The fact that AWS is the most popular choice of cloud services provider creates a lot of interest among newbie developers who are keen to learn it. Truth be told, the learning curve of AWS can be steep for beginners. It is wise to be familiar with AWS instead of entirely focusing on it when starting your career. You need to have a sound fundamental understanding of basic concepts like client-server technology, networking protocols, using IP addresses and DNS. Having a clear base of these fundamentals is essential for you to pick up on advanced concepts intricately connected to the entire cloud ecosystem.
