In this section, you will learn about what cloud computing is and different terms. By the end of this first lecture, you will have become familiar with many cloud computing terms and gained a general idea about what cloud computing is.The following section is about cloud computing platform types. There are lectures for each platform type, such as infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS), software-as-a-service (SaaS), data-as-a-service (DaaS), desktop-as-a-service (DaaS), and function-as-a-service (FaaS).The next section is about different cloud computing deployment models. The section starts with an introductory lecture about cloud computing deployment models. Then there is a separate lecture for each cloud computing deployment model, including community and multi-cloud.The following section is about deploying applications on the cloud computing platform. It follows with a section on the advantages of cloud computing.The next section is about virtualization, virtual machine, and hypervisor. The section also includes a lecture on how to install Ubuntu Linux virtual machine on Oracle VirtualBox.The following section is about serverless computing. Learning serverless computing in cloud computing is essential nowadays with the inclusion of function-as-a-service components in most cloud-based modern architectures.The next section is about Docker. It covers Docker at the introductory level. Since this is a very hands-on section, you will gain solid foundational knowledge about Docker, such as the installation of Docker on Mac, DockerHub, and day-to-day Docker commands from the DevOps perspective.Once you have gained a solid understanding of cloud computing then you start learning AWS.First, in this section, you will get a conceptual understanding of what AWS is, and its overview.
