Internship – 3-part course series

This specialization is designed for learners with a partial technical and business background who are interested in developing a knowledge base in cloud computing. In these courses, you will cover the three main models of cloud computing:

  • Software as a Service (SaaS)
  • Platform as a Service (PaaS)
  • Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

Additionally, the distinction between public and private cloud will be discussed. The goal of the specialization is to help you determine which cloud computing models are right for your needs, and to provide you with the knowledge to tackle more advanced topics in computer science.

Hands-on Learning Project

Learners will be exposed to demos of cloud computing models (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) that simulate some of the most common real-world applications and platforms. These demos will help learners determine which models are right for their needs.
