Are you looking to start your journey in Cloud Computing but don’t know where to begin? This beginner-friendly course is designed to help you build a strong foundation in Cloud Computing by combining essential theory with practical demonstrations using Amazon Web Services (AWS).
You will begin by understanding what Cloud Computing is, why it has transformed the technology industry, and how modern applications rely on cloud infrastructure. Before moving into AWS, you will learn the networking fundamentals every cloud professional should know, including how the Internet works, IP addresses, DNS, the OSI model, HTTP vs HTTPS, ports, and network communication.
Next, you will explore operating systems and Linux fundamentals, learning why Linux powers most cloud servers and how to navigate, manage files, install software, and work with the Linux terminal.
Once the fundamentals are covered, you will dive into Cloud Infrastructure, learning about Public, Private, and Hybrid Clouds, along with the IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS service models used by organizations worldwide.
The course then introduces the leading cloud providers before focusing on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Through practical demonstrations, you will create an AWS account, launch EC2 instances, configure Security Groups, connect to cloud servers, and understand how cloud infrastructure works in real-world environments.
You will also learn how to deploy and manage web servers using Nginx, work with Amazon S3 for cloud storage, host static websites, and secure AWS resources using IAM users, roles, and permissions.
By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of Cloud Computing fundamentals and practical AWS skills that prepare you for more advanced cloud technologies and cloud engineering roles.
