This guide will teach you the fundamentals of cloud computing architecture, including concepts, components, and principles. It’s ideal for aspiring architects, curious professionals, and students interested in learning more about cloud computing. At the end, we will also introduce you to Datavalley’s Cloud Architect course. Understanding Cloud Computing At its core, cloud computing is a technology that allows users to access and use computing resources (such as servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence) over the internet, often referred to as “the cloud.” It eliminates the need for organizations to own and maintain their own physical data centers and infrastructure. Cloud computing can be categorized into three main service models: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): IaaS is a cloud computing service that provides virtualized computing resources, such as servers, storage, and networking.

Platform as a Service (PaaS): PaaS provides a platform for developers to build, deploy, and manage apps without worrying about infrastructure.

Software as a Service (SaaS): SaaS is web-based software that you subscribe to and access online. No installation or maintenance is required.
