How to Learn This

  • 1Practice a repeatable structure: requirements, compute, storage, networking, redundancy, cost.
  • 2Prepare 1-2 fully worked-through examples (e.g. a 3-tier web app with auto-scaling).
  • 3Practice justifying trade-offs (cost vs redundancy) explicitly as part of your answer.
