50 practical AWS labs completed on the KodeKloud — 100 Days of Cloud program, covering core services from EC2 and IAM through to EKS, Lambda, and CloudFormation. Every lab was executed in a live AWS environment with real infrastructure — no sandboxes, no shortcuts. This repository documents the full journey as proof of consistent, hands-on cloud practice.
A hands-on 100 Days of Cloud (AWS) challenge completed via KodeKloud, covering core AWS services from compute and storage to networking, security, and serverless architecture.
Each day includes a real-world task, practical implementation, and key takeaways — building a strong foundation in cloud engineering through consistent daily practice.
