Have you ev
er noticed that clouds never stand still? Not that I’ve spent a great deal of time watching them lately, but they do seem to come and go a lot. Whoever came up with “cloud” as a metaphor for shared computing space just might have been thinking about how quickly change happens within Cloud Computing.
Who, just over a year ago, had ever heard of Docker? How many of us were thinking about running code in response to events (AWS Lambda) or applying machine learning to big data? Cloud Academy has been on top of all that.
No matter how smart you are and how strong your technical background might be, there’s no way you can keep up with all of those developments on your own. But keeping up is Cloud Academy’s mandate, and you’re definitely welcome to share the products of our hard work.
So stick around. There’s no better way to do that than by signing up for our Annual Pro plan for $495/yr or start with 7 days free, $79 per month.
