Overview
AWS Fundamentals is Amazon's own beginner specialization for getting oriented across the breadth of AWS — not just one service, but the mental model of cloud computing itself. It covers compute (EC2, serverless), storage (S3), identity (IAM), monitoring (CloudWatch), and databases (DynamoDB), tying them together into a picture of how real cloud architectures are built, secured, and scaled. With over 320,000 learners, it's one of the most-taken cloud on-ramps on the platform — a strong signal it delivers on the fundamentals it promises.
Who it's for
IT professionals, developers, or career-switchers who are AWS-curious but haven't touched the console yet — no coding or infrastructure background assumed.
