As someone who previously had minimal experience with the domain, this was an excellent introductory course. I highly recommend it to anyone who finds it a daunting task, to begin with.

This is a great intro course. However, the slide is too text-heavy and the most of the time the lecture reads from the slide. It will be better to present more demos and real-world examples.

It is a really great way to start a career in Cloud computing. It has provided me with the basic idea of what the cloud is and opened me up to a new way I can implement my programming skills.

The course was really good. All the topics and points were covered in a simple way. The modules were small and easy to take for a single time. The content wasn't vast or complicated

Good course but two much 'slide reading' in presenting the information. Meaning, there was really no insights outside of what was written on the slides that were read to the student.
