Very good start to learning about Cloud Computing. It covers the wide range of topics involved with cloud computing and had many use cases and examples to help with understanding each subtopic.

well this course is amazing overall but if the instructor was on the screen and use some animation in the video it will be great and second the playback speed of the instructor in little bit fast.
