If I had to explain Amazon Web Services (AWS) to my grandmother (or any other beginner), I would not tell her it’s a comprehensive cloud computing platform that offers scalable solutions and so on (even though it is). Instead, I would keep it super simple, free of jargon, and focus on the basics. That’s my approach to this video. In just a few minutes, I explain what AWS is, why you would use it, the problems it solves, and the foundational services you might want to explore further. Hope you enjoy! 🌟🌟If you’re interested in getting AWS certifications, check out these full courses. They include lots of hands-on demos, quizzes and full practice exams.

After searching dozens of channels to learn AWS finally I found a channel who explains AWS concepts as a grandchild ..!!!! Really appreciate your hardwork !!!😇😇
truly friendly tutorial, Amazon should definitely hire you for educational videos
What else do you want to learn about AWS? Let me know below in the comments!
I absolutely appreciate this simple explanation, thank you for sharing!
You are the best grand daughter I could ever ask for. Your voice and pace is very reassuring for a complex subject such as AWS. Thank you.
Excellent video. I have known about "cloud computing" for decades. (I was even involved in a failed project in the 1970s that invented the phrase.) But I never put web site providers and cloud computing in the same bag. You just showed me that there's a pretty fine line between a web server farm and a cloud computing provider. Thanks.
You are the best AWS tutor I have come accross
You are delightful. Your tutorials will definitely help me keep my job. 😂
I learn that aws replace 90% of current business operations
I needed to refresh this concepts and im watching all your tutorials and they are SO GOOD thank you so much for sharing all this information. I hope I am a smart girl engineer like you one day. Honestly thank you so much queen
Wonderful explanation, not only for grandmothers but also for their sons and the whole family...LOL
Thanks, Much love❤
You're right about keeping it simple, assuming that people are newbies. We've done S3 for years, but I need to learn EC2 and I watched your EC2 Basics video and was able to launch a server. Other videos left out details that they must have assumed I knew. I once knew a middle school assistant principal who said, "You need to make people successful as quickly as possible." You do that!
Is there any course dedicated to learn AWS, to start career in Cloud computing or Cloud Engineer...
I am a bigginer, is this tutorial useful for me or is it advance?
I have watched 10 videos that explained the same concept, but it was full of jargon that I did not understand. This video has made it so simple and useful!
The explanation was simple and effective.
This was amazing! I'd love a whole course by you on AWS!
I’m glad I found this video.
This was both clear and engaging.
