Cloud Computing

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) is the web service that is pioneering cloud computing by providing resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It gives any developer or IT professionals the complete control of their computing resources and allows them run on Amazons proven computing environment. They are looking for passionate, experienced professionals to join us and to help us define and deliver high quality solutions in a hyper-growth environment where priorities evolve rapidly.
Amazon EC2 is a fast-paced, results-driven group where we strive to create the best customer experience possible. They are looking for passionate leaders who thrive when working in a rapidly evolving environment on hard problems with smart people who are all focused on delivering goals together. The current list of job openings for Amazon EC2 by roles which you can search on their website.

Migrating to cloud computing is one of the current enterprise challenges. This technology provides a new paradigm based on on-demand payment for information and communication technologies. In this sense, the small and medium enterprise is supposed to be the most interested, since initial investments are avoided and the technology allows gradual implementation. However, even if the characteristics and capacities have been widely discussed, entry into the cloud is still lacking in terms of practical, real frameworks. This paper aims at filling this gap, presenting a real tool already implemented and tested, which can be used as a cloud computing adoption decision tool.
You can start from the beginning even if you have bit knowledge (strong command) over information technology. Hence, the scope is huge. The best thing is that you don't need any particular degree to work in this technology.

Hello,
There are particularly two aspects, one when you look from the normal consumer point of view other from the company/industry point of view.
When we say of technology, no technology will be thrown away its just the tools will become much more advanced and powerful.
These cloud services have the back end supported by lots of codes and programming languages. For example if one needs to create a PaaS (Platform as a Service) to simplify a SQL database, then the system is most likely to be made with the help of Mongo. The value of the PaaS is that some of the common DB Administration tasks and System Administration tasks will be absorbed by the service or if you may want to function a AWS RDS service for higher performance of database you may option for Open Source technology.
Hence, in short cloud has made the technology quicker and smarter but not made technologies obsolute from an enterprise point of view.

Hi,
After some research, I have been able to shortlist some of the best colleges that offer courses in cloud computing in India. These are a few:
PDM College Of Diploma engineering. & Tech. Kar Jind
Sir Padampat Singhania University, Udaipur
Chandigarh College Of Engineering And Technology, Chandigarh
Srm University, Sonepat
University Of Technology & Management, S East Khasi Hills
Cloud computing sounds like an offbeat course which I am sure is what makes it really interesting. I hope my suggestions help you to find a college of your desired choice.
For further information. I would request you to follow the link below:

Here, you can find the detailed information about the colleges and courses offered by them.
Wish you all the best.

Its depends like,
Yes - If you are the guy who is making his living by clicking "Next" in OS or Software installation.
No - If you are the guy who is making his living by solving real problems (like how to script above actions and make sure they work perfectly in 99.9% of time)
Apart from this, I have a separate view that is 'No'. In fact, cloud computing is creating more jobs. Traditional enterprise IT is moving away from soiled infrastructure with admins managing each of those silos (network, storage and servers) to admins managing software defined data centers (SDDCs) with (hopefully) a single pane of management. The single pane is yet to be realized, but if you are a soiled admin, I suggest you gain expertise in managing the SDDCs holistically.
Quick edit: I guess the old soiled admin jobs are slowly going away, but new ones are being created, where bigger skill set is required.

Hi,
I feel really good to see lots of interesting questions to answer one after another. Thanks to you for asking this.
In next five years, you will see companies alloting very tiny space for their server room, SMEs and startup companies they will be completely engrossed in their product improvement and business development and what about their IT infrastructure? Everything will be taken care by cloud computing providers for sure. The Iaas, Paas model will support their applications and Saas product with salable, 100% up time even way better performance.
Companies won't be worried about even any downtime because DevOps and automation will take care this headache with Docker container model combination with Python, Jason, chef script.
The big data, SAP HANA will rule the world in order to a large scale of analytic and no SQL model. It will be far easy to analysis large Logs even 1 TB data analysis. AI/ Machine learning, IoT will bring a completely new paradigm shift. You and I will have maybe 1 GBPS internet connection to connect our gigantic infrastructure and manage without any system admin because everything will be server less and orchestration model.

Mainframe computing - Flexible infrastructure that can support virtualized environments; scalable support for big data analytics and new applications; simple migration processes; and reduced total cost of ownership compared to a private cloud. The advantage of mainframe computing is higher reliability. If an internet connection goes down, or if the host servers go down, the client will be unable to access its data.
Cloud Computing - Scattered across many individual servers; cloud can be accessed from anywhere, businesses can increase access to the server as they grow simply by adding further clients. They can even extend this access to mobile devices. On cloud service provider, you're effectively putting your trust in that service provider that your data will be safe, as it will be kept on servers that are owned by them.

If you are willing to do cloud computing courses, there are many courses you can opt, but I would recommend you only some courses which have very high demand right now in the industry. Now a days, there are many organizations, technical education institutions, universities, and leading IT companies offering certifications in cloud computing. But, the question arises which is the best cloud computing course?
Salesforce Certified Professional: The demand for experts is growing rapidly, and companies are looking for proven professionals. Businesses that use cloud-certified specialists see smoother deployments and better use of their salesforce investment. Obtaining a salesforce certification will boost your career and enable you to contribute more toward your company's success. Obtaining a certification will boost your career and enable you to contribute more toward your company's success
Amazon Certified Solutions Architect: It also offers a Certified Solutions Architect Professional; AWS Certified Developer Associate; AWS Certified SysOps Administrator Associate and AWS Certified Devops Engineer Professional
VMware Certified Professional (VCP): The VMware Certified Professional (VCP) is VMware's oldest and its former entry-level certification. As VMware's product portfolio has grown over the last several years, the company decided that a single certification was not sufficient. Now, VMware Certified Associate (VCA) is an entry-level certification, and several VCP tracks exist, enabling VCPs to specialize. Advanced tracks also exist to show greater depth of knowledge.
