Moving to the cloud does not by itself deliver speed or savings. Without sound architecture, automated delivery and cost discipline, organisations end up with sprawling accounts, slow releases and bills nobody can explain. This ten-day programme gives engineers and technology leaders an end-to-end route from planning to operation. Early days cover cloud adoption strategy, the shared responsibility model, landing zones, identity and network design, and migration approaches across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud.
Labs then build continuous integration and delivery with Git workflows, containers, Docker and Kubernetes, infrastructure as code with Terraform, secrets management, observability, site reliability practice and DevSecOps. The closing days introduce FinOps, covering tagging, cost allocation, rightsizing, commitments and unit economics, and platform engineering, where golden paths, self-service portals and internal developer platforms reduce friction for product teams. Cloud engineers, DevOps and site reliability engineers, solution architects, software team leads, IT managers and technology officers in banks, telecoms, government and start-ups will benefit. Classroom, online and in-house formats are offered with a CPD-accredited certificate. Afterwards you can present a cloud and platform roadmap and run a working pipeline for a real service.
Cloud services are now the default place to run new applications, and the expectations on engineering teams have risen with them. Releases are expected weekly or daily, systems must stay available, security findings must be fixed before launch and finance departments want to know why the monthly invoice keeps growing. Organisations that treat these as separate problems often end up with tool sprawl and friction between development, operations and finance.
This programme joins the disciplines into one practical path. Participants begin with cloud strategy and foundational architecture, then automate how software is built, tested, secured and deployed. They provision environments as code, run containerised workloads on Kubernetes, and instrument systems so incidents are detected and learned from. A dedicated block introduces FinOps practice so engineering choices carry visible cost, and platform engineering principles so shared capability is packaged as a product for internal teams.
Work is dominated by laboratories on a shared cloud sandbox, with a continuous case project that grows from a simple application into a governed, observable and cost-managed service. Participants close the programme by presenting a roadmap tailored to their own organisation and receiving feedback from facilitators and peers.
By the end of the programme, participants will be able to:
