Description


Overview

Cloud computing has revolutionized how businesses build and scale technology infrastructure. Instead of relying on traditional on-premise data centers that require heavy investment in hardware, maintenance, and management, organizations now use cloud platforms to access computing resources on demand. Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s leading cloud provider, offering a broad set of services that empower companies to architect scalable applications, deploy workloads efficiently, and secure systems using modern industry best practices. This program introduces core cloud concepts, AWS service categories, deployment approaches, and security foundations necessary for building reliable, cost-efficient, and well-architected solutions in the cloud.

 

Outline

A. Introduction to Cloud Computing

  • Definition and evolution of cloud computing
  • Benefits: scalability, elasticity, cost efficiency, global reach
  • Types of cloud computing services:
    • IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service)
