Most AWS books are written for developers or assume you already work in IT. Cloud Without Fear was written for everyone else — the entrepreneur launching a startup, the IT officer managing a small team, the student preparing for their first cloud certification, the professional switching careers. Written by a practising cloud engineer with nine years of real-world deployments across Africa, this book takes you from creating your very first AWS account to building a serverless API, configuring a secure virtual network, and managing cloud costs — all without assuming prior knowledge. Every concept is grounded in real-world scenarios drawn from businesses in Lagos, Nairobi, Singapore, São Paulo, Oslo, and beyond. Twelve chapters, eleven hands-on labs, zero fluff. The cloud is not complicated — you just need the right guide.
