Cloud Infrastructure

Our Courses

This course provides a comprehensive overview of cloud infrastructure architecture and operations, with a strong emphasis on real-world implementation across platforms such as AWS and Azure. Students will learn how to provision virtual machines, configure networking, manage storage, and secure cloud environments. The curriculum highlights essential infrastructure components, compute, network, and storage, as well as automation tools and cloud-native services essential for modern application deployment. Learners will work with Infrastructure as Code (IaC), identity and access management, load balancing, and monitoring tools to build resilient, secure, and scalable systems. Through hands-on labs and guided projects, the course connects fundamental theory with applied cloud engineering practice.

Overview

Delivered over a structured learning pathway, the course begins with the fundamentals of cloud computing and infrastructure design, then advances to key services across major cloud providers such as AWS EC2, S3, VPC, IAM, and Azure Virtual Network and Compute. Students will learn how to set up and manage virtual machines, design network architectures, configure storage, and implement identity and access controls. Later modules introduce Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, alongside basic automation, monitoring, and cost optimisation strategies. The course features weekly labs, practical configuration exercises, and concludes with a capstone project where students design and deploy a comprehensive cloud infrastructure environment.

Career Opportunities

Graduates of the Cloud Infrastructure course will be prepared for high-demand roles such as Cloud Infrastructure Engineer, Cloud Administrator, Systems Engineer, Cloud Support Associate, and DevOps Technician. These roles are essential in sectors ranging from finance and healthcare to SaaS and enterprise IT, where scalable infrastructure is vital for business operations. The course also provides the foundation for pursuing specialised certifications like AWS Certified Solutions Architect, Microsoft Azure Administrator, or Terraform Associate, and opens doors to senior roles in cloud architecture or platform engineering.
