Workshop introduction to cloud engineering: from Zero to Hero
In this practical workshop, you will explore the fascinating domain of cloud engineering, covering the essential building blocks of a modern software infrastructure. Through interactive presentations and guided hands-on exercises, you will get the chance to learn highly requested skills in the industry, such as container orchestration and DevOps practices. After deploying a simple 3-tier application using two powerful tools, Docker and Kubernetes, you will have developed solid foundations to embark on your journey to cloud mastery and become an outstanding professional. Important note: minimal familiarity with the command line and software development is highly recommended.
Cristiano Colangelo
I've been passionate about cloud technologies and software development for quite a while. My bachelor's thesis titled "Kubernetes Database-as-a-Service" got the top grade and kickstarted my career along with the IMPARA program, which allowed me to work part-time in a Zurich-based startup as a cloud engineer during my master's studies. I also greatly enjoyed teaching machine learning ateliers to high school students multiple times via the USI orientation service. With this workshop, I hope to spark my fellow students' interest in cloud engineering, teaching them useful and interesting skills.
