Configure and Deploy AWS PrivateLink

In this course, you will configure and deploy Amazon PrivateLink using the AWS Console. There is a video tutorial that shows how to create VPC endpoint services with network load balancers and private DNS. You will learn to provide permissions to principals and how to accept connection requests. Pricing for the service is reviewed as well. This course includes videos, knowledge checks and a demo.

• Creating VPC endpoint services in AWS PrivateLink using Network Load Balancers (NLBs) and enabling private DNS names for seamless consumer access.
• Configuring permissions and policies for principals (e.g., AWS accounts or organizations) to control who can connect to the endpoint service.
• Accepting and managing connection requests from consumers, including monitoring and troubleshooting PrivateLink connections in the console.
• Evaluating and applying PrivateLink pricing considerations (e.g., hourly charges, data processing fees) alongside security and architectural best practices for private connectivity.

• Gain practical ability to set up private, secure access to services across VPCs, accounts, or from on-premises, enhancing network security and compliance without relying on internet gateways or public endpoints.
• Understand the end-to-end workflow for PrivateLink deployment, including service provider and consumer sides, leading to reduced attack surface and improved data privacy in cloud architectures.
• Be equipped to apply AWS PrivateLink in real-world scenarios (e.g., SaaS integrations, multi-account sharing, or hybrid connectivity), supporting secure service exposure and consumption on AWS.

• 70-minute digital course content with video tutorials, step-by-step console demonstrations, and practical guidance on AWS PrivateLink configuration and deployment.
• Intermediate-level training in the Networking and Content Delivery domain, suitable for network engineers, systems administrators, cloud architects, and those with VPC foundational knowledge.
• Coverage of key AWS services involved (e.g., AWS PrivateLink, VPC, Network Load Balancer, private DNS) and alignment with AWS networking best practices.
• Certificate of completion issued.
