Cloud computing provides on-demand infrastructure, platform, and software services over the internet, with vendors managing resources and customers paying for what they use.
Discover the ownership models in cloud computing—public, private, and hybrid—and how access, control, and metered usage differ for vendors and organizations.
Learn about typical cloud service offerings: infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, and software as a service, with the provider handling hardware, platforms, or full software stacks.
Compare Amazon AWS and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure as a service, highlighting compute instances, storage options, and networking. Explore data transfer, direct connections, load balancing, and cloud marketplaces.
Explore Oracle cloud infrastructure offerings, including classic cloud, OCI, and cloud at customer, with emphasis on storage types, availability domains, and compartments in identity and access management.
Explore a high-level view of Oracle Cloud, including software, platform, and infrastructure services, access through the service console, and how to create compute instances or use databases in OCI.
Explore cloud computing by contrasting it with traditional IT, explaining provider-managed hardware and software, and highlighting pay-per-use, scalability, and private, public, and hybrid cloud models.
Explore cloud service offerings from infrastructure as a service to platform and software as a service, including BYOL licensing and provider-managed software.
Explore the benefits of public and hybrid cloud, including multi-tenant architecture, pay-as-you-go economics, standardization, and consolidation, while addressing security concerns and provider-managed infrastructure.
Explore virtualization fundamentals by comparing traditional metal deployment with hypervisor enabled virtual machines, highlighting isolation, resource allocation, and how Moore's Law enables flexible scaling of RAM and other hardware capacity.
Explain virtualization as creating virtual machines with a hypervisor to improve resource utilization, isolation, and rapid provisioning using VM images and shared storage across hardware.
Explore type 1 and type 2 virtualization, compare hypervisor control and virtual machines, and distinguish hosted versus desktop setups; learn how templates, cloning, snapshots, and high availability enable cloud deployment.
Understand ssh key-pairs, consisting of a public key uploaded to the cloud instance and a private key kept by you, to securely log into linux-based compute and manage per-user access.
Learn the fundamentals of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, including OCI classic and cloud at customer, and how data regions and subscription models shape service availability and isolation.
In this course you will learn about the concepts of Cloud COmputing and the various service offerings provided. Cloud computing is a generic concept and there are many providers with different services. At the core, the concepts remain the same, the terms used by each provider may be different. You wlll get a clear understanding of the various terms associated with cloud computing.
You will also learn some fundamental concepts of Virtualization and Basics of Oracle Cloud.
There is also a video giving you a comparison of AWS vs Oracle CLoud IaaS offering and a video about the offerings in Oracle Cloud.
You can get the course slides at Amazon Kindle titled Oracle Cloud Infrastructure - Part 1 ( Part of a Book Series Titled Unravel OCI)
