Today I published my free Google Cloud study course. This is a big milestone since this means that I now have a free cloud certification course for AWS, Azure and GCP. (Oracle is not as popular but...
So I've made some progress with my synthetic voice. With about ~1000 voice clips the results are quite decent. Still, more can be done to improve the quality. https://twitter.com/andrewbrown/status...
It looks like recording and shipping a cloud certification course every week for the past 5 weeks has been a serious toll on my voice. I have the Google Cloud Digital Leader study course 95% record...
The SC-900 is now released for free on freeCodeCamp. Next week I'll be releasing the Google Cloud Digital Team Leader, though I have to sit the exam first because there are no practice exams and I ...
While sourcing resources for my Serverless Fundamentals course I noticed there are ill-defined and sparse public resources for the process of adopting serverless. I am trying to codify this process...
My SC-900 course is running a bit behind because I have a newborn. So I'll likely have it recorded by the middle of the week.
Micorsoft has two free resources to get certified: • Microsoft Learn - an open course for their certifications • Cloud Skills Challenges - end-to-end video study workshops You would think because t...
I am nearing the completion of my SC-900 draft content and can begin recording this weekend. The most interesting take away for me was discovering in depth more about Azure AD B2C I came Azure AD B...
I am going to re:Invent in-person this year. I have been to re:Inforce but never the big one. The largest obstacle for me has been the overall cost because I'm from Canada. • ~$1000 USD - Airfare •...
Another free cloud certification course by yours truly. This is the Azure AI-900 AI Fundamentals. My personal interest was to dig into Azure's ML Studio to see how it compares against SageMaker and...
I wanted to get into blockchain and dApps for a while now, but I always had lots of friction getting a wallet, and then actually purchasing cryptocurrency. I realize buying dogecoin is neither core...
A few detours from course creation today: • I was exploring graph databases because I am currently using a relational database for my IAM system in TeacherSeat and I keep hearing I graph databases ...
I created this course for Startup School. This was a very under-appreciated course. Even with very little youtube views, I was surprised how many startups really appreciated this course. https://ww...
I made this course because Oracle was letting people sit the exam for free and I thought I should give Oracle cloud a go. I think Oracle has potential but their certification expired after a year a...
Just a day before Christmas. Now people expect me to release a large and popular course in time every year. Sadly thats not how it works lol. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ia-UEYYR44s
This was my first freeCodeCamp course. This is actually my second version of this course. The first had been published on my learning platform but nobody knew who I was or how to find my site. Peop...
I had alot of fun creating this course because my 15 years was developing web-applications. I spent extra care with AWS Elastic Beanstalk and here I expanded more on my labs than any other course. ...
There was a lot of public interest in me producing a SysOps course and at this time I had a new microphone, a new workflow with higher quality assets. I created a detailed cloud networking primer m...
I had not intention to create me Azure certification after the AZ-900 and I had another content creator who wanted to create courses on my platform, I paid them and they bailed out half way so I de...
My first cloud meme, which when viral on Twitter and Linked In lol.
I had many students asking for me to create this course. While I was developing this course my team thought this would be like the Oracle certification that didn't have much traction, but I had a f...
Most people overwhelming like this meme. I poke fun at the Certified Cloud Practitioner and its alright because I'm the biggest enabler with over 1M+ people who have watched my fee course.
I really like Azure Data Factory, Power BI and Azure Synapse now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3qmqUZJ7l0
Why do Azure certifications have to be so hard? 😭
For one of my companies I needed to work with our junior data-scientist to deploy a tensorflow ensemble ML model. So this gave me a good excuse to work on my AWS ML Speciality Certification study c...
So about a year ago I kept bugging Google Cloud on Twitter to create a fundamentals course comparable to AZ-900 and CLF-C01. A few months ago Google Cloud announced the Google Digital Leader Certif...
It's been over a year since I released AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner on freeCodeCamp. Since then I have made many improvements to this course and I'm eager to re-release it
Busy creating slides for my Azure Certified SC-900. I'm on day 2 and more than half complete with slides. I am really interested in seeing how I can translate this over to AWS. Azure is much better...
