Nice introduction to cloud computing, give it 5 stars because there is a section about emerging trends such as microservices and SaaS. Totally recommended to grasp a general idea in cloud computing.

I took this course as part of the IBM DevOps and Software Engineering professional certificate. While I enjoyed the content and learned a lot, it felt like much of the material was impersonal and hard to relate to. It felt like numerous slides were just put together and read out such that the sentences and bullet points blended together. There were case studies and expert viewpoints, but I felt like the course might have been better structured to include those directly in the relevant lessons rather than in their own separate videos. I enjoyed the final projects at the end, but I felt they could have included some more hands-on activities throughout the course to in order to reinforce obscure topics.

For the most part I really enjoyed this course, I enjoyed the ease of working at my own pace and having enough time to complete the quiz and test as I'm one of those individuals that don't work well when I have a small window of time as I feel pressured and can't think clearly. So thank you for allowing us the 30 min to complete each quiz and test. The IBM website was overwhelming for me, however, I managed to get through everything by carefully following the instructions. Thank you, overall I enjoyed the experienced.
