Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services—servers, storage, databases, networking, software—over the internet (“the cloud”). This cluster focuses on equipping learners with the knowledge and skills to design, deploy, and manage cloud-based infrastructure and applications. By mastering cloud computing, professionals can take advantage of the flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness that cloud solutions offer.

This cluster is particularly valuable for cloud architects, IT professionals, and developers. Practical outcomes include improved deployment speed, enhanced system scalability, and better cost management.

Learners will explore cloud service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS), cloud architecture design, and best practices for cloud security. Tools like AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and cloud management platforms will be covered to help learners effectively utilize cloud computing in their infrastructure strategies.
