Cloud computing is a scalable services consumption and delivery platform that provides on-demand computing service for a shared pool of resources, namely servers, storage, networking, software, database, applications etc., over the Internet. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources, which can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort. This course will introduce various aspects of cloud computing, including fundamentals, management issues, security challenges and future research trends. This will help students (both UG and PG levels) and researchers to use and explore the cloud computing platforms.

🌟 "I recently completed a course on Cloud Computing and found it very useful. The course explained the concepts clearly and gave me practical insights into cloud services, deployment, and management. It was well-structured, easy to follow, and helped me build a strong foundation in cloud technologies. I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in learning about cloud computing."
Karina Malviya

The course covered a wide range of fundamental and advanced topics such as virtualization, cloud service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS), deployment models, and security in cloud environments.

Real-world case studies and industry use cases made the concepts more practical and relevant.

A bit more emphasis on hands-on labs (AWS, Azure, or GCP) would improve practical understanding.
