What Should a Fresher Know Before Learning AWS or Cloud Computing?

After spending some time learning AWS, I realized that you don't need to know everything before getting started. However, having some basic knowledge can make the learning journey much easier.

Here are the areas I think a fresher should understand:

🔹 Computer Fundamentals – Basic understanding of how computers, operating systems, memory, and storage work.

🔹 Networking Basics – IP addresses, DNS, HTTP/HTTPS, ports, TCP/IP, and basic client-server concepts.

🔹 Linux Basics – Basic commands, files and directories, permissions, processes, and SSH.

🔹 Programming Basics – Knowing at least one programming language and understanding basic application concepts.

🔹 Databases – Basic SQL and understanding how applications interact with databases.

🔹 Web Basics – Understanding how a website works, including frontend, backend, servers, and APIs.

🔹 Git & GitHub – Basic version control knowledge is very useful when working with cloud projects.

You don't need to master all of these before starting AWS. You can learn them alongside AWS and improve through hands-on practice.
