Cloud Computing: Build, Deploy, and Scale in the Cloud

Cloud computing delivers computing services — including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, and analytics — over the internet ("the cloud"). Instead of owning and maintaining physical data centers, organizations rent access to technology resources from cloud providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure.

Cloud computing has revolutionized how businesses build and deliver technology. Our collection focuses on the two largest cloud platforms — AWS and Azure — providing practical, certification-aligned guides that prepare you for both real-world projects and industry certifications.
