Live Online Cloud Computing and Infrastructure Management
Live online, instructor-led · next cohort Nov 2, 2026 · from USD 1,700
As workloads move from server rooms to public and hybrid clouds, IT teams must design, secure and operate infrastructure they no longer physically touch, while keeping spending under control. Over ten days you cover cloud service and deployment models, virtualisation and the core building blocks offered by AWS and Microsoft Azure: compute instances, virtual networks, load balancers, object and block storage and managed databases. You will configure identity and access management, security groups and encryption, then automate provisioning with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform.
Operational sessions address monitoring and logging, autoscaling, backup and disaster recovery, patching and high availability across regions and availability zones. You also learn to read cloud bills, tag resources and apply cost optimisation practices, and to plan migrations of existing systems with minimal downtime. Hands-on labs build and manage a working multi-tier environment from scratch. System administrators, network engineers, infrastructure managers, DevOps practitioners and IT officers planning cloud adoption will find it relevant. Afterwards you can deploy and run secure cloud infrastructure, troubleshoot common problems and advise management on architecture and cost choices.

About this course
This comprehensive cloud infrastructure course equips IT professionals with the skills to design, implement, and manage cloud ecosystems at scale. Participants learn infrastructure-as-code principles, containerization, orchestration platforms, and multi-cloud strategies that drive enterprise digital transformation.
Through hands-on labs, you'll configure cloud networks, implement disaster recovery solutions, establish security protocols, and optimize cloud spending. Master monitoring tools, automation frameworks, and compliance governance to ensure reliable, efficient cloud operations supporting business continuity.
Throughout the programme, participants work through realistic scenarios drawn from technology organizations, digital transformation programmes, data-driven enterprises, and public sector IT environments, examining how cloud computing and infrastructure management is applied in practice and where it most often breaks down. Delegates will develop practical skill in designing appropriate frameworks, selecting and applying the right tools for event-driven architecture design, interpreting findings, and communicating conclusions clearly to colleagues, management and external stakeholders. Sessions move deliberately from principles to application, so that each technique introduced is practised against a realistic problem before the programme moves on — strengthening both individual effectiveness and the wider capability of the organizations delegates return to.
Training Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Develop robust cloud computing and infrastructure management frameworks that support successful implementation and measurable outcomes.
- Analyze performance using recognized evaluation methods drawn from event-driven architecture design.
- Design practical systems that strengthen accountability, transparency and evidence generation.
- Evaluate outcomes and assess longer-term impact across a range of operating contexts.
- Apply relevant tools, frameworks and analytical methodologies confidently and appropriately.
- Integrate container technologies and docker into existing organizational processes and reporting structures.
- Strengthen decision-making and operational effectiveness through evidence-based professional practice.
