Program

Module 1Advanced Fundamentals of Amazon API Gateway: Modeling and Initial Deployment (AWS Console, CLI, Swagger)

Discover advanced REST and HTTP models of Amazon API Gateway through practical labs on the AWS console, configure custom mappings and integrate Swagger to document your APIs, deploy your first gateway with mocked backends, test endpoints in real-time with Postman, and generate compliance reports to validate professional deliverables.

Module 2Amazon API Gateway Integrations: Coupling with Lambda and AWS Services (Proxies, VPC Link)

Dive into serverless integrations by connecting Amazon API Gateway to Lambda for dynamic functions, configure VPC Links for private backends, manage request transformations with Velocity templates, perform exercises on real enterprise cases like e-commerce APIs, and produce scalable architecture diagrams ready for production.

Module 3Amazon API Gateway Security: Authentication and Authorization (Cognito, IAM, JWT)

Strengthen your APIs with Amazon API Gateway by implementing Cognito for user authentication, integrate IAM and Lambda Authorizers for granular controls, manage quotas and throttling against abuse, test attack scenarios via secure labs, analyze CloudWatch logs to detect vulnerabilities, and deliver a certified security plan for your professional projects.

Module 4Amazon API Gateway Optimization: Caching, Monitoring, and Scaling (CloudWatch, X-Ray)

Optimize Amazon API Gateway performance with advanced caching strategies and custom redirections, configure CloudWatch alarms and X-Ray traces for real-time monitoring, simulate traffic spikes to test auto-scaling, analyze latency and error metrics on concrete enterprise cases, and deploy custom dashboards for proactive supervision.

Module 5Deployment and Best Practices for Amazon API Gateway: CI/CD and Microservices (SAM, Terraform)

Master automated deployment of Amazon API Gateway via SAM and Terraform for robust CI/CD pipelines, integrate into microservices architectures with EventBridge, migrate legacy APIs to serverless, complete a final project on a complete scalable API, review AWS Well-Architected best practices, and obtain reusable templates to accelerate your enterprise developments.

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.

Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

Live briefing on goals and team context.
Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.

Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
Program co-written then validated by your team.

Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
