Overview/Description

When multi-cloud or hybrid deployment scenarios are at play in distributed environments, technical support engineers need to switch from a data center to a CloudOps mindset.

In this course, you'll investigate several deployment strategies for setting up multi-cloud or hybrid infrastructures. You'll examine multi-cloud architecture patterns, use cases, and business continuity reference architecture, as well as how to approach secure multi-cloud peering.

You'll also identify the services provided by multi-cloud management systems for simplifying next-gen firewall insertion and operations and the CI/CD processes for managing multi-cloud. You'll recognize the challenges of federated multi-cloud PaaS and hybrid and multi-cloud environment monitoring, design consideration for setting up multi-cloud disaster recovery processes, and the differences between cloud orchestration and automation.

Finally, you'll create and configure a virtual network, gateway subnet, VPN gateway, and virtual private cloud Elastic IP VPN device in Azure and AWS.

Lesson Objectives

Building Multi-cloud Deployments: Managing Environments

  • discover the key concepts covered in this course
  • name some prominent deployment strategies and outline how support engineers can use these for cloud deployment mechanism planning
  • list the primary multi-cloud architecture patterns along with some key considerations when creating multi-cloud architectures
  • recognize the multi-cloud business continuity reference architecture that enables end-to-end business continuity and data reuse solution architecture
  • recall the critical use cases that illustrate the need to adopt a multi-cloud deployment strategy
  • recognize the approach of secure multi-cloud peering and centralized point-and-click connectivity for managing multi-cloud networking
  • describe the critical services provided by multi-cloud management systems to simplify next-generation firewall insertion and operations and secure VPC egress by filtering outbound traffic to the internet
