Important AWS services you should learn to get the AWS cloud practitioner certificate


To prepare for the AWS Cloud Practitioner certification, it’s important to understand the following services that AWS offers:

  1. Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2): This service provides on-demand, scalable computing resources in the cloud. It allows you to rent virtual machines (instances) on which you can run your own applications and services.
  2. Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3): This service provides object storage in the cloud. It allows you to store and retrieve files, such as images, videos, and backups.
  3. Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC): This service allows you to create a virtual network in the cloud, where you can launch AWS resources in a virtual network that you’ve defined.
  4. Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS): This service provides block-level storage volumes for use with Amazon EC2 instances. It allows you to store and retrieve data that persists independently from the life of the instance.
  5. Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS): This service allows you to create and manage relational databases in the cloud. It supports popular database engines such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle.
  6. AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM): This service allows you to manage access to AWS resources. It allows you to create and manage users and permissions, and control who can access what resources.
  7. AWS Lambda: This service allows you to run code without provisioning or managing servers. It allows you to build and run applications and services, in response to events and automatically scales to support the number of requests.
  8. Amazon CloudWatch: This service allows you to monitor AWS resources and the applications you run on AWS. It provides data and operational insights for various resources, including EC2, RDS, and S3.
  9. AWS Elastic Beanstalk: This service simplifies the deployment, scaling, and management of web applications and services. It allows you to quickly deploy and run applications in multiple languages, such as Java, .NET, PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, and Go.
  10. AWS CloudFormation: This service allows you to use templates to model and provision, in an automated and secure manner, all the resources needed for your applications across all of your accounts and regions.

It’s important to note that this is not an exhaustive list, AWS is a constantly evolving platform with new services and updates, so it’s recommended to always keep updated with the latest services and features.

Popular Reinforcement Learning algorithms and their implementation

  Popular Reinforcement Learning algorithms and their implementation The most popular reinforcement learning algorithms include Q-learning, SARSA, DDPG, A2C, PPO, DQN, and TRPO. These algorithms have been used to achieve state-of-the-art results in various applications such as game playing, robotics, and decision making. It is also worth mentioning that these popular algorithms are continuously evolving and being improved upon. Q-learning: Q-learning is a model-free, off-policy reinforcement learning algorithm. It estimates the optimal action-value function using the Bellman equation, which iteratively updates the estimated value for a given state-action pair. Q-learning is known for its simplicity and ability to handle large and continuous state spaces. SARSA: SARSA is also a model-free, on-policy reinforcement learning algorithm. It also uses the Bellman equation to estimate the action-value function, but it is based on the expected value of the next action, rather than the optim...

Supervised Machine Learning Algorithms Implemented in Tensorflow 2.0

  Supervised Machine Learning Algorithms Implemented in Tensorflow 2.0 Linear Regression : Linear regression is a statistical model that is used to predict a continuous outcome variable based on one or more predictor variables. It assumes that there is a linear relationship between the predictor variables and the outcome variable, and tries to find the line of best fit that minimally squares the differences between the predicted values and the actual values. The equation for a linear regression model can be written as: y = b0 + b1*x1 + b2*x2 + ... + bn*xn where y is the predicted outcome, b0 is the intercept, b1 , b2 , ..., bn are the coefficients for the predictor variables x1 , x2 , ..., xn , respectively. The coefficients represent the effect of each predictor variable on the outcome variable, holding all other predictor variables constant. Linear regression can be used for both simple linear regression, where there is only one predictor variable, and mult...

Popular Algorithms implemented in Python

  Popular Algorithms implemented in Python Search Algorithms Linear Search : Linear search is a simple search algorithm that searches for an item by examining each element in a list one by one until it finds the item or determines that it is not in the list. Here is an example of how you could implement linear search in Python: def linear_search ( list , item ): for i in range ( len ( list )): if list [i] == item: return i return - 1 # Test the linear search function list = [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ] print (linear_search( list , 3 )) # Output: 2 print (linear_search( list , 6 )) # Output: -1 In this example, the linear_search function takes a list and an item to search for as inputs, and returns the index of the item in the list if it is found, or -1 if it is not found. The function iterates over the elements of the list using a for loop, and compares each element to the item being searched for. If it finds a match, it returns the index of the element; ot...
