IT Professional Certifications     CompTIA     CompTIA Cloud Essentials+     CLO-002: CompTIA Cloud Essentials+
Cloud facilitates the secure deployment of diversified solutions like IoT, blockchain, and VDI to simplify autonomous application development. In this course, you'll explore primary considerations when deploying these solutions.
You'll start this course by examining digital marketing in relation to cloud computing, technologies that help create and implement autonomous systems, and the features of blockchain-based decentralized cloud solutions.
Moving on, you'll explore the role of cloud computing in Internet of Things (IoT), working with an IoT solution built on AWS IoT.
Next, you'll deploy a cloud desktop using Amazon Workspaces and AWS Directory Service to illustrate the benefits of a virtual desktop interface (VDI) for creating virtualized desktop environments on remote server setups. You'll also explore self-service cloud computing platforms.
Finally, you'll investigate cost management and security considerations for cloud selection and implementation.
You can use this course in preparation for the CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ (CLO-002) certification exam.
