CLOUD COMPUTING TRAINING & CERTIFICATION

Transcription

1 CLOUD COMPUTING TRAINING & CERTIFICATION WHAT IS CLOUD COMPUTING Changing the very shape of modern computing and the Internet itself, Cloud Computing is a relatively new technology that can be defined in a number of different ways. At its core, however, it just means "running your applications on infrastructure other than your own." Computing in the cloud makes many different solutions available to you. Both the tasks and the methods used to achieve them can be quite varied. You might need full infrastructure or perhaps just a back-end to build your application with -- or maybe you just need one narrowly focused service. These needs, as outlined, actually map exactly the three main service levels available with cloud computing. Level 1: Software as a Service; when you just need a tool Level 2: Platform as a Service; when you want to develop an application yourself Level 3: Infrastructure as a Service; when you want full control BENEFIT OF CLOUD COMPUTING Many organizations aiming to become higher-performing by improving service delivery and customer experiences are considering adopting cloud services. If IT can achieve the following, then the impact on business outcomes will be dramatic: Increased agility able to deliver new IT capabilities faster Efficiencies resulting in cost savings Innovation in IT delivery Higher speed to market More rapid provisioning of services, applications, capabilities and resources to support business and IT transformation and change, and better services to customers Moving from a capital expenditure (CAPEX) model to an operational expenditure (OPEX) model Greater elasticity of infrastructure.

2 WHO SHOULD ATTEND? The Cloud Computing training and certification course is for IT professionals and practitioners who would require insights and understanding of the Cloud Computing framework including the fundamentals and the architecture. The program can be attended by anyone who would like to adopt a structured methodology in learning the next big phenomenon in IT industry - Cloud Computing. Anyone seeking to exploit the benefits of technologies in cloud computing, including assessing the architectures, components, operation and tools of cloud computing. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Understand Cloud Computing and Cloud services concepts. Describe how Cloud Computing architecture can be adopted and adapted within business organization. Register for and complete the Cloud Computing foundation examination and gain foundation certification. Making a business plan for Cloud. Cloud Computing and performance improvement. Designing the right implementation strategy. The available options (software / platform / infrastructure as a service). The possibilities offered by different options.
