Deployment Workflows for Linux and Windows via AWS CodeDeploy
Strengths
Hands-on Deployment Projects
The learning path utilizes practical workshops to cover Linux web tiers, Windows environments, and zero-downtime deployments using Auto Scaling Groups.
Troubleshooting Focus
Instruction includes dedicated exercises for debugging CodeDeploy revisions directly on instances.
Limitations
Outdated AWS Interface and Resources
Redesigned AWS pages and changed layouts can make following the steps difficult, sometimes requiring significant backtracking through the console.
Resource and Permission Mismatches
Some exercises may encounter errors due to unavailable Windows AMI options or unrecognized permissions during CloudFormation setup.
