The course is primarily in video lecture format, with three hands-on projects to accelerate your learning and prepare you for using CodeDeploy in your environments.
The course will take you roughly one week to accomplish, depending on how much time you can dedicate to the course each day. The course is structured in two parts, lecture and labs. We will review all terminology, logical components/concepts, and basic examples in the first three sections. The last three sections will be hands on labs, covering a simple end-to-end CodeDeploy deployments for Linux and Windows servers, troubleshooting, and an advanced zero-downtime CodeDeploy deployment.
If you're in a DevOps role, a developer hosting their app in AWS, or a System Administrator managing instances in AWS, you need to take this course to take advantage of this amazing service. CodeDeploy experience can be a differentiator when looking for a new role and make you invaluable in your current position. It can automate your deployments and patching processes, allowing you to focus your time and efforts on more value-add activities. CodeDeploy provides the simple, robust orchestration you need for automating deployments to your instances, and this course provides the quickest path to leveraging CodeDeploy.
I look forward to you joining my course.

In this lecture I will introduce myself as the lecturer, discuss some reasons why you should learn about CodeDeploy and the benefits, and go over a high-level syllabus for the course.
In this lecture, I'll review a few suggestions to make this course easier for you to get started, make some clarifications about the course, and go over the course format.
In this lecture, we will create some of the pre-requisite components for CodeDeploy, including IAM instance profiles and roles, S3 bucket, and GitHub repo.
This lecture is a workshop - as the student, you should be following along and creating these resources in the background while you watch the lecture. These resources will be used throughout the course - if you don't create them during this lecture, you will not have the resources necessary for future workshops and projects.
In this lecture, we will launch several AWS resources (including ELBs, EC2 instances, Auto Scaling Groups, etc) that will act as our test bed for CodeDeploy deployments later in the course. We will also spend part of this lecture reviewing those AWS resources created.

Check your understanding of the concepts we've learned in Section 1
In this lecture, we'll quickly set up a 'skeleton' CodeDeploy application within AWS that we can use during our "Revisions" and "Structure and Publishing" lectures.
In this lecture, we will review the AppSpec file, discuss common mistakes, and walk through building an example AppSpec.yml together.
