Troubleshooting and Optimizing AWS EC2 and EKS Deployments

When cloud infrastructure fails or costs spiral out of control, finding the root cause quickly is a critical engineering skill. This course equips you with the structured methodology needed to diagnose and resolve common performance, storage, and connectivity bottlenecks in cloud environments. You will learn how to systematicially analyze infrastructure issues and implement cost-effective, high-performing solutions. By working through this comprehensive, text-only guide, you will transition from reactive troubleshooting to proactive system optimization. You will gain a deep understanding of cloud resource behavior, enabling you to keep your applications running smoothly and efficiently. What you'll learn: - Understand foundational AWS networking and compute concepts before diagnosing issues - Troubleshoot SSH connectivity and security group misconfigurations on EC2 instances - Optimize EC2 costs using modern resource allocation strategies and monitoring tools - Manage Kubernetes rollbacks and application deployment failures on EKS - Resolve storage bottlenecks by tuning EBS performance and EFS throughput limits - Apply modern observability concepts to identify performance degradation before it impacts users The course begins with essential cloud architecture definitions and diagnostic frameworks, then guides you through real-world scenarios covering compute, storage, and container orchestration. You will learn how to isolate variables systematically and apply industry-standard remedies. This course is designed for beginner cloud engineers, system administrators, and DevOps practitioners who want to build practical troubleshooting skills. No prior advanced AWS experience is required.
