Topics covered
The course follows the six areas CompTIA tests in CV0-004:
- Cloud architecture: cloud models, virtualisation, networking and containers
- Deployment: infrastructure as code, migrating workloads and setting up resources
- Operations: lifecycle management, backup and recovery, and monitoring
- Security: vulnerability management, identity and access, and compliance
- DevOps fundamentals: pipelines, source control and automation
- Troubleshooting: fixing deployment, network and security issues
Who this course is for
- Cloud administrators and cloud engineers
- Systems and network administrators
- IT support staff moving into infrastructure work
- DevOps team members who want broader cloud knowledge
- Anyone preparing for the CompTIA Cloud+ exam
The course also suits people who already work with one cloud provider and want a broader, provider-neutral view of how cloud systems are designed, run and kept secure.
Before you start
You do not need cloud experience, but you should be at ease with networking, operating systems, security basics and virtualisation. It helps to know TCP/IP, DNS, storage types and permissions. CompTIA suggests two to three years of hands-on work as a system administrator or cloud engineer for the exam itself. If you are still building that base, Network+ and Security+ are useful first steps, and a free cloud account is a handy place to practise what you learn.
About the CV0-004 exam
CV0-004 is the exam for the CompTIA Cloud+ certification. CompTIA is a global, vendor-neutral IT certification body. Cloud+ shows that you can look after and improve cloud infrastructure across more than one provider. It covers designing solutions, migrating workloads, securing cloud systems and fixing problems. Because it is vendor-neutral, the skills carry over to AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud and private clouds. The exam also checks that you understand compliance needs and the shared responsibility model, which decides who secures each part of a cloud service. Check the official CompTIA exam objectives before you book, as CompTIA updates its exams over time.
