Course Overview

Top

Cloud computing means implementing and using cloud technology to provide IT-related services hosted off-premise. Usually cloud services are distributed over the internet. Cloud supports businesses by offering flexible IT solutions based on clear service level agreements (SLAs). The Cloud Computing Foundation certification requires insight in the basics of cloud technology, the relation between cloud and other areas of information management, and how cloud computing is incorporated in the business. This insight is based on knowledge of the fundamental concepts behind cloud, which includes understanding cloud architecture, design, and deployment.
