Cloud technologies occupy more and more fields of computer technologies. It solves a bunch of problems and is totally suitable for all kind of businesses: from small startups to vast enterprise.

There is always an issue, which faced all web servers – high load or lack of traffic at all. In the first case, customers might experience slow work of a service, which cause customers drain and as a result less revenue than expected. The second case leads to losing profit as well, since even without customers, business has to maintain its own servers. Companies determined, that using someone’s computing power is much efficient rather than maintaining your own. It allows you to use “pay as you go” partnership. It means, that a company pays only for that amount of computing power which were used.

There are three main providers of cloud technologies: Microsoft, Amazon and Google. The main role takes Amazon with its AWS (Amazon Web Services). Since demand for such platform is growing, it leads to lack of certificated specialists, who can create, operate and maintain such serverless solutions. Amazon offers to pass an exam, to get a certificate. It helps to validate technical skills and cloud expertise. Having such certificate will help to grow a career.

State University of Telecommunications takes into account the necessity of such specialists, that’s why Department of Computer Technologies included cloud technology in the program for future specialists. This program helps students to get familiar with cloud technologies and techniques, which are used by companies while they are building high load and complexed services.
