About the Course

Organisations have seen an accelerated move to the Cloud. Tech teams today are pushing forward to migrate business-critical digital services onto a hybrid mix of on-premise, cloud infrastructure and SaaS applications. 

Managing such heterogeneous operating environments introduce significant complexities around performance management and data resiliency. While multi-cloud ecosystems allow organizations to leverage “best-of-breed” services from different cloud providers, It is crucial that tech leaders optimise their cloud management architectures to meet service reliability demands and still remain agile as their cloud footprint grows.

Masterclass Trainer, Eugene will introduce guiding frameworks to help your operationalise and scale your cloud architecture, based on 5 key pillars of cloud operations: Operations (system performance), Network Management, App Development on Cloud, Security and Governance and Data Management. He will also recommend a variety of distributed cloud architecture design patterns most suited for different business use-cases.
