About Course
About AWS Application Development
Build and ship applications that genuinely run on AWS, not applications that merely mention it in a diagram.
There is a difference between an application that runs on AWS and one that happens to be deployed there. The first uses managed services deliberately, fails safely when a dependency disappears, and can be priced per request before it ships. This programme builds the second kind’s opposite.
Course Overview
12-week AWS Application Development training (72 hours) covering Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, SQS, EventBridge, CICD and application security. Live online and classroom.
Why Learn AWS Application Development
Product companies and SaaS firms hiring developers in India now treat cloud fluency as a baseline rather than a bonus. The roles above the band are the ones where a developer owns the delivery path end to end — data layer, integration, security and pipeline — not just the handler code.
The work also has room to grow. Developers who understand asynchronous design and partial failure move into platform and backend architecture quickly, because most production incidents in modern systems are integration failures rather than logic errors.
Who Should Join This Course
- Web Developers — Moving their back ends onto cloud-native services
- Backend Engineers — Needing serverless, queues and managed data layers
- Fresh Graduates — Targeting developer roles that expect cloud fluency
- QA Engineers — Crossing into development with automation experience
- Technical Leads — Owning delivery decisions on cloud services
- Freelancers — Shipping client products without running servers
Prerequisites
No prior AWS experience required unless the course page states otherwise. Basic IT familiarity, comfort with a web console and command-line basics are enough to start; AWS itself, its vocabulary and its operating discipline are taught from first principles.
Learning Objectives
- Build and deploy serverless APIs with Lambda and API Gateway
- Model data in DynamoDB against actual query patterns, not guesses
- Write asynchronous flows with SQS, SNS, EventBridge and Step Functions
- Add authentication and authorization with Cognito and IAM conditions
- Test, observe and debug a distributed application in production
- Ship changes through a CI/CD pipeline with quality gates
- Handle idempotency, retries and partial failure correctly
- Ship a production application with monitoring and cost controls attached
AWS Services and Tools Covered
AWS Lambda, Amazon API Gateway, Amazon DynamoDB, AWS Amplify, Amazon Cognito, AWS SAM together with CI/CD practice, distributed-systems failure method, and the ISO 27001 and DPDP obligations that apply to handling customer data in an application.
Career Opportunities After This Programme
- Cloud Developer
- Serverless Developer
- Backend Engineer (AWS)
- Full-Stack Developer (AWS)
- Integration Developer
- API Developer
Hands-on Practice and Capstone
Capstone: Build a customer-facing application from a written requirement: a serverless API on Lambda and API Gateway, a DynamoDB data layer modelled from the stated access patterns, asynchronous order processing through SQS with a dead-letter queue, Cognito authentication with fine-grained authorization, full CI/CD with a security gate, then ship it and operate it through a simulated production incident.
Production scenario: An order-processing feature starts dropping messages under load and nobody can say whether the queue, the handler or a downstream dependency is at fault. Reproduce it, trace it across services, fix the partial-failure handling that caused the loss, add the alarm that would have caught it, and prove the pipeline ships the fix safely.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is AWS Application Development training at SkilBrill?
It is the developer track for building software that runs on AWS: serverless APIs, managed data layers, asynchronous integration, application security and the pipelines that ship it. SkilBrill runs it over 12 weeks and 72 hours and finishes with a production application you then operate.
What programming language is used?
The course is taught primarily in Python because its AWS SDK support is the clearest to read, and every pattern taught transfers directly to Node.js or Java. If your team already works in another language the same services, design and pipeline patterns apply unchanged.
What does the syllabus cover?
Eight modules: development environment and SDKs, Lambda and API Gateway, DynamoDB and S3 data layer, asynchronous integration with SQS and EventBridge, authentication and application security, testing and observability, CI/CD, and a production application capstone.
What is the duration and fee?
12 weeks, three sessions a week of two hours each, totalling 72 classroom hours. Fees are ₹45,000 – ₹75,000 depending on batch and mode.
Do I need to be an experienced developer first?
You should be able to write and read code in at least one language and understand basic HTTP. You do not need prior AWS experience: the AWS-specific parts are taught from first principles, and the design patterns are the point of the course.
What jobs can I get after AWS Application Development?
Cloud developer, serverless developer, backend engineer on AWS, integration developer and API developer. In India these typically start at ₹5–15 LPA, with product-company backend roles at the higher end.
