Great review for Cloud concepts that I needed. Probably would use it once I start studying for some AWS content since not many people use IBM but still a great way to get started in cloud computing.

I recommend this course for all those who want a basic understanding of cloud computing.

Good course, if there was less theory and more hands-on practises on cloud, the course would be much better...Thank you!!!

I wish the hands-on-project were a little more explained but other than that I felt like it was a fair introduction.

Not completely bad, but some of the lectures looked more of an IBM Cloud brochure than a neutral Cloud course.

Corso ben fatto, ma un po' banale e poco pratico. Giusto per chi parte da zero in ambiente informatico
