The final course in this domain builds on the skills to secure your AWS
resources in your machine learning (ML) solution. You will implement security
controls using the principle of least privilege and configure AWS Identity and
Access Management (IAM) policies and roles for users and applications that
interact with your ML systems. Finally, you will explore the Amazon
SageMaker security and compliance features to learn how to meet your
company's security requirements.

Lesson 1: Introduction to Managing and Monitoring Amazon EFS
This foundational lesson introduces the principles of managing and
monitoring Amazon Elastic File System (EFS), focusing on optimizing
, performance, controlling costs, and ensuring security. Below is the structured
breakdown:
1. Key Concepts
What is Amazon EFS?
A scalable, serverless file storage service for AWS and on-premises
workloads.
Designed for shared access across multiple instances (e.g., EC2,
Lambda, on-prem servers).
Why Manage and Monitor EFS?
Cost Control: Avoid overspending on storage or throughput.
Performance Optimization: Ensure consistent I/O for critical
applications.
Security: Protect data via encryption, access controls, and backups.
Reliability: Detect and resolve issues like throttling or credit
exhaustion.
2. Fundamentals of EFS Management
Key Management Tasks:
Throughput Configuration: Choose between Bursting (baseline +
burst credits) or Provisioned (fixed high throughput).
Lifecycle Policies: Automatically transition files to cost-effective
storage classes (e.g., Infrequent Access).
Backup Strategies: Use AWS Backup for automated, policy-driven
data protection.
Security Management:
IAM Policies: Restrict access to EFS file systems.
Encryption: Enable encryption at rest (AWS KMS) and in transit (TLS).
