What is Cloud Engineering?

Cloud Engineering encompasses the disciplines and techniques used to design, build, deploy, and maintain cloud computing systems. It involves a deep understanding of cloud platforms (like AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), infrastructure as code, automation, networking, security, and DevOps principles. Cloud engineers are responsible for ensuring applications and services are scalable, reliable, cost-effective, and secure in the cloud environment. Common uses include migrating existing systems to the cloud, developing new cloud-native applications, managing cloud infrastructure, and optimizing cloud resource utilization.
