Amazon EFS Primer
Are you a builder who is interested in using Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS)? Do you want to understand how to get started with Amazon EFS? Then, this course is for you!
Amazon EFS provides a practical, serverless, set-and-forget elastic file system for use with Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud services and on-premises resources. It is built to scale on demand to petabytes without disrupting applications. It grows and shrinks automatically as you add and remove files, eliminating the need to provision and manage capacity to accommodate growth.
This course introduces you to the basics of file storage and the Amazon EFS service. You will learn what it is, how to get started, and how Amazon EFS integrates with other AWS services. You will also learn about the fully managed features of Amazon EFS such as availability, durability, and security. This course also introduces some of the primary use cases for Amazon EFS and their associated reference architectures.
