Day 2: Module 1 and 2 from dicoding

On the second day, I would start study from the dicoding materials. I have study this material before but re-study to pick up and refresh the knowledge in these chapters.

Important points:

• Module 1: capex vs opex, capex is traditional way to have servers on site while opex is renting cloud solutions.
• Module 1: public cloud, private cloud and hybrid. Differences are mostly on the security, scalability, cost and flexibility.
• Module 1: type of cloud services: IaaS, PaaS and SaaS. Differences in complexity and flexibility.
• Module 2: Categories of services in Azure: Compute, Networking, Storage, Mobile, Database, Web, Internet of Things, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, DevOps.
• Module 2: 

Knowledge check:

1. Software as a Service (SaaS) -> Cloud provider is fully responsible for the services and infrastructure.
2. Azure Load Balancer  is used to balance the incoming and outgoing connections to the applications or other endpoint services.
