Join the growing field of cloud computing

As more and more companies look to digitize and automate business processes, there is a growing demand within the information technology industry for professionals with specialized skills in cloud computing and related experience. The recent pandemic has transformed business operations across the globe as companies were forced to adapt to online environments.

Cloud computing quickly became a way of life for businesses across all sectors as they shifted to remote work. Cloud computing – or, the delivery of computing services such as servers, storage, databases, software, etc., over the internet, or “the cloud” - allowed businesses to move operations online safely and efficiently. As of 2020, six out of 10 businesses moved their work to the cloud.

Virtually all areas of Information Technology are being influenced by the emergence of cloud computing. A key shift has been how cloud computing has enabled the integration of software development and operations. DevOps, as this new practice is called, merges these two functions so that software developers and system administrators work as an integrated unit from design to build to deployment. This is just one reason why IT professionals across disciplines, from software developers to systems administrators, need to become proficient on cloud computing platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google.
