This specialization is a four-course sequence of hands on project-intensive immersive courses aimed at computer professionals to give them an in-depth experience in developing different layers of a Cloud computing infrastructure including software defined networks, distributed runtime systems, application development, and network function virtualization. Each course (roughly 4-5 one hour videos) is organized as discussion of the technical details pertaining to that topic (from selected readings from research papers and other online resources). Each one-hour video is followed by a “hands-on workshop” assignment (roughly 2 hours of development work) which involves developing code and experimentation using a cloud platform of the concepts discussed in the one-hour video lecture.

Muy buen curso para entender como funcionan las redes en un centro de datos virtualizado. Y asi introducirse a las redes SDN dentro de esos entornos.
Good info on SDN and how they apply to datacenters. Some of the quizzes were very difficult, as some of the answers seem counter intuitive and are not presented in the lectures. As of December 2024, the workshop in Module 2 is impossible to complete, because the SDN hub tutorial is broken (it took me to a sketchy website that my anti-virus blocked). Looking at the discussion forums, this is an issue others have experienced from at least a year ago. I didn't bother with the other workshops, because they look old and not well maintained.
Quizzes were very hard to pass as the phrasing and wording in the lecture were not in context with the question.
In quiz 4 there is an error in the question
The course is not well structured, it seems to be all over the place.

A must have course if you are trying to learn about Cloud computing and Software Defined Networking. The course provides very interactive environment through the quizzes and hands-on workshops.
You will DEFINITELY not pass the quizzes on your first try. But it will encourage you to watch the videos again and then understand the topics more deeply. And so, you will do better in your next try.
I took this course as I wanted to implement SDN using Ryu controller on my project work. After completing this course, I am confident that I can complete my work successfully.
This course was awesome. I'm very grateful by the oportunity.
Thanks for all.

Great course, but difficult quizzes for me.
Una excelente metodología de estudio
Very informative
Very Good Course
