Overview
Before exploring cloud computing, the course covers foundational topics such as how computers work (including software and operating systems), an introduction to information technology, the basics of modern IT infrastructure, and an overview of in-demand cloud careers.
It then transitions into internet-connected networks, including topics such as local hosts, web servers, web applications, web security, the inner workings of websites, and the differences between static and dynamic content.
