"aussi" basically means "so...", "as...", "just as..." and goes before an adjective/adverb.
"autant" basically means "the same quantity/number/extent". It generally stands 'on its own' rather than going before an adjective/adverb.
Then, by extension "autant de..." basically means "such/the same quantity/number of...", "just as much/many...", "so much/many..." and therefore introduces a noun. So for example:
Il mange autant que moi. = He eats (just) as much as I do.
Il mange autant de viande que moi. = He eats (just) as much meat as I do.
