[Serhii Kushchenko · Rating 3 out of 5]

If you follow the book's instructions step by step, you will achieve the promised results. However, this book provides only basic knowledge, which isn't enough for solving real-life tasks. Furthermore, it misleadingly suggests that deploying AWS services and seamlessly integrating Python code with them is easy. Many readers will be disappointed when they face actual cloud infrastructure challenges.
