Cloud Foundations
Regions and availability zones, the shared responsibility model, core services and how cloud pricing works.
- Coming soon
8 modules
Design, deploy and run secure, scalable infrastructure on AWS and Azure — and automate all of it.
The Cloud Engineer path builds a solid foundation on the two leading enterprise clouds, AWS and Azure. You'll learn the core services — identity and security, compute, storage and databases, networking and serverless — and how to provision them as code with Terraform.
Each module pairs live sessions with a hands-on project, so you learn to build environments that are secure, resilient and cost-aware. The concepts carry over to any provider, including Google Cloud.
Newcomers to the cloud, sysadmins and network engineers taking their skills to the cloud, and developers who want to understand the infrastructure under their apps.
