Moving to the cloud is easy to start and hard to run well. Teams ship faster for a few months, then face sprawling accounts, inconsistent pipelines, surprise invoices and developers who spend more time fighting tooling than writing software. Across ten days, technology leaders and senior engineers learn to manage cloud as a product with clear standards. The first week covers cloud operating models, landing zones, identity, networking, Git workflows, CI/CD, containers, Kubernetes and infrastructure as code with Terraform. The second week goes deeper into observability, SRE practices, DevSecOps, FinOps tagging, showback and rightsizing, reserved capacity, platform engineering and golden paths.
The programme is designed for cloud and infrastructure managers, DevOps and site reliability engineers, solution architects, IT directors, engineering managers, cloud finance analysts and security leads in banks, telecoms, government and technology firms. Delegates complete guided labs on a sandbox cloud environment and finish with an integrated platform project. Classroom, online and in-house formats are offered, with a CPD-accredited certificate at the end. You will be able to set direction, measure outcomes and cut waste.
Cloud platforms, delivery pipelines and cost management used to be handled by separate teams with separate priorities. Today they form a single system. Developers expect self-service environments, security teams need automated guardrails, finance leaders want predictable spending, and the business wants features released weekly rather than quarterly. Organisations that fail to coordinate these demands end up with duplicated tooling, fragile deployments and cloud bills that grow faster than revenue.
This ten-day programme gives managers and senior practitioners a complete view. The opening days establish cloud operating models, shared responsibility, governance and a well-structured landing zone. Next come delivery foundations: version control strategy, automated build and release, containers and orchestration, and infrastructure defined as code. The second half addresses operating at scale through monitoring, incident response and reliability targets, secure software supply chains, and financial operations from tagging and allocation to optimisation and forecasting. The final sessions bring everything together through platform engineering, where a small team builds reusable paved roads that other engineers adopt.
Learning combines leadership topics with hands-on laboratories, so that managers understand the work they direct and engineers see the organisational context. An integrated capstone produces a platform blueprint, a delivery metrics scorecard and a cost governance plan.
By the end of the ten days, participants will be able to:
