Course Synopsis

Cloud computing is a model that enables on-demand access to shared computing resources, such as servers, storage, networks, and applications, that can be rapidly provisioned and scaled with minimal effort. As organizations in Singapore and worldwide accelerate digital transformation, the demand for skilled cloud professionals continues to grow, with national initiatives actively addressing the talent gap.

This course provides participants with both foundational knowledge and hands-on technical skills to design, deploy, and manage cloud solutions effectively. Participants will explore key concepts of cloud architecture, service models such as IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS, and deployment strategies including public, private, hybrid, and community cloud.

Participants will also gain practical experience in configuring virtual networks, managing storage, deploying virtual machines, and monitoring cloud environments using Azure tools.

Completion of this course prepares participants for the Microsoft Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) and Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104) certification exams, thereby enhancing their career readiness in cloud computing.
