I was recently introduced to a File Transfer Protocol called Cyberduck.io and how I can use it to read and write files to an S3 bucket.

Hosting a static website in an S3 Bucket is not only simple but extremely cheap and depending on your storage size and a few other factors it can even be free.

After passing the Certified Cloud Practitioner exam (CLF-C02) and researching the next steps to help me get hands-on experience with AWS, I came across The Cloud Resume Challenge.

My portfolio needed a refresh, so I thought this was the perfect opportunity to try out AWS Amplify as it has a pretty seamless integration with Contentful CMS.

I want to detail how I intend to learn about IAM, hoping that the resources I used can help you learn too. There are many resources about AWS IAM from documentation, YouTube videos and labs!

Security in the cloud is extremely important and isn’t something where you should cut corners. Who and what has access to your cloud services is one of the first things you should establish.
