]

Hello, I update my courses very frequently, and right now they’re up to date to the latest exam version! Regarding the UI, I try to keep up with it, but I am waiting every time for the UI to be definitive before recording again as AWS is experimenting. However, you can still follow my tutorials with the old or new version. If there are lots of changes, I’ll record the videos again. But you can defiantly pass the exam with my course, I guarantee you it’s updated and more than enough to achieve your goal! Happy learning :)

[@kulvindersingh2738]

Thanks , this helped a lot . But sometimes I receive file not found error on a running page. When I remove cache , history and run the page again by typing the page address manually in browser’s address bar and add www with url it fixes the issue and page is up again . Can anybody suggest anything to about this issue and what steps should it take to resolve it. Thanks

[@10DGjoHnSon]

Merci

[@Prashhantss]

Hi ....Great work Keep it up Can I get your ppts ?

[@knandi73]

Very good tutorial. There is a CSV file in the local computer. It is uploaded to S3. Any changes made in the CSV file on the local computer, the changes should reflect in S3 automatically. How to do that?

[@Revanth2344]

Cloud storage is must..setup pipeline with git

[@TheLuismaBeaTle]

Is there a chance to use cloud computing for using architecture render programs that are otherwise too much for my computer to handle? I want to avoid having to buy a new computer

[@rectifierYT]

I have one question regarding the EC2 instance. How many users or loads/bandwidth can one EC2 instance handle? Is there any estimated number that this many users/loads it can handle (I know that it depends on the app, for now, let's take this WordPress site, shown on this video with 1000 monthly users)? I also can't tell if this question is valid or not, I am just a beginner, please help me with it. (Though I know EC2 has Auto Scaling)

[@RotterStudios]

i have a dedicated server and would like to try ec2 but it seems there are too many tiers, pricing options and i don't like surprise bills

[@anisdhouieb9918]

You van try the free tier for 1 year. T2.micro instances are for free moreover you can monitor your consumption

[@anilgadekar3036]

[@StephaneMaarek]

Hello, I have a team of teacher assistants who answer questions in the Q&A section of the course on Udemy. Because I want every student to have access to every question and every answer, I do not reply to technical questions through LinkedIn or any private communication channel. Therefore I ask you to please post your question on the Q&A section on the course. If you already posted your question, we will answer it as soon as possible. Happy learning :)

[@ejohnson5448]

What exactly is an instance? In plain words please.

[@less963]

An EC2 instance is a virtual server in Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) for running applications on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure.

[@anisdhouieb9918]

A virtual machine

[@djhaik]

a computer sitting in a building owned by amazon somewhere

[@wertiadreams7949]

A terminology invented by Amazon to charge you more for nonsense

[@sbsafi4981]

I didn’t get honestly what is this for 😐

[@blessingantwi9430]

I bought your Udemy course (AWS Certified Solutions Architect). You speak far too fast for a teaching course. You rattle through the course content. The course content is good but it is as if you are teaching yourself and not the students. When I slow it down to 0.75x, it is too slow for me. Your are trying to communicate vital information, please take your time to talk. Also when are you posting updated AWS Solution Course which you speak slower. I would appreciate if you could give me access to that one as a consolation. Thanks

[@YA-vl8jh]

Didn't really explain anything tbh, you just clicked stuff and didn't really explain what the things mean. Needs a clearer explanation of all the points mentioned
