Course abstract
Cloud computing has become the de facto platform on which enterprises are fueling digital transformations and modernizing IT portfolios. Todays Cloud systems are built using a common set of core techniques, design aspects, models and algorithms ?¢â‚¬â€œ all centered around distributed systems. This course provides an in-depth understanding of such fundamental distributed computing concepts and its underlying theory, algorithms and system in particular for cloud computing model. The concepts and models covered in course includes: virtualization, cloud networking, classical distributed algorithms, distributed key-value stores, advanced distributed algorithms, scalability etc. Upon completing this course, students will have intimate knowledge about cloud computing and the underlying theory of distributed systems concepts work inside clouds.
