Are you familiar with Amazon Web Services? If not, you should change this situation as soon as possible.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive cloud platform, offering storage, databases, analytics, networking, developer tools, management tools, IoT, security services, enterprise applications, and much more to users all around the world. Even massive companies like GE, Unilever, BMW, and Samsung trust AWS to power their infrastructure.

With all of this in mind, it'll be no surprise to read that there are consistent job opportunities in the field. Fortunately, there are plenty of online courses out there that can help you get your foot in the door of this industry. And some of the best courses are even available for free on edX.

These are the best free online AWS courses on edX this week:

• AWS Cloud Practitioner Essentials

• AWS Cloud Technical Essentials

• Building Modern Java Applications on AWS

• Building Modern Python Applications on AWS

• Cloud Operations on AWS

• Getting Started with Data Analytics on AWS

These courses are totally free, but they don't include things like a certificate of completion.
