Most of the cloud runs on three platforms: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud. Each one offers hundreds of services, but they are built from the same kinds of building blocks: compute, storage, databases, networking and identity. Once you understand those building blocks, learning a new provider becomes much easier.
You'll take a guided tour of the core services on each platform, then compare the three to see where each one is strongest and how to choose between them. The provider names differ, so pay attention to which service on one platform matches which service on another. Watch the videos in order, then move on to Storage & Databases to go deeper on how cloud data is kept.
A guided tour of about 50 core AWS services across compute, storage, databases, networking and security.
A guided tour of about 50 core Azure services, from virtual machines to storage, databases and monitoring.
A guided tour of about 50 core Google Cloud services, including Compute Engine, Cloud Storage and BigQuery.
How the three providers compare on strengths, market position and use cases, and how to choose.
