Course Overview
CompTIA Cloud+ certifies the operational skills needed to run workloads in cloud and hybrid environments. Unlike vendor certifications tied to a single platform, Cloud+ covers the concepts and practices that apply regardless of provider.
The course covers cloud architecture and design, deployment and migration, operations and support, security controls in cloud contexts, and systematic troubleshooting of cloud-hosted infrastructure.
It is well suited to systems administrators and infrastructure staff whose environments have moved to the cloud and who need formal validation of skills they are already using.
Who This Course Is For
- Systems administrators
- Cloud engineers and cloud operations staff
- Network and infrastructure administrators
- Systems engineers
- IT staff supporting hybrid environments
