Use this course to get started with Cloud computing while also preparing yourself to take the CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ (CLO-002) certification exam. Learn how Cloud computer enables convenient on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources. Explore prominent computing models, disadvantages of in-house computing, and benefits of Cloud computing while also examining the required components to set up a cloud computing model and investigate features of cloud service delivery and deployment models. Examine the concept of shared resource pooling, the role of virtualization in cloud models, the lifecycles of applications and services deployed in the cloud, and why cloud is the best choice for resource management and application deployments. Go further by learning to recognize the shared responsibility model adopted by cloud and outline key steps involved in selecting and setting up the right PaaS solution and core components of a cloud infrastructure. Wrap up by practicing an IaaS and PaaS on AWS and Azure. Recap cloud service delivery modules to finish up this course.
