Cloud Engineering- Navigating Career Path as a Beginner.png

With time, the complexity of computational models has significantly increased. Practically, it doesn’t seem convenient to perform all computationally expensive tasks on individual computers. It results in increased dependence and demand for cloud services. This course introduces and navigates through possible career choices in cloud computing.

The course will introduce you to various cloud computing services and different service models. Next, you’ll navigate through different career choices in the field of cloud computing and conclude with the requirements of each career choice. 

By the end of this course, you’ll understand the basics of cloud engineering and the responsibilities of a cloud engineer—planning, designing, monitoring, and managing cloud applications within an organization. This working knowledge will enable you to become a specialized cloud engineer in cloud software engineering and cloud security.

Navigating Cloud Engineering as a Career Path

Following are the advantages of cloud-native applications:

## Microservice architecture
A **microservice architecture** arranges an application as a collection of loosely-coupled services.

Due to the microservice architecture, the components of cloud-native applications can be built and deployed independently of each other. This means a component would not be updated unless it has to be.

## Continuous delivery
**Continuous delivery** is a software development practice where code changes are automatically prepared for a release to production. It helps create an environment where building, deploying, and testing applications happen more consistently through automation.
