On Day 1, participants receive comprehensive coverage of essential cloud computing principles, viewed through both technological and business lenses. This module is organized into distinct sections, each reinforced by practical, hands-on exercises.
Day 2 shifts focus to technical aspects associated with cloud computing platforms. Rather than diving into implementation or coding specifics, the course maintains a conceptual approach, emphasizing cloud service architecture, security threats and technologies, virtualization techniques, and data processing strategies.
Day 3 offers a technical perspective on foundational cloud computing infrastructure. The session examines Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) environments as composite patterns made up of distinct and shared components. Structured as a guided exploration of these architectural layers, the module describes primary and shared elements, explaining how these building blocks are assembled and realized through cloud computing mechanisms and best practices.
Building on Day 3, Day 4 delves deeply into elastic, resilient, and multi-tenant technology architectures, as well as specialized solution designs such as cloud bursting and cloud balancing. By studying architectural mechanisms, industry technologies, and design patterns, the course details both core and extended components that enable elasticity, resiliency, and multi-tenancy—key characteristics of cloud platforms. Leveraging native and enhanced scalability and failover features, it describes specialized architectures that facilitate bursting between cloud and on-premise environments, as well as runtime load balancing across clouds for optimal performance and reliability.
On Day 5, participants engage in a series of exercises and problem-solving scenarios designed to assess their ability to apply the knowledge gained from the previous sessions.
