Hello,

A basic definition of cloud computing is when companies move physical information technology (IT) activities, such as file storage and on-site servers, to a virtual environment. As a cloud computing specialist, you will utilize these virtual environments to create streamlined operations for companies. A cloud computing specialist helps the company to migrate its information and services into the cloud. You analyze the companys need and help them to select the appropraite cloud technology. Your responisblity may involve providing design input, collaborating with customre services and analyst on project milestones, analyzing weakness and recommending system improvements. You must be able to effectivel weigh the potential risks of IT solutions against a companys IT needs.

You will require degree in Computer science for this

Hello aspirant,

Hi Arun...

With cloud computing becoming an integrated component of IT operations, the prospects for professionals with cloud computing skills may get brighter. Cloud computing is a type of computing in which users share computing resources through the Internet. In simple terms, it can be explained as executing applications and storing data without downloading all the necessary files onto your computer or any such devices. Instead, you can utilize the resources on the Internet or other remote servers. Cloud computing is thus a solution that delivers IT as a service and simplifies infrastructure. Cloud computing is a new technology and service that lets users access computing resources on demand, as needed, whether the resources are physical or virtual. 

As a prospective career choice in IT, you will need to acquire skills to enter this sector. This can be achieved by taking courses in cloud computing. Cloud computing courses are usually offered at different levels. Various institutes offer courses which may span over two days to 12 months, depending upon the level of the course

Once equipped with the desired qualification, you may be able to work as a cloud architect, cloud security specialist, cloud developer or cloud infrastructure manager in an IT company.

Aspiring candidates can generally enroll in a course in cloud computing after a bachelor's degree in engineering (information technology or computer science), Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA), Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) or Master of Science (M.Sc.) in IT or Computer Science. Students would be required to have a basic understanding of programming to take on this course. Any fresh graduate or IT and software professional with some working experience may take this course, provided they meet entrance requirements.

Topics covered in the course

You may take a certificate program or a diploma degree, depending upon the time and other resources available to you. You may choose the mode of study as regular, distance education or online medium. A typical course in cloud computing may include subjects like fundamentals of cloud computing, grid computing and clustering, types of clouds, cloud computing architecture, virtualization techniques, infrastructure as a service (IaaS), software as a service (SaaS), cloud management tools, securing cloud storage, network level security, introduction to data centres and storage essentials. The courses may deal with Windows Azure, VMware or Red Hat computing platforms.

Thank U......Hope this would help
