I bought AWS Cloud Projects to help my cloud skills while studying for the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam. The purpose of this book is to build up your AWS skills through hands-on projects.
I found Chapter 1: Deploying and Interacting with AWS Services particularly valuable as it made me realize that AWS or any technology – isn’t about memorizing services or configurations. It’s about cultivating a mindset that’s curious, analytical, and adaptable. That foundation of thought is what makes learning stick and innovation possible.

With the chapter being theoretical, it outlined the following topics:
• Architecting on AWS
• Getting started with AWS Console
• Navigating AWS CLI and SDK
• Understanding IaC

As I continue building my cloud expertise, I have a better understanding of what it means to architect on AWS and tools that are available to deploy and interact with its services.
