Internship – 3-part course series

This specialization is designed for beginners interested in cloud computing. We’ll start with the basics of containers, build on that knowledge by learning how to organize a collection of containers, and finally, learn how to set up and manage infrastructure using code files instead of manual configuration.

Hands-on Learning Project

Learners experience a hands-on approach to all topics. You will see firsthand how these tools and ideas work. The assignments will guide you through the process of installing, configuring, and using the tools learned throughout these three courses.

Cloud management requires the use of a cloud service provider.
