Summary

Cloud Computing is an emerging paradigm for consumption and delivery of IT based services, based on concepts derived from service catalog and on-demand service with shared resources, availability, elasticity, and pay-as-you-go. As enterprise adoption of cloud computing accelerate, by compelling advantages of higher efficiency and lower costs, rapid deployment and elastic scalability, organizations must have a strategy and plan for moving to the cloud. The course is designed for students to gain a solid understanding of the concepts, architecture, service management and business impact of cloud computing. Students will examine the pros and cons of implementing a cloud computing platform, including the benefits and the security risks, and students will learn about cloud computing standards and best practices.

Changes to Syllabus

This syllabus is subject to change as necessary during the quarter. If a change occurs, it will be thoroughly addressed during class, posted under Announcements in D2L and sent via email.

Online Course Evaluations

Evaluations are a way for students to provide valuable feedback regarding their instructor and the course. Detailed feedback will enable the instructor to continuously tailor teaching methods and course content to meet the learning goals of the course and the academic needs of the students. They are a requirement of the course and are key to continue to provide you with the highest quality of teaching. The evaluations are anonymous; the instructor and administration do not track who entered what responses. A program is used to check if the student completed the evaluations, but the evaluation is completely separate from the student’s identity. Since 100% participation is our goal, students are sent periodic reminders over three weeks. Students do not receive reminders once they complete the evaluation. Students complete the evaluation online in CampusConnect.
