So I have loaded the scripts from every episode of Friends into a Snowflake database and I aim to analyse the words used and create a dashboard that anyone can have a play with by creating a roll up table with various statistics. For now that is a work in progress, so instead I am also going to use it in an episode by episode Friends trivia video series.
One of the things I like about this course are the instructors are really clear but also that it provides free labs that allow you to actually sign into AWS and perform some actions to actually create and do things without worrying that you are going to incur a cost. Today I complete one of the hands on labs. This was to create a lambda function, in this case it was a very basic python script that was searching a website for a keyword. I then placed this into a schedule and used cloudwatch to create a dashboard that monitored the running of this function. Overall it was a very simple use case but it was also a very simple process to setup. I don't have much to add to this other than it is well worth signing up to cloud academy for the free training if nothing else, I am tempted, once i have done some more training, to give the paid for option a go to get the full sandboxes.
