Put a static site in object storage behind a CDN with your own domain and HTTPS.
Launch a virtual machine, secure SSH access, install a web server and set a budget alert.
Recreate your server, network and database from Terraform, then destroy and rebuild it.
Build a small API with functions and a managed database, deployed by a CI pipeline.
Run a multi-service app on a managed Kubernetes cluster with autoscaling and dashboards.
Back up a database, delete the original and restore it, timing every step.
The same roadmap as a reading list: every stage, what each topic covers, and which ones are optional.
Most cloud servers run Linux: files, users, services and logs.
IP addresses, subnets, DNS, HTTP and TLS.
Python or Bash to automate repeated tasks.
Keep scripts and infrastructure code under version control.
On-demand servers and services, shared responsibility, regions and pricing models.
The largest provider. A common first choice for job seekers.
Strong in organisations that already use Microsoft tools.
Popular for data, analytics and Kubernetes.
Virtual machines, containers and serverless functions, and when to use each.
Object storage, block disks and managed databases with backups.
Virtual networks, subnets, route tables, load balancers and private access.
Users, roles and policies that grant only what is needed.
Describe infrastructure in code, review it and apply it safely.
CloudFormation, Bicep or Pulumi as alternatives to Terraform.
Package applications so they run the same in every environment.
Build, test and deploy automatically on every change.
Run and scale containers across many machines.
Metrics, logs and traces that tell you what is wrong and where.
Backups, multiple zones, failover and practising recovery.
Encryption, secrets, logging and secure defaults across accounts.
Balance security, reliability, performance and cost in one design.
Track spending, tag resources and right-size to cut waste.
Learn from proven designs for common workloads.
Provider certificates that are widely requested in cloud job posts.
They design, build and maintain systems on cloud platforms, automate infrastructure, keep it secure and reliable, and control its cost.
Learn one well first. AWS is the most widely used. Azure is common in companies using Microsoft. Google Cloud is popular for data. Check local job posts to decide.
They overlap. Cloud engineers focus on cloud infrastructure. DevOps engineers focus on how software is built, shipped and run. Many roles combine both.
