Cloud Engineer

Users are allowed to access services and software through the internet instead of their computers in the cloud. Cloud engineers generally build, maintain, and troubleshoot the cloud computing environment or infrastructure. 

Cloud computing platforms are used by cloud engineers and other IT professionals for their cloud architecture and infrastructure. Typically, these products allow for storage, application management, and performance tracking in addition to cloud computing services.

Cloud architects, Cloud system operations engineers and Cloud developers are different types of cloud engineers.

Cloud engineers should have solid knowledge of the three main types of cloud computing including software-as-a-service (SaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS), and infrastructure-as-a-service (Iaas). They also requires system administration skills, programming skills, cloud security skills, problem-solving skills and leadership skills.

Cloud engineering improves the overall agility of a company as well as its capacity to adapt to changes in the marketplace. It improves flexibility, provide better mobility, enhanced customer experience, boosted security, seamless scalability and easier collaboration. The exact solution the company needs in real time can be configured by cloud engineers. They can also easily change it down the road. Application programming interfaces (APIs) can be used to facilitate communication between apps.
