About Cloud Computing
What is Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing is the on-demand, online delivery of resources over the Internet with “pay-as-you-go pricing”. Instead of buying, or maintaining hard drives and servers, technology services such as computing power, storage, and databases, can be accessed on an as-needed basis from a cloud provider like Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Microsoft Azure and more. The cloud gives businesses easy access to various technologies so that they can innovate faster and build nearly anything imaginable, transforming the way that businesses operate as we know.
What are Examples of Cloud Computing?
Organizations of every type, size, and industry are using cloud computing for things such as data backup, disaster recovery, email, virtual desktops, software development and testing, big data analytics, and customer-facing web applications. For example, healthcare companies are using cloud computing to create personalized treatments for patients, and video game makers are using the cloud to deliver online games and downloadable updates to millions of players around the world.
Why Should I enroll in this Program?
According to Wikibon, the Amazon Web Services (AWS) revenue will climb to $43 billion by 2022 with Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud close behind. As cloud computing becomes a crucial part of IT and business in general, the demand for cloud skills will increase. Aspiring cloud professionals must prove that they have the skills and knowledge to be able to compete favorably in the market, and a cloud certification at Canada College is a great way to do that. Additionally, this certificate will prepare you for your Amazon Web Services (AWS) certification as well.
What jobs will I be eligible for upon completion
