Nice basics Information
There seem to be quite a few holes in the teaching, as well as some very badly written quiz questions.
Things that merit more explanation:
AWS CloudTrail - this logs API usage, but Gordon says it also logs keystrokes and commands run... typically, the keystrokes and commands would have taken place in an application that calls an API so I find it unusual that CloudTrail has access to this - it implies that CloudTrail has access to the upstream app.
EBS - Gordon says that this can be used to store an O/S or application and only the relevant blocks need to be updated for changes. Doesn't this create a dependency between the software and the file structure? The software would need to be broken down into component parts stored in discrete blocks.
Dissatisfied...
I was never able to complete due to bugs in their quiz.
