Training program
AWS Certified Developer Associate
Master building and deploying cloud-native applications using the full suite of AWS developer services.
Overview
Go deep on building and operating applications on AWS: serverless, APIs, data stores, messaging, auth, and CI/CD. You’ll ship realistic features in labs and prepare systematically for the AWS Certified Developer – Associate (DVA-C02) exam.
Top features
- Design and implement serverless and API-driven backends using Lambda, API Gateway, and related services.
- Use DynamoDB, SQS, SNS, and event-driven patterns appropriate to production workloads.
- Apply Cognito, secrets management, and IAM patterns that developers use daily.
- Build deployment pipelines and articulate trade-offs for interviews and the DVA-C02 exam.
