Cloud Computing & the Role of a Cloud Architect
What is Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing is a form of internet-based computing that provides shared computing resources and data to computers and other devices on demand. It is a way of delivering computing power and storage capacity over the internet. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort.

What is a Cloud Architect?
A Cloud Architect is a professional responsible for designing, developing and managing an organization’s Cloud Architecture. A Cloud Architect is responsible for the planning, design, implementation and management of the organization’s cloud infrastructure and services. They are also responsible for creating and maintaining policies and procedures related to the organization’s use of the cloud. The Cloud Architect has a deep understanding of cloud computing technologies and is able to design and deploy solutions that meet the organization’s needs.

The Benefits of Cloud Computing
* Cost savings: Cloud computing reduces the cost of hardware, software, and IT staff.
* Scalability: Cloud computing allows organizations to quickly scale up or down depending on their needs.
* Flexibility: Cloud computing provides organizations with the flexibility to use the resources they need, when they need them.
* Security: Cloud computing provides organizations with enhanced security features such as data encryption and authentication.
* Reliability: Cloud computing provides organizations with reliable, always-on access to their data and applications.
