Cloud Computing Courses

If you are a leaving cert student, an IT graduate or somebody about to change career direction towards this area; you might want to think about Cloud Computing as an area of study. Cloud Computing is an umbrella term for a number of different technologies, all involving the internet and it’s potential to simplify the way we use computers and extend their capabilities.

In everyday life, we witness cloud computing in action via global companies like Google and Facebook. Cloud computing is about putting more of your digital material online and less on PCs or servers that are run locally.

The goal of cloud computing is to allow users to take benefit from all of these technologies, without the need for deep knowledge about or expertise with each one of them. The cloud aims to cut costs, and helps the users focus on their core business instead of being impeded by IT obstacles. The main technology behind  cloud computing is virtualisation. Virtualisation software separates a physical computing device into one or more “virtual” devices, each of which can be easily used and managed to perform computing tasks.

Cloud computing is beneficial to many enterprises; it lowers costs and allows them to focus on other areas of the business instead of on matters of IT and infrastructure.
