Overview
You will gain both a technical and business perspective of the advantages, problems and risks of using these technologies.
Cloud computing and mobile technologies offer new possibilities for the production and distribution of IT applications and services.
Rapid, elastic and scalable provisioning of IT resources allows organisations to be more innovative, agile and cost effective. In our personal lives, cloud and mobile technologies allow us to store, access and share information online.
Storing and processing information with no clear physical location or legal authority raises important concerns around governance and security. In this online module you will learn about the technical and social aspects of cloud computing and mobile technologies, and you will gain hands-on experience of these technologies.
