Description
Introduction of Cloud Architecture:
This course is tailored for IT professionals and architects who want to master the principles of designing scalable, resilient, and highly available cloud architectures. As businesses increasingly migrate their operations to the cloud, the demand for well-architected systems that can handle varying loads and recover from failures is paramount. Participants will explore key architectural patterns and best practices for cloud environments, focusing on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. The course covers the design and implementation of cloud-native applications, distributed systems, and disaster recovery strategies. By the end of the course, learners will have the skills to architect cloud solutions that meet performance, security, and reliability requirements.
Prerequisites:
- Basic Cloud Computing Knowledge: Understanding of cloud service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and deployment models (public, private, hybrid clouds).
- Experience with Cloud Platforms: Familiarity with AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud, including basic services like compute, storage, and networking.
- Knowledge of Networking and Security Concepts: Basic understanding of networking protocols, security principles, and infrastructure management.
