Cloud Computing Basics course description:

(WSP 79)

This course is designed for professionals who want to understand the fundamentals of cloud computing from a business perspective. The course will start with the business definition of the cloud and its relationship to user experience. From there, we will discover how the management and administration of the cloud is different from traditional computing systems and what kind of skill set is required to administer the cloud platform. The course will also focus on establishing the cloud strategy within a business context. This will lead us to focus on governance issues and business processes; the administration of cloud services; support, monitoring, and billing; documenting a cloud strategy, which optimizes expense structure, improves security, and supports conformance; standards and protocols for the cloud; and management of devices that connect to the cloud.

To understand how cloud computing is fundamentally changing business, we will look at the positive outcomes and any risks associated with the cloud (e.g., security risks). We will also focus on the mitigation of existing risks, including governance structures in IT that allow for successful cloud implementation. Our journey will help you enable cloud computing in your organization.
