take our Getting Started with AWS Game Tech self-
paced online tutorial. This course introduces AWS
Game Tech services for business decision makers and
developers who work on games. You'll learn which
workloads are supported by various AWS services
and discover the value that the AWS Cloud brings to
game developers. If you register to access The Digital
Download on-demand content, you can also find our
session, Introduction to AWS for game development,
under the Fundamentals section.

Once you have the foundational knowledge,
choose a learning path from our training site that
fits your role. If you're a game developer, take the
compute path. If you're a data engineer or analyst,
take the analytics path. Maybe you're a solutions
architect or wear multiple hats. In that case, choose
either path to learn how to design a solution and
ensure that data-driven insights are used to improve
the gameplay experience.
Once you have a well-rounded understanding
of the AWS Cloud offerings, begin planning your
migration path. The AWS Cloud Adoption Readiness
Tool (CART) helps game studios of all sizes develop
a plan for cloud migration and adoption. You'll
answer 16 questions to generate a downloadable
report that rates your cloud adoption readiness
across areas of business, people, process, platform,
operations, and security.
With the AWS Pricing Calculator, you can explore
AWS services and estimate costs based on your use
cases. This allows you to model your solutions before
building them, explore the pricing and calculations
behind your estimate, and find available instance
types and contract terms that meet your needs. Plan
your AWS costs and usage or determine the cost of
setting up a new set of instances and services to help
you make informed decisions about using AWS.
Remember that migration doesn't require moving all
existing workloads. Moving specific workloads to the
cloud is a great way to get started. Once you're ready
to migrate existing game workloads to the cloud, you
can begin the AWS Migration Acceleration Program
(MAP). If you're ready to talk to us about building
your game on AWS, complete this short registration

contact you to discuss your requirements and AWS
Support options.
