Great introduction into the best practice for continuous integration and deployment and how to apply these concept in the cloud. Good balance between practical and theoretical.

Everything I have been looking for to get started with cloud computing frameworks and concepts. The content was applied and well explained by Prof. Gift.

Overall this course has been extremely beneficial to me. It's helped to bring clarity to the modern software development process. I do like the fact that Noah includes "mistakes" in his videos because rarely things go perfectly when you're doing them on your own and it helps with learning how to debug.

There were some portions of the videos that skipped critical steps and it would be helpful if you'd go back and add a few points. For instance in the final project, knowing how to create the proper policy so that the CodeBuild service has the proper permissions is critical. It would be extremely helpful to create a 10 min video to explain this.

I'm torn, because on one side this course is giving really practical touch to translating computing into daily business activities, on the other side it's within the presentation/videos very generic (a lot od talking, not much synthetical slides). And it does require python intermediate level as well as github experience. Me as a person without the technical background and knowledge of programming could not leverage on labs at all.

Awesome Course, the unique I didn't like was: The use frameworks like Flask and Hugo, but don't explain such about them, we don't really learn about this frameworks, I hate the use of applications without proper teaching, this get you off. But I still recommend it.

DevOp concepts are explained well and taught, but web deployment at the end gets a bit tangled up. Amazon also updated cloud9 interface so some things need to be learned independently. I look forward to the remaining courses in the specialization.

Really loved some of the tutorials on here, however, there were a few with bugs and errors that should be updated. Overall though, great intro to all the cloud services and jargon you hear. Looking forward to the next courses.
