- Course in a Nutshell
-
There are four generic case studies available for Cloud Computing. They cover Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), and Data/Storage as a Service (DaaS). Each case study module in this course is approximately 90 minutes in length and provides a briefing on Cloud Computing covering business and technology aspects. Ask your training consultant about industry specific case studies or about commissioning your own custom application case study.

Application Case Study Introduction
A high level overview of the topic and the briefing.
Infrastructure as a Service (Iaas)
- Background: History and case study subject business and market overview.
- Drivers: Why did the case study subject make the decisions they made.
- Architecture: What is the system design for the case study application?
- Procurement and Implementation: How did the case study subject obtain and implement their application?
- Migration and Training: How did the case study company move from their old system to their new system and how was training accomplished?
- Operations: What are the ongoing operational issues of the case study application?
- Return On Investment (ROI): How does the case study company calculate their return on the investment of time and money that they made and how does that match real returns?
- Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): Taking into account all possible elements, how much does the application cost?
- Expectations and Lessons Learned: What were the expectations at the beginning of the project and what lessons were learned during the project?
- Looking Ahead: What are the case study subject’s future plans?
