Why Cloud Computing?
Cloud platforms provide scalable, flexible, and cost-effective infrastructure for modern applications:
- Scalability: Scale resources up or down based on demand
- Global Reach: Deploy applications across multiple regions worldwide
- Cost Efficiency: Pay only for what you use with flexible pricing models
- Managed Services: Focus on application logic while cloud providers handle infrastructure
- High Availability: Built-in redundancy and disaster recovery capabilities
- Innovation: Access to cutting-edge services (AI/ML, IoT, serverless, etc.)
Getting Started
Each cloud platform guide includes:
- Core Services: Compute, storage, networking, and databases
- Architecture Patterns: Best practices for cloud-native design
- Security: IAM, encryption, compliance, and security best practices
- Cost Optimization: Strategies to minimize cloud spending
- Deployment: CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code
- Monitoring: Logging, metrics, and observability tools
Multi-Cloud Strategy
Many organizations adopt multi-cloud strategies to:
- Avoid vendor lock-in
- Leverage best-in-class services from each provider
- Ensure business continuity and disaster recovery
- Optimize costs by choosing the most cost-effective platform for each workload
