The AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) lets you manage your Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources using commands in your command-line shell. AWS CLI is an open source tool that helps you interact with AWS services directly from your command-line shell. It provides functionality equivalent to the browser-based AWS Management Console. This command-based interface allows for efficient management of your AWS environment and supports automation of common tasks.


In this course, you will learn how to use AWS CLI to control your AWS services through command-line operations, set up secure access to your resources, and automate routine management tasks. You will discover how to streamline your AWS operations by replacing browser-based console actions with efficient command-line instructions.
