Why become a Cloud Architect?
With the increasing focus on cloud computing and infrastructure over the last several years, cloud architects are in great demand worldwide. Many organizations have moved to cloud platforms for better scalability, mobility, and security, and cloud solutions architects are among the highest paid professionals in the IT industry.
According to a study by Goldman Sachs, cloud computing is one of the top three initiatives planned by IT executives as they make cloud infrastructure an integral part of their organizations. According to Forbes, enterprise IT architects with cloud computing expertise are earning a median salary of $137,957.What projects are included in this course?
This Cloud Architect Master's program includes real-world, industry-based projects on different domains to help you master the concepts of cloud architecture. Sample projects include:
Project 1: Setting up WordPress blog for your organization using defined specifications with Amazon Cloudformation, AMI and Auto scaling
Scenario: You have been asked to set up a WordPress blog for your company to meet their defined specifications. During business hours (9 a.m.-6 p.m.), the blogging team would like to use their own development copy of the WordPress instance so that any changes don’t impact the live copy.
Goals of the project: Use CloudFormation to create an EC2 instance to run WordPress with the following specification:- Instance Type: T2.micro
- Create a new AMI of the WordPress instance
- Configure Auto Scaling to launch a new WordPress instance
Project 2: Linux instance for testing new applications using EC2
Scenario: Your development team needs you to create a small Linux instance for testing a new application. You must create the EC2 instance per defined specifications. A few days later, the development team informs you that they want to move the instance into production, so they want you to change the specifications of the instance.
Goals of the project: Create an EC2 instance with the following specifications:- AMI: Amazon Linux
- Instance Type: T2.nano
- Volume Type: 8GB Magnetic
Reconfigure the instance to achieve the following specification:- Instance Type: Scale to a T2.small
- Volume Type: Increase to 12GB General Purpose SSD
- Verify whether the root volume on the EC2 instance is displaying the correct size.
Project 3: Content Distribution using S3, Cloudfront, Geo restriction and logging
Scenario: Your company wants to distribute content in the form of a website to their global offices. However, due to legal restrictions, you cannot distribute the content in France and Australia. You must find a way to prevent these offices from accessing the data. The content does not change very often; however, some of the files are very large, and you must find a solution to minimize end user latency. The last requirement is that the audit department wants to track those who access the website.
Goals of the project:- Set up a static website using Amazon S3.
- Create a bucket and enable static website hosting.
- Enable logging.
- Set up a CloudFront distribution for the static website with Access Logs enabled.
- Set up Geo Restrictions to prevent users in France and Australia from accessing the data.
- Verify that logging is working.
