That it was all new technology and offerings to myself. After being shown how quick and easy it is to set up certain services in AWS, I feel I could get a real benefit out of it for quick project and proposal prototyping.

There was a good general pass over what seemed like the most important parts of AWS. The instructor was open to questions and addressed areas of AWS that were not part of the outline based on our questions.

Everything. I had played around with AWS before but just on my own personal time. The training really brought everything together, with real world examples and how many individual pieces can be bolted together for a applicable solution.
