🚀 My New Course 🚀 - Progress Update and Extended Discount Offer

Published 5 months ago • 1 min read

My new course, Web Scraping on AWS: Build a Serverless Real-Time Inventory Notifier, has wrapped up filming and is currently in the editing phase.

Modules have now been finalized and the good news is there's a lot more content than I originally anticipated. It's initially looking like there will be 5+ hours of content in total not including challenge exercises. The modules to be included are:

  • Course Intro
  • Problem Overview & Requirements
  • Design
  • Infrastructure Setup
  • Web Scraper Implementation
  • Discord Publisher Implementation
  • State Management with DynamoDB
  • End to End Flow and Edge Case Handling
  • Deploying to AWS
  • Summary, Challenge Exercises, and Next Steps

Since the filming/editing took longer than expected, I pushed back the release date to mid January. But the good news is I've also extended the discount. The listed price today ($50) will be increased to $60+ once the course is published. So if you're interested, pre-order now to lock in your savings: 👉 [Reserve Your Spot Today]

Below are some screenshots from the course to give you an idea of what you're getting into. As always, I offer a 100% no questions asked refund policy if you're not satisfied with the content, so there's no risk to you if the course doesn't meet your needs.

Thank you and stay tuned for more updates on progress and release date!

Be a Better Dev February 18, 2024 In a recent video, I expressed my frustration with AWS's definition of "Serverless". The video seems to have resonated with the community, particularly folks' frustration with how AWS is throwing the term Serverless around all willy nilly. The recent announcements of "Serverless OpenSearch" and "Serverless Aurora" come to mind as not-so-serverless serverless offerrings. What are your thoughts? Separately, my recent course - AWS Step Functions Masterclass -...

Be a Better Dev October 21st, 2023 AWS is stepping up their security game by making Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) mandatory for users signing in to root accounts. The new feature is expected to be rolled out by mid 2024 with affected users being notified via e-mail channels. This is a welcome change that probably should have been implemented since day 1. As I've mentioned in previous newsletters and YouTube videos, the amount of users that suffer from inexplicable "hacks" to their AWS...
