Cloud is the second name for enterprise IT today. With virtually everything moving to the cloud, there is a pressing need for experts who can play with the cloud. The Edureka Cloud Architect Masters Program lets you become a cloud master by helping you understand concepts of virtualization, software-defined networking, network infrastructures, physical and virtual storage, data center computing, backup and recovery technologies, disaster recovery and business continuity technologies, among others. The Cloud Architect Masters Program is priced at Rs. 54,900 (USD 949).
"The current turmoil in the job market due to automation, proliferation of Robotics, AI and many other factors, can be overcome only by carefully up-skilling to stay relevant and in-demand. While this has been our commitment to learners since day one, our new Masters Program uncovers a whole new approach where we are helping learners chart on a career path, and future-proof themselves for a reasonable amount of time," said co-founder and chief business officer Edureka, Kapil Tyagi.
"I have always believed that with the Y2K phenomenon, the global slowdown, Visa regulations, the writing has always been on the wall. Every now and then, global incidents trigger job panic. The best and easiest way to guard yourself is to continually up-skill yourself. With our Masters Program, you are not just taking a course, you are becoming a master in a sphere of technology where professionals are in extreme demand," added Kapil Tyagi.
He further said that Edureka learners have constantly embraced our courses and increasingly take our advice on shaping their technology careers. The launch of our Masters program is our response to this need. The program not just up-skills our learners on specific competencies but opens up long-term careers for the future as well.
Learners can still take advantage of Edureka's existing repertoire of 85+ courses across cloud computing, mobile development, analytics, big data, programming among others. However, the Masters Program offers hand-picked courses aimed at a specific competency as against individual skills.
"Over the years, a vast majority of our learners came with fair knowledge of industry buzzwords, but did not really have a clue on where their careers could and should take them. Questions like 'I want to learn big data but where do I start and how will it affect my career', led us to believe that it would be a great help to our learner ecosystem if we could help them storyline their career and guide them through a structured skill-based program. This is the thought behind our Masters Program. We are initially starting with Big Data and Cloud, and by end of the year, we hope to introduce 8-9 more Programs," said Head of Operations Edureka, Sumit Agarwal.
