About this learning path
The 'Core Principles of the Distributed Cloud' Learning Path offers a comprehensive exploration of distributed cloud technology. We embark on a journey through the hypothetical scenario of Alex Bookstore, starting as a small brick-and-mortar shop and evolving into a retail giant by harnessing the power of cloud deployment models, distributed cloud, and ultimately embracing edge computing architectures. Beginning with Module 1, we delve into the foundational concepts of cloud deployment models and cloud computing. Module 2 takes a deeper dive into distributed cloud architecture, unveiling its pivotal role in modern IT infrastructure. In Module 3, we introduce learners to Edge Computing within distributed clouds, highlighting its value and real-world applications. Module 4, 'Distributed Cloud for NetOps Persona,' empowers NetOps professionals to explore distributed cloud's potential for multi-cloud networking, featuring a hands-on Multi Cloud Networking Lab. Join us on this captivating journey of knowledge and innovation, where the cloud and the edge converge to shape the future of IT infrastructure.
