This specialization covers the fundamentals of networking in modern computing infrastructures. IT infrastructures have shifted towards software-driven networking and cloud services, which is changing the roles of engineers. The specialization starts with network systems principles to establish a foundation. Whether you have prior experience or not, this section will be helpful.
In Linux Networking, you will learn to build a network infrastructure using Linux, which is applicable to switches, routers, and container infrastructures like Kubernetes.
In cloud networking, you can explore the network abstractions in the cloud and seek to understand the underlying infrastructure of cloud providers.
Upon completion, you will be equipped to create complex web applications in the cloud and solve problems effectively.
This course can be taken as an academic credit as part of the CU Boulder Master of Science in Computer Science degree, offered on the Coursera platform. This officially accredited master’s degree offers:
Admission is based on performance in three prerequisite courses, not academic history. CU degrees on Coursera are ideal for recent graduates or working professionals.
